False Advertising Hit !.
Co-ops Ask Federal Control
Over Misleading Puekuging

/ WASHINGTON, d. C.-(CNS)-
A spokesman for the nations longest
string of consumer-owned shopping
centers said the coop can't keep VI
with "the steadily rising volume Of
false and misleading advertising ane
it's ''high time" the government
helped.
When a food manufactures ships
his products across state lines. the
government now requires him to
show the net weight on each package
and to list the ingredients in their
order of prominence.
This isn't enough, the Cooperative
| Leagues executive director, Jerry
Voorhis, told a Senate subcommittee
studying packaging and labelling
practices, June 20. The chain of IL
coop shopping centers that encircle
the city here, Voorhis said, believe
the government should also see that:
" Net weight is printed at least
one fourth as large as any type on
the label and that it appear on the
front;
v Net weights of similar products
are standardized; and
v Fractional ounces are abolished.
Voorhis said the coop, Greenbelt
Consumer Services, also believes the
government should prescribe names
for package sizes-for example, |
small, medium, and large-and abol-
ish such meaningless terms as jumbo, |
giant, economy, family, and house
hold size.
Congress should also protect con-
sumers from paying "a dispropor-
tomato amount for the package,
Voorhis said.
Voorhis said changes in food |
labelling and packaging are often
calculated to confuse or deceive
the buyer" A Chicago coop, which
operates the biggest food store in
the city, noted these changes in
the past g months:
Brand A baby foods contained
S ounces, now have II ounces. Same
price.
Brand C shredded wheat cereal
increased the size of the box, reduced
the contents from IL to 1Ok ounces.

He said the Montana grasshopper

The bill will fill the housing credit

Up TO now, the Farmers Home Adj

loans only for farm houses and build

Almost as soon as the first shock
of heart attack is over, the typical
patient bombards his doctor with
such questions. Lurking behind
them is one he is often afraid to
ask: ''Am l going to be an invalid
for the rest of my life?"
The reassuring answer is that
the vast majority of heart-attack
victims are able to return to the
same kind of life they led before
the attack. They eat normally,
perform their usual work and re-
turn to their previous leisure ac-
tivities.
The return to normal life is a
gradual one. When a person has
heart attack a portion of the muscle
is destroyed and replaced by scar

only 1872 per cent we're delin-
quent. This compares with a
rate Of ITO per cent q year

totaled an all-time high of
110,034 and wage-earner groups

frightening, what do these fig
ures really mean? One answer
is that the bankruptcy total
