.FIC Shifting
Policing Policy

The Federal Trade Commits
sion Is shifting emphasis from
punitive to preventive action In
policing trade practices. Chair
man John w. Gwynne indicat-
ed today.
He outlined this approach In
q speech prepared for deliv-
cry before the anti-trust Sec
ton Of the New York state
Bar Association In New York.
An ETC spokesman called the
address significant"
Mr.. Gwynne said emphasis
is very strongly placed on
charting a course for the flu
ture." rather than on punish
ing businessmen for false ad-
vertising and other violations
of law.
To apply this principle. he
continued. "the commission is
spending considerable time and
energy" on trade practice con-
ferences. and has established
guides" for advertising Gig
arettes and automobile tires.
Conferences with industries,
he said, have resulted In set
Ting disagreements (which
might otherwise have led TO
costly and protracted litiga-
ton"
Mr.. Gwynne also called at
tention to q trend toward "ad-
justment Of industry wide
problems on an industry-wide
basis"

The worried American
people do not realize that

matters or in diplomatic
dealings (the latter constitu-
tionally are in the hands Of
the Chief Executive) cannot
be assumed by two elected
bodies numbering 53l indi-
viduals 100 Senators and ABS

provide on their own initia-

Yet few people know the

There is really nothing

Fundamentally. the main

have argued that the concept

In his attractive young
Secretary Of the Interior.
Fred A. Seaton Of Nebraska.
President Eisenhower has his
closest approach 70 . grass
roots politician among his
cabinet.
The President and his
party are. however, foreclosed
from any real use Of Mr..
Seaton's experience and tall
ents because the Eisenhower
policies the Secretary must
administer are unpopular In
the n States directly affected
by them.
These policies are largely
shaped BY the assistant to

tons were made at the time
that "unification" Of this kind
would not work, but IL has

Now a healthy discussion Of

. In peacetime. the main task

question always Is how much
TO buy and how fast To get

takes q little longer to reach

it's customary to give every

Some Of the responsibility
for the delay In putting deci-

on the doorstep Of Congress.
Under our system. there il
