The television industry's chief
watchdog today called on broad
casters for a voluntary good
behavior" program to forestall
Government regulation.
John E. Fetzer, Kalamazoo,
Mich, chairman Of the Televi-
sion Code Review Board, warned
the industry cannot abide
blatant responsibility"
He addressed a conference
this morning of the National
Association of Radio and Tele-
vision Broadcasters convention.
The convention ends tonight.
In a prepared address, Mr..
Fetzer said there is no reason
now, and there will be none in
the future, for further regula-
ton unless we ourselves
through indifference - provide
it. H.
Basic Tenets In Code
"On way to avoid such tragic
pattern of surrender is through
voluntary observance of the basic
tenets of good behavior con-
tanned in the television code. I
commend that course of action. :"
Mr.. Fetzer said $50 TV broad
casters and 4 networks subscribe
to the code. and that some of
the nations big advertisers have
modified their TV copy to meet
its requirements.
Experience has shown that the
broadcasters who have been
most mindful of the code are
those who, for the most part,
have been most successful COM
mercially, he added.
He said the members of the
code board have heard many
complaints, explaining:
I'VE have heard from the vari-
Gus mathematical crime counting
societies, from the investigating
committees, the organized drys,
and the organized vets, from the
diverse groups seeking to prevent
cruelty to animals, from doctors,
dentists, ministers of nearly all
faiths, astrologists, lawyers and
school teachers.
Questionable Programs
II think it possible that we
have heard too little from the
broadcaster himself and per-
haps far to little from the pub
lie at large. 1t is likely that the
average member of the general
public. uninhibited by pressure
groups, is directing any COM
ments he may have elsewhere
rather than at the station, the
network or the code board"
Mr.. Fetzer said it is equally
conceivable" that the public
thinks television is doing "a
creditable job and is not in such
full rebellion as some would lead
us to believe" But he added:

Troubled Restouroteur in Burglary Case
Admits He Sometimes Steals From Himself

BALTIMORE, May rs P.-
An Ocean City restaurant op-
orator, who claims he doesn't
know if he's a burglar or not
and sometimes steals from him
self, has presented Judge Her.
man M. Moser with a 'puzzling
case"

fencing until he studies doctors

Your Child Can Swim
If You Help Him Along

Your child can learn to swim.
It's easy, according to Stanley
Tinkham, coach of the champ
ionship-winning Walter Reed
Swimming Club. The club boasts
among its members national
champions Shelley Mann and
Mary Jean Sears.
Here are some pointers these
experts offer that will help your
child learn to swim.
Start him when he's young
by familiarizing him with water.
Play with him in waist-deep
water. Encourage him to duck
under water first. Some teachers
have children bring up stones
or coins as an incentive. Or have
them blow bubbles underwater.
Hold Him Up
Once the child is not afraid
Of the water. hold him up or
have him grasp some support
and teach him to kick his legs.
When he can do this. walk beside
him as he kicks his way across a
pool. arms stiff in front of him
and head under water.
Next. show him how to move

.N Code Chief Warns
Industry Of Regulation

"The television industry has
it's responsibilities. There remain
far too many programs of ques-
tionable value. 1t is inevitable
that television will be held &C
countable for its decorum IN the
matter of production"
Yesterday the associations
president, Harold E. Fellows,
complained Congress singles out
the industry for "f1attering but
unwelcome attention" while ig-
noring newspapers.
Cites Neuberger Measure
He cited a recent measure in
troduced by Senator Neuherger.
Democrat, of Oregon. It would
require political speakers on
television to reveal if they were
using makeup or prompting de-
vices.
Logically, therefore, one
would assume that the Senator
would undertake a companion
measure requiring the less fas-
tidious office-seekers to an
nounce that they. had combed
their hair before posing for the
press" Mr.. Fellows said. But
no such thought apparently en-
tered the Senator's mind"
Congressional committees in
vestigating juvenile delinquency
he said, have called broad
casters on the carpet ito account
for so-called crime programs on
the air. Meanwhile, Dick Tracy
continues daily to perforate his
victims until they look like tired,
battered old colanders."
Listing several other cases, he
continued, II don't intend this
to be an attack upon the press
for I admire its invulnerability
and fully support its aggressive
position.
But would ask: Why? Why
are the broadcast media singled
out for this f1attering but un-
welcome attention?"

The Troveier's Notebook
By Jacques FutreIle. Jr.
The Stars IroveI Editor

iUe Stat . uoFSi GoHoi
Frigid and slushy weather has
its compensations. Among other
things, it can provoke a decison
to end it all by taking holiday
where the sun is still friendly,
palm trees rustic, in soft breezes
and beaches never close down.
Quiet, home-bound evenings in
duced by repelling weather, also
can lead the prospective 1855
vacationer into the pleasure of
planning his summer travels.
And for those contemplating a
trip to Europe, it is high time
they begin putting vague
thoughts into solid. on-the-
record form.
II the forecasts Of experts are
to be believed-and there is no
reason to doubt them on that
score-trips abroad by United
States citizens will set a record
in 1855. Most estimates put the
number well above half a mil
lion.
Bookings Aheod Of 1854
Advance transatlantic book
ings by air and sea already ex-
ceed those of comparable date
last year. AS the overwhelming
majority of liner travel is in the
cheaper accommodations, that
means the preferred space and
sailing dates for the budget
traveller are narrowing.
The next several weeks may
determine whether the economy
minded traveller must shift his
dates or begin a time consuming
campaign to get precisely the
ship, the timing and the price
tag he wants. The fact that
there will be more ships and
more plane seats available in the
summer doesn't assure success of
eleventh-hour decisions.
So these wintry days can pay
off in settling on plans for mid
summer holidays abroad.
Whot to Expect
The forecasters of vacation
travel in 1855 also have some
other predictions that might
serve as tips to summer holidays.
If you are in that class loosely
described as the average travel
er," for instance, you will:
Be cost-conscious to the point
of holding prices to last years
level or lower.
Take shorter vacations but
more of them, by automobile.
Find more overnight accom-
modations Of acceptable stand
ards, permitting a chance to be
chooSy.
Give more serious thought to
a camping vacation, which has
been winning more followers as
equipment undergoes refine
ments and sites are developed.
Have more of a chance of
completing a motor vacation
without serious accident.
Deoth Rote Cut
The Safe-return thought comes
from Andrew J. Sordoni. presi-
dent Of the American Automobile
Association, who has forecast

Dates and Space to Europe

that about rs million Americans
will take vacation trips within
the United States this year. OF
these. he said. almost GA mil
lion will travel by private au-
tomobile.
Explaining the possibility Of
fewer vacation fatalities this
year. Mr.. Sordoni pointed to
figures for the first eight months
of 1854, covering the peak sum-
mer travel months of June, July
and August.
The number of deaths per 100
million motor vehicle miles was
reduced to IL in the eight month
period. he pointed out, adding
that this is the lowest ratio for a
like period since the automobile
became a major factor in the
transportation field.
"As motorists have demon
strated they could vastly improve
the traffic safety record" he said.
"there is no reason why this fine
accomplishment cannot be con-
tinued and even bettered during
! 1856"
Quicker Tours Abroad
One world wide travel agency
sees in 1865 a trend toward
shorter tours of Europe, "al-
though seven and eight-week es-
corted tours of Europe continue
in big demand"
The interest in shorter trips
indicates more middle-income
buying of popular-priced Euro
pean holidays. These generally
fall into a five-week category.
with air crossings cutting the
tour to the pattern Of a three
week vacation. The agency also
sees the demand for shorter
trips as indicating a trend to
visit Europe more often and not
stay so long.
The same agency notes a drift
| toward longer trips to the west
ern United States and Canada.
A statement says: Two weeks
used to cover our most popular
offerings to the West from Chi
cago, but in the last two or three
years demand. has grown for
longer escorted tours of three
and four weeks"
Another worldwide travel
agency makes the observation
that a marked increase in travel
is developing to North Africa,
the Middle East and westward to
Hawaii and Japan. The Hawaii
Visitors Bureau predicts about
los 900 visitors in 1855.
Roll Fare Cut Coming
The first indication that rail-
road fares will be reduced again
for summer travel to Florida has
come from the Seaboard Rail-
road. Thirty-day coach fares,
with so per cent off on the re-
turn portion of the trip, will be
reinstated May l and continue
through November 80.
