The Peoples Meeting Place

A WAY BACK IN 1859 The
"A Star made an error. Per
haps 1t was excusable. Two
girls advertising for jobs di-
rected inquirers to the wrong
home address.
The Star apologized: "The
family whose street number
was given by mistake sent a
message begging discontinue
ance of the advertisement since
30 persons have pulled the
doorbell in two days."
This episode in an era before
streetcars and buses was a tip
of on Star classified ad pulling
power.
BY 1890 it was not unusual
for a single ad to draw as
many as 500 responses. During
the World War II apartment
shortage, one vacancy spanked
TOO queries, including so tele-
grams, in a 24-hour period.
Ads Mirror Confidence.
Consumer confidence, key
stone of Star classified ad
success, was reflected recently
in a record Sunday section of
64,851 lines Of ads requiring
q pages. Last year 1,017,000
ads appeared.
Reader confidence has
emerged from careful SCREEN
ing Of each ad to discourage
unethical advertisers. When a
questionable ad turns up, it
is referred to the Better Busi-
ness Bureau for investigation
and report.
The vast bulk of Star want
ads" has mushroomed on a
voluntary basis. Advertisers
either come to The Star lobby,
visit one Of the IS neighborhood
branch agencies, or telephone
one of the SO ad-takers.
While The Star carries more
than half the individual ads
printed in Washington news
papers, it gives special con-
sideration to obituaries and
church notices. The Star leads
the Nation with its three or
four pages of church notices
each Saturday.
Peoples Meeting Place"
Many years ago the late
Newbold, business
and later president
Of The Star, called this medium
"The Peoples Meeting Place:
Thousands of people meet
each other every day through
the classified advertising col
umns of The Star. In this
great public market the people
list their wants, they name
their terms, they strike their
they close their deals.
Here there are no middle
men, no soliciting agents, no
high-pressure salesmen.
Here Is democracy, free enter
prise, free trade"

Prince Georges Drops
Charges Against Dunn

Prince Georges County authori.
ties dropped two robbery charges
against a former District police
man today on grounds that he
was insane at the time the acts
were committed.
The defendant, George ]. Dunn
%, was arrested for Maryland
authorities last Wednesday, a few
minutes after three District rob-
berry charges were dismissed.
The dismissa1s were influenced
by testimony of Government psy-
chiatrists that Dunn was mentally
unbalanced at the time of the
crimes.
In Hyattsville Police Court to-
day, Assistant States Attorney
Woodrow A. Shriver asked for dis
missal on the grounds that prose-
cution would be useless in view OF
the psychiatrists' findings in an
other jurisdiction. He said he was
acting under instruction of States
Attorney Carlisle j. Lancaster.
However, Dunn remained in jail
under $4,000 bond. He is being
held for New York City authori-
ties on a robbery charge detainer.
The prisoner has indicated he will
oppose extradition to New York.
