.Continuing the discussion of the
advertising business begun in this
column yesterday. I should like to
explain something of the work of
the advertising agency. It is an
important instrumentality in mod
ern business, . yet . what it is and
how" it works is not very well
kovn.
- Advertising itself is very old. Its
original . fo r m .was undoubtedly
word-of-mouth,- which remains
very poteat means of selling goods
and services With the advent of
writing., drawing and printing, ad
vertising took new forms: The
hand-painted or lettered sign; the
pictured symbol like a boot for
the - shoemaker or a horseshoe for
the blacksmith. With printing, ad
vertising leaped . to the .printed
page,- as circular, handbill, or
space, in a paper published at reg
uiar intervals. Its variety expand
ed untI we have today such forms
as -the "sandwich"; man wearing
signs front and rear as be parades
in a crowd, the billboard, the news
. paper, magazine, throwaway,
printed forms, radio, television,
skywriting, illuminated signs, win
dow signs, painted signs, etc.
At firsts advertising was quite
simple. In early day newspapers
the. ads were chiefly of the ' sign
type: J. 'Jones, Boots and Shoes'
or ?;T. .Smith. Staple , and Fancy
Groceries. They might ride
through from one year's end to an
other without change. Other adver

Secret Papers
Show Rift
on
Disarmament
WASHINGTON W A dozen
disarmament documents released
Friday night showed Russia and
the allies as far apart as ever on
the question of controls to make
sure nobody cheats. ..
The hitherto secret documents
snowed fundamental agreement on
many counts by all five member
nations of the United Nations Dis
armament Commission which has
been meeting at London since Feb.
25. -
But they also showed a wide gap
on the issue of ironclad guarantees.
The West wants a control agen
cy in being, with wide powers to
go anywhere and check up on any
thing, before the first, gun is
scrapped under any disarmament
program.
Russia continues vague about
powers of a control agency. In
deed, the Soviets argue that na
tions distrust each other so much
they would not stand for unlimited
inspections, so controls are "mere
formalities" and raise false hopes
of security.
Ttte split was wide open on this
key point one so vital that Amer
ican officials said agreement could
be reached one very other issue
and the talks could founder on that
point alone.
But the documents, when com
pared with a Soviet disarmament
plan being baHyhooed by the Krem
lin, show at least four major con
cessions by the Russians.
They indicate, too,' that Moscow
has sprung at least three surprises,
It was because of the ballyhoo
that the documents were released
Under terms of a United Nations
resolution of last Nov. 4, five na
tions have been meeting in secret
disarmament talks at London. .

PORTLAND (l Oregon now
has official authorization to use
its Salk anti-polio vaccine supply
to vaccinate more than 70,000 first
and second grade children and
those who took part in last year's
tests. .
' After getting the word Friday
Dr. Harold rickson, the state
public health officer, asked the
National Foundation for Infantile
Paralysis for assurance that Ore
gon would receive an additional
supply to give the second shot
within two to four weeks after the
first
' If this assurance, is not given.
a State Board of Health spokesman
said, consideration will be given to
using the supply now available to
inoculate half as many children.
For example, he said, that might
mean giving two shots to only first
graders with the other children to
be vaccinated later.
It was indicated that Monday,
May 23, is the earliest possible
date on which mass inoculations
could begin. But no date has been
set definitely.

WASHINGTON Wr The Penta
gon sounded a warning Friday that
Russia is cutting into this country's
lead in production of jet powered
atomic-hydrogen bombers.
The appraisal came in a cryptic
statement issued by the Defense
Department with .White House ap
proval.' It was based on an analy
sis of Air ' Force intelligence re
ports made after the Soviets re
cently flew groups of intercontin
ental type bombers over Moscow.
Defense officials were officially
silent about the reason for putting
out such a report at this time. But
it was known some Pentagon quar

isms of both the defense program
and the information which has
been made available about it by
the administration.
One official reminded reporters
only Thursday Sen. Symington (D

Gen. Taylor .
Appointed as
Army Chief
WASHINGTON (Jl President
Eisenhower ; Friday chose Gen.
Maxwell D. Taylor, soldier-diplomat,
paratrooper and philosophy
student, as his new Army chief of
staff.
The 54-year-old Taylor, a modern
arms tactician now serving as
commander in the Far East, wjH
succeed Gen. Matthew B. Ridgway
who is retiring after speaking out
against the President's idea of a
smaller army in this atomic age.
Ridgway notified tne Army ne
intends to retire, from active, duty
on June 30 a month and a half
before his term is up as Army
chief of staff.
He reached the 60-year age limit
for general officers last March 31,
but was allowed to continue on his
two-year term under a provision
which permits the retention of a
certain number of retirement-age
generals.' This had Eisenhower" s
approval; " -
However, last Monday Ridgway
informed the Army's adjutant gen
eral that he desired to be retired
June 30, -when he-will have com
pleted 38 years4 service.
''Taylor, a taQ, handsome fighting
man, campaigned in some of she
fiercest World War II battles in
Europe. Later he went to ( Korea
as 8th Army commander) then
moved up to commander in chief
of U. S. and allied forces in the
Far East. -
Eisenhower selected Gen. Ly
man L. Lemnitxer to succeed him
in that post. ' '
Reports, which have persisted
without- denial from the general,
are. that Ridgway will become a
corporation executive after his mil
itary, retirement.
