Truth in Advertising
"The Credit for Building the Erst Car Belongs to Mr. Elwood Haynes"
(The above statement is from a letter to A. G. Seiberting, Vice President and General Manager
of The Haynes Automobile Company, Kokomo, Indiana, by Richard 11. Lee, Special Counsel
of the National Vigilance Committee of the Associated Advertising Clubs of the World. )
President Gcphart Believes Immi
grant Girls Represent Stronger-Minded
Klemcnt.
I
In the midst of a rambling discus
sion as to the old and much-mooted
question, "Why do girlo go wrong?"
Mrs. G. J. Frankel of the women's pro
tective division of the police bureau
led the annual conference of the social
workers' association of Oregon at the
public library yesterday to consider
tacts in place of theories.
"There would be many less unmar
ried mothers if Mary was not allowed
to stay all night with Mbel." Inter
jected Mrs. Frtinkel.
"Consider the situation: Mother for
gets to telephone Mabel's mother, and
If she did she might find that Mabel
was presumed to be Btaylng with
Mary. "
"Now, mother does not need bluntly
to cast suspicion on darling Mary by
asking if Mary is really with Mabel's
folks, but she can have a little mes
sage tor Mary to deliver to Mabel
personally between 9 and 10 P. M.
"And that little message, and the
fact that Mary has been taught to
expect that little message, will do
vonuers for the Marys, and Mabels of
the world."
Conditions Are Intolerable.
Mrt. K. S. Routledge tossed a bomb
among the social workers who were
considering a study oi delinquent
women in Oregon by declaring that
from her houseboat at Willamette
moorings she had teen nude young
men and women go by In canoes on
Sundays. .
"Conditions on Ross Island on Sun
flays are bestial," she asserted. "The
Island Is lined with canoes, vacated
by young men and women, and one
cannot land thereon without stum
bling over the voung people."
Jacob Kanzler, chairman, requested
that a joint investigation be made by
the police department, represented by
Mrs. Frankel and by the public wel
fare bureau.
Quite a furore arose over the dec
laration by Miss Janet M. Pendergast
that delinquency 'in women was more
marked in American-born girls than
in those of foreign birth. Miss Pen
dergast cited Investigations made at
The Cedars and in the city Jail. It
was in the discussion over Miss Pen
dergast's statement that Mrs. Fran
kel and others spoke.
A. R. Gephart, president of the
social workers' association, expressed
the belief that those who immigrated
were stronger-minded than their fel
lows who did not emigrate.
Forty Per Cent Delinquent.
But Dr. George Rebeo presented the
other side by declaring that, in
some foreign colonies he had In
vestigated, as many as 40 per cent
of the marriages were those made
just prior to the birth of children.
"During my investigation of The
Cedars. 1 found the average age" of
the young women there to be 17
years. livery inmate was born in
America and with but two exceptions
1 found this to be the case in each
institution.
"At the city jail I found one Rus
sian, one Swiss, one Mexican and one
Englishwoman, against 27 Ameriqan
women and at the countjr jail one
Russian woman.
"What is it that the foreign girls
living in America have that makes
them less susceptible to delinquency
than the American working girl? In
the Louise home, for the .past two
years, we have not had a single case
of a French, Swedish, Norwegian or
.Danish girl among them."
One speaker suggested that there
were a number of foreign aid socie
ties which prevented delinquency be
coming public knowledge. Judge
Kanzler urged that were there an
Inquiry as to how many delinquents
were children of foreign born, there
would be a difference in the nature
of the statistics. .
Mrs. Kate M. Maguire discussed
Juvenile delinquency and Miss Emma
DuBruille told of the relationship be
tween mental and sex problems in
family welfare.
Dr. R. E. Lee Steiner, superintend
ent of the Oregon state hospital at
Salem, discussed changes needed in
present laws with regard to border
line cases and the insane. Dr. J. -N.
Smith. told of the care of the feeble
minded, and discussion was led by
Dr. William House and Dr. Wilson D.
McNary. Dr. Chester L. Carlisle told
of the progress of the state survey.
"It requires political pull to get
committed to the asylum for the"
feeble-minded," said Mr. Gephart.
"There is now a 14 months' waiting
list. The institution should be en
larged so as to include those people
who are now a burden on various
Oregon communities."
LABOR SUPPLY UNEVEN
Tradesmen Must Forsake Calling
and Help With Crops.
SALEM. Or., June 2g. (Special.)
There would be no labor shortage in
Oregon If all persons now unemployed
would accept positions in lines of In
dustry other than their calling, ac
cording to C. U. Gram .state labor
commissioner.
"The trouble with the labor situa
tion today, said Mr. Gram, "is the
fact that the average tradesman will
not engage in any other line of ac
tivlty. For instance, an, unemployed
plumber, bricklayer or printer will
not go into the orchards and
pick: fruit. Not until this situation
is remedied will Kbor conditions be
come entirely satisfactory in Ore
gon or any other state.
Through a questionnaire system re
cently put Into effect by the state
labor commissioner he believes that
plenty ' of men and women will, oe
available in Oregon to handle the sea
son's crops.

IMPROMPTU FLORAL - PAG
EANTS GIVEN BY 2 GROUPS.
Little Son of Frank Branch Riley
Organizes One and Robert
Richmond Starts Other.
There were two parades in Port
land yesterday that most people didn't
hear about, where nobody had to fight
for places to see it, and where there
were no policemen along the line of
march. One was held on Lucretia
street, where seven children appeared
in a grand flora! parade all their
own. The other was a bigger one on
East Forty-second street, near Tilla
mook. There were 12 children in that.
On Lucretia street the children
called the parade the "Rose Carnival."
Billy Riley, son of Frank Branch
Riley, 61 Lucretia street, thought
about it first. So he organized the
otljer "kids" of the immediate .neigh-
Dornooa, seven or tnem. inere were
two other "Billys," Billy Bowles,
nebhew of J. C. Bowles, president of
the Northwest Steel company, and
little Billy Mohr, 57 Lucretia street.
There were four little girls in the
parade, too, all dressed in pink and
white, with doll carriages and tri
cycles, all decorated. They were
Caroline Mohr, Jean Bishop, Peggy
Riley and Lillian Rosenstroh.
Over on Forty-second street, Rob
ert Richmond, 6, decided to have a
parade. So he built a battleship on
wheels, all decorated with flags and
pennants, which he called the "Ore
gon." With this heading the parade.
he assembled 12 other children from
the neighborhood and passed in re
view down two blocks on Forty-second
street. Two wild Indians, Charles
Hull and Bruce Meyers, were in the
parade, which included decorated bi
cycles, tricycles and wagons.
The judges decided that the grand
prize should go to me oamesrup

COURT DECIDES IN FAVOR OF
ADVERTISING DENTISTS.
Revocation or Licenses Would Be
Arbitrary and Unfair, Says
Opinion Rendered.
BOISE. Idaho, June 28. Special.)
Advertising by dentists in this
state, either In newspapers or other
wise, cannot be construed as grounds
for revoking their- licenses. . by the
state dental board, through the law
enforcement department. This is the
opinion of Justices Reddoch and Mc
Carthy of the third judicial district
court. They made their findings in
overruling the demurrer of the state
to the application of 13. plaintiff den
tists for a restraining order to pre
vent the state board from revoking
their licenses. The dentists are: Drs.
A. M. Abrams, Parker, Green. Beale,
Forde, Wolfe, Mohney, Martin, Mc-
Kae, DeGroot, Gadsby, Van Auker and
Roby. They had been haled before
the board to show cause why. their
licenses should not be .revoked on
the grounds of fraudulent advertls
ing. This was particularly true with
regard to Dr. Abrams, who had ad
vertised "twilight sleep" for the ex
traction of teeth.
Regarding the. right of dentists to
advertise in newspapers, the opinion
says: . ,
"A person may freely speak and
write upon any subject he chooses so
long as he does rot , corrupt public
morals, welfare or safety, or injure
any person in character or reputa
tion."
It is Jikely that the ruling of the
district court will be appealed from
and the case carried to the supreme
court for final decision. v

evidence of the constructive good being
done for advertising by the National Vigilance
Committee of the Associated Advertising Clubs
of the World. .
Truth in Advertising" is the motto, the slogan,
and the code of the members of the Associated
Advertising Clubs.
While The Haynes Automobile Company has
never participated in .the discussion over who
made America's first car, further than to state
that Elwood Haynes invented, designed and
built it, and to rest its case with history, we admit
a glow of satisfaction as we take occasion to ex
press to the advertising men of the world our
felicitations to their National Vigilance Com
mittee upon the thoroughness of its research and
its conscientious insistence upon the verities in
public statements. -
Although the original Haynes automobile, in
vented, designed and built by Elwood Haynes, is
a United States Government exhibit in the Smith
' sonian Institution at Washington, D. C, bearing
an official tablet giving its history, nevertheless
the accuracy of this Government statement has
been directly and indirectly questioned.
We asked the Associated Advertising Clubs of
the World, through their National Vigilance Com
mittee, to sift the entire matter, knowing it would
be done utterly without bias, for this reason:
Advertising is a force upon which we, in common
with every progressive concern in the world,
depend. We know what advertising has done
for us. We know how jealously the Associated
Advertising Clubs guard the good name of adver
tising. We know the sacredness of their alogan
"Truth in Advertising." -

cial.) The highest output record of HI Ifa MfcJMJ
The National Vigilance Committee went at its
work conscientiously and thoroughly; it spent
much time upon its investigation, in order that
its finding should be final and decisive. The result
is embodied in the letter from Mr. Lee to Mr.
Seiberling, and in the straightforward statement:
"The credit for building the first car belongs to Mri
Elwood Haynes."
This decision lends added emphasis to the prin
ciple of character which is associated in the public
mind with the name of Haynes.
No matter how good advertising may be, it can
only be as good as the product it advertises. It
can only succeed with the product. We are natur
ally gratified that the Haynes has made good on
its advertising. We give advertising full credit
for carrying to the people, the message of the four
essential factors of character beauty, strength,
power and comfort which are established in the
Haynes. Our advertising led the prospective car
owner to expect beauty, strength, power and com
fort in the Haynes. The car itself completely exem
' plified this character. The result is that to-day the
demand for the new series Haynes is just as far
ahead of our production as it wi: a year ago.
Every advertising man will be pleased to know
this, because Haynes advertising is a faithful echo
of the car itself. It reflects the policies and prin-
ciples of The Haynes Automobile Company, and
isjustasmuchourproduct as is the Haynes car itself.
The Associated Advertising Clubs of the World
have done great work, but never performed a
greater act for the highest good of advertising
itself, than when their National Vigilance Com
mittee aligned the forces of good advertising with
history, with recorded facts and with the U. S.
Government's own official statement in the final,
irrevocable decision that to Elwood Haynes
belongs the credit for building America's first car.
