The United Press associations of New York, has on file here today a suit in the federal court for an injunction against O. K. Shlmansky to prevent him from sending out antl-prohlbl-tion propaganda and other publicity matter in such a way as to make it appear to come from the United Press. Shlmansky has been conducting a publicity campaign mainly in behalf of the liquor Interests of late through a concern incorporated in Ohio as the "United Press Association Com pany." In sending out propaganda to newspapers throughout the coun try, however, Shlmansky used the liame "United Press Association," omitting the word "company." The petition on tile here today asks that the Injunction perpetually re ktraln Shlmansky from using the name "United Press," or "United Press Association.", unless accompan ied with the following explanatory statement: "Not connected with the United Press Associations." John H. Perry, counsel for thn United Press, supported his petition with a large number of affidavits from prominent newspaper publish ers, and several members of Con gress stating they received liquor propaganda literature from Shlman sky under the name of the "United Press Association." "The Cleveland company is a paid publicity bureau," said Perry today. "Its aim is to get advertisements for special interests Into the newspapers as news matter. Recently It has been psld by the liquor Interests. The Clevelnnd company has been Bimply masquerading under the name of the United Press. As a consequence the United Press has been flooded with letters from Its clients objecting to the untnir use of its name. A gross deception has been practiced upon the United Press clients and a fraud and imposition upon the public gen erally. Wo propose to put an end to such unfair practices."
