Ad Agency Executive
DefendsC Combination
Newspaper Rates
BY the Associated Press

KANSAS CITY, Feb. 11.-An
advertising agency executive told
a Federal court jury hearing the
Kansas City Star antitrust trial
that combination rates on news
papers are advantageous in ma
tional advertising.
He also said forced combina-
tion advertising rates, which re-
quire an advertiser to buy space
in both morning and evening
editions of a newspaper at a
single price. are well recognized
and accepted"
The executive, William c.
Matthews of Young and Rubi-
cam, Inc, New York. was a wit
ness yesterday for the defense
in the Stars trial on charges of
attempting to snonopolize and
actually monopolizing the dis
semination of news and ad-
vertising in the Kansas City area.
Emil Sees, the newspapers ad-
vertising director, also is being
tried on similar charges.
Advantages Explained.
Mr.. Matthews said the forced
combination rate "has the ad-
vantage of making 1t possible
for an advertiser through his
agency to purchase all of the
available circulation offered by
a given newspaper on one rate"
He testified that repetition of
an ad "is important in emphasiz-
ing to the people who read or
listen that the product is some
thing that they should pur-
chase"
Earlier in the trial, some Gov
ernment witnesses had testified
they were forced to buy adver-
tising under the combination
rate in both the morning and
evening editions of the Star al
though they only wanted space
in one.
Mr.. Matthews also testified
that where an advertising
agency has a combination rate
available 1--WE buy it as an
economy as we can buy circu-
lation that dominates the field"
Figures Presented.
He said that in 1850 news
papers with forced rates num-
bered 179 and that in 1852 there
were 176. In reply to a ques-
ton by Earl Jinkinson, chief
Government counsel. he said
that was out of between 1,700
and 1900 daily newspapers.
IF it forced rates. is such a
well-established practice. why
don't more than 10 per cent
have it?" Mr.. Jinkinson asked.
For the simple reason" Mr..
Matthews replied, that a Ger
tain condition has to exist be-
fore a combination of any kind
is possible. You can't have a
combination without having at
least two to combine and the
majority of cities in this coun-
try do not have more than one
newspaper.
The third witness to take the
stand in behalf of the Star was
George E. Gautney of Arlington,
Va, a radio consulting engineer.
He testified on the area covered
by Kansas City radio stations.
The Stars only other witness
since the defense began presen-
tation of its case Monday was
Raymond A. BarrowS, the news
papers secretary and a member
of it's Board of Directors.

Music Booming
Ralph .Flanagan's band
played at the Houston Auto
Show. He is hardly . native
son because he was born in
Lorain. Ohio, and his pretty
wife comes from Bayonne, N. j.
Flanagan, who was Perry
Como's arranger for three
years, Is the most famous Of
the few surviving touring
bands.
On March Is next. Flanagan
will have completed I'VE years
Of touring, covering $4,000
miles. They travel In six auto
mobiles, in preference to a
bus, and . truck carries in
strumentS and music stands.
Ralph figures that he's bought
over 100000 gallons Of gas and
exactly 13 sets Of band uni
forms.
The band business on the
road spurted in 1854 after a
long slump and his bookings
in 1855 indicate. that this will
be the greatest year in his
tory. For q two-day date at
University of Florida, Flanagan
got $6.000-the same sum that
he got at Duke.
Flanagan, thoughtful, poised
and an excellent administra-
tor, Is completely unlike the
popular conception of q zoot-
suited band leader.
OF the 223 songs in the
Flanagan library, he has ar
ranged 80 per cent Of this
music. and has made not less
than ID RCA Victor albums.
Only Glenn Miller, Benny
Goodman, Tommy Dorsey and
Artie Shaw ever approached
this prodigious output.
TITS q rough life," con-
fesses Ralph. Continuous
travelling, change Of water,
food and climate make
exacting demands. But. this
Is real show business and
there is no substitute for per-
sonal contact with audiences

Clint Murchison. These were

gain control of New York Gen.

proxies for 800, 900 shares on
the eve of the crucial voting.

panion, Richardson pioned
Murchison. He said: Clint,

troll of some Yankee railroad.
For the life of me / can't think
of the name Of It,
"Murchison asked him to
hold the phone while he looked

Railroad. While you're on

gave the stock to. I've got

While this may be q Texas

In the State.

Cullen Of Fort Worth, gave
82.5 million to the University
Of Houston because the team
beat Baylor University In foot
bali. His public relations staff
later denied that the football
victory was the basis Of the
gift, but the Texans prefer to
believe the original story.
Cullen's gifts to University Of
Houston total $50 million and
he also gave 81 million to
Baylor.

printed 1t as 81 million. The
next day, according to Texans.
Cullen called the editor Of the
paper and said mildly: "You
made an honest mistake.
Rather than embarrass you.
I'll give 81 million. But from
now on, I wish to goodness
your reporters would be more
careful because things like
this raise hell with my petty

A message challenging leaders

unite so that "peace among

tion among nations might be
achieved was adopted by the
Second National Conference on
Spiritual Foundations yesterday.
More than 200 church min

prove the six-point message.
The motion was presented BY

ference, describes itself as a Ma

the Protestant, Catholic, Jewish
and Greek Orthodox faiths.
The message declared the
world today agrees "that the
basis of true civilization is belief
in human dignity and the in
trinsic God-given value OF every
human person"
Lip-Service BY Some
!, But it points out that many
regimes processing to be "for the
masses and for humanity
merely give Zip service and hol-
low phrase-making" to this con-
cept.
1T is constantly being weak
ened and diminished as a moral
force by the hypocrisy and sell
fishness from which few human
hearts are fully free" the mes
sage declared. "Yet everywhere,
and increasingly with the moving
tide Of global events, the idea
lof mans inherent worth and in
Ialienable rights is spreading and
