Advertising Roundup
B A. D. ADDISON
Herald and News Advertislna Manager
ONE of the current slugging matches is that
between Robert R. Wason, president of
the National Association of Manufacturers,
against the OPA, and Oregon Senator Wayne
Morse, defending it.
Morse charges that the NAM
Is "inspired by greed" In its
"nefarious fight" against OPA.
.Wason declared that "OPA Is
the parent of all black mar
kets," and said if "Morse is
not too greedy for votes he
will Initiate the legislation to
dethrone John L. Lewis and
restore the American people
to power."
rina onnA lflft tnK thai thf
OPA boys use at every op- ADDISON
portunity is that the NAM spent $400,000 for
advertising the manufacturers' side of the ques-
, tion in their "nefarious fight." That's a laugh
to any advertising man because for years the
War Bond division and many other bureaus
. (including OPA) have been drumming it into
us that advertising is a great, legitimate means
of expressing opinion in the good old Amer
ican manner.
Bowles Advertising Man
THE real laugh, though, is that OPA Guiding
Light Chester Bowles is the original Horatio
Alger boy of advertising. He and Will Benton,
now assistant secretary of state, made their
millions in the advertising agency, Benton and
Bowles, and retired in their thirties. OPA is
guided by the keen mind of one of the world's
- most successful advertising men, and everyone
knows that the OPA is a billion dollar opera
tion, add to that the perfect advertising theme
(everyone, of course, wants to keep prices down
on what he buys) and NAM'S nefarious $400,
. 000 looks slightly inadequate.
Advertisers know that continuity, continually
keeping at it, is one of the most important in
gredients of success in any program. Again,
you'll have to hand it to OPA. If anyone hap
pens to look back in The Herald and News
files to August 7, 1943, they would find this
advertising column devoted to the report that,
EVEN THEN, OPA was campaigning to con
tinue after the war.
(As some cynic said, we'll probably continue
to spend a dollar to keep the price of a four
bit item down to six-bits ... if there ARE any
of these items.)
About Liquor Ads
EVERT J. TUNING, pastor of the Sprague
River Friends church at Sprague River,
"There Is one thing In your newspaper that
is of grave concern to me: that is the liquor
advertisements. I am sure that you are aware
of the influence that the drinking of liquor has
on the individual and on society in general . . .
I do not understand how any Editor who knows
the truth about this evil can prostitute his paper
for the promulgation of it . . . Your liquor ads
insinuate that only comfort, ease and enjoyment
are to be obtained from the drinking of liquor.
They make it appear that only the intelligent
and successful people of our country drink it;
that the alcoholic is only a sick person and that
liquor has nothing to do with him being in that
condition. It may be that there is a degree of
comfort and ease and enjoyment in the use of
it and that there are some successful people
who drink it and that an alcoholic is a sick
person, but why do you not tell that the final
result .of the use of it brings discomfort, disease
and sorrow; that the successful who drink it
eventually become failures; that the alcoholic
Is a sick person because he drinks liquor? Why

do you not sny that it is poison and warn all to
beware of it? If you intend to publish the
truth you will have to do this. No doubt the
distillers would not let you publish the truth.
Then if you arc an honest publisher you will
have to refuse their money." etc.
Well, there ARE a very few papers which
refuse advertising of alcoholic beverages, not
ably the Sa 1 e m Statesman, Ex-Governor
Sprague's paper. The Herald and News ac
cepts this advertising because it believes that
the Eighteenth Amendment proved that you
can't improve a person's moral habits by dictat
ing to him; that it's better to have the stuff
handled by the OLCC and advertised in the
papers than to have it handled by bootleggers
and advertised by word of mouth.
Supervised
WHILE we commend Pastor Tuning for his
stand, we think he exaggerated Just a wee
bit on the advertising copy. Liquor advertis
ing is closely supervised by the liquor commis
sion, and the mention of a few of the points
in its long list of regulations might be interest
ing. IT FORBIDS:
"Any statement that is false or misleading in
any material particular.
"Any statements design, device, or represen
tation which Is obscene or indecent.
"Any statement, design, or device representing
that the liquor has food value, or the use there
of has curative or therapeutic effects.
"Any advertisement which includes the like
ness or caricature of a woman, child, or family
scene.
"Any illustration or representation primarily
appealing to children, such as comic strips and
children's pets.
"Any illustration depicting athletes or athletic
events in which the participants of games or
events are portrayed.
"Any illustration of public characters, past
of present.
"Any advertisement of alcoholic liquor re
ferring to any religious holiday or festival, or
any symbol, sign or other character associated
with such holiday or festival."
That's Just a few but probably too much
has been said already.
Remember the old jingle? "Whiskey when
you're sick makes you well whiskey makes
you sick when you're well."
Old World Blocs
By DeWITT MacKENZIE
WHETHER Winston Churchill's idea of a
"United States of Europe, both of the east
and of the west" materializes as a goodwill
measure of peaceful collaboration, the indica
tions are that the Old World will in any event
be divided into two blocs friendly or other
wise. One bloc already has been formed In the
main, and that is the new Russian zone of in
fluence which blankets most of the countries
of Eastern Europe and the Balkans. The log
ical corollary to that will be a western bloc of
nations which will combine because of their
special community of interests, including a
democratic form of government that is at vari
ance with the Soviet totalitarianism.
Cooperation
APROPOS of this thought, Mr. Churchill said
in his speech at the Hague:
"We heme that the western democracies of
Europe will draw together in ever closer amity
and ever closer association. This is a matter
which should be very carefully considered and,
if found wise, should be pressed from many
angles with the utmost perseverance."
Naturally the fact that there were two groups
of nations wouldn't ipso facto mean that they
must be at logger-heads. Mr. Churchill's
"United States of Europe, both of the east and
of the west," under the guidance of a world
organization, would be calculated "to unify this
continent in a manner never known since the
fall of the Roman Empire."
That would be the ideal. The cold reality
is that nobody can say now what the relations
among the Old World nations will be in the
Europe of tomorrow. We cannot determine
that until the realignment of the zones of in
fluence has been finished or at least until it is
clear how great a change is contemplated.

BOYLE'S
NOTEBOOK
Br HAL BOYLE
BERLIN. May 11 (1 Swit
zerland has all but killed tne
black market in watches in Ger
many. The days when Ameri
can soldiers could sell the
"Mickey Mouse" timepieces for
SI 000 are over, loo many have
flooded in across the Swiss
borders.
The chief customers were al
ways the Russians, and it used to
De a stock jest among GI's here
to say: "Let's call up the Soviet
embassy and see what time it is."
But the best joke concerns the
Yank who sold a sun dial to a
Russian. They met one morn
ing in downtown Berlin, and
Ivan immediately asked Joe:
"Wanta sell vour watch?"
"I don't have a watch," Joe
answered.
Ivan proudly unfurled his
sleeve.
Four-Watch Man
"Look," he said. "I got four."
There they were, too, ticking
from his wrist almost to his el
bow. Joe took a quick glance
at the nearest watch and saw
that it was 11 o'clock.
He held up a stick he had
been swinging and then: "Ivan,
I can tell time by this stick
and I don't have to wind it."
"Watch me." said Joe.
He stuck his stick in the
ground and saw where the shad
ow would fall.
Then he drew a circle and
numbered it around from one to
12, being careful to put the fig
ure 11 where he knew the shad
ow would fall.
He squinted up at the bright
sun and then placed the point
of the stick in the center of the
circle.
Portable Sun Dial
Ivan watched in wonderment
as Joe traced the shadow across
with his hand and announced:
"My sun stick says it is 11
o'clock. What time you got?"
Ivan inspected his four
watches critically, and answered
in an impressed voice:
"Eleven o'clock. Say, that's a
good watch. I'll give you a
thousand marks for it.
Joe handed him the stick and
walked away a hundred bucks
richer, hoping the sun would go
unsuspecting parents of war
heroes. A lawyer, finding that
a charwoman In his building has
fallen prey to these operators,
takes her to the head of the gang
in an attempt to expose the
crooks. But, I wouldn't be sur
prised if he were the guilty one
in the end. Anyway, the coun
terspies break up the ring and
everyone is happy again.

IRA Leader
Dead After
23-Day Fast
DUBLIN. May 11 W') John
McCuughoy, 3J, tight-lipped
former Irish republican urmy
"adjutant general" died in Ills
cell at Dublin's Muryboro prison
early today after a 211-day
hunger strike which caused
political ugltiitioii throughout
Eire.
In Belfast, David Fleming, an
other Imprisoned IRA hunger
striker, was reported in a "weak
condition ' as his fust entered Its
50th d: but Dr. Fred McSor
ley, a nationalist member of
parliament, who visited Flem
ing yesterday, said he showed
surprising vitality and prob
ably would live "for many,
many duys yet."
McCaughey, whose brother
and four sisters were with him
when he died, apparently kept
silent to the end. He had re
fused to defend himself when a
special Dublin military court
seuleiired him to death in 11141
for kidnaping and Illegally as
saulting another II1A leader,
Stephen Hayes.
The death sentence was com
muted to life imprisonment fol
lowing a nationwide appeal for
clemency.
Ills case had become a nation
al issue and in the past three
weeks, numerous Dublin mass
meetings demanded his release.
Thursday night mounted police
broko up what they termed an
"attempted attack on Eire
President Sean T. O'Kelley by
380 angry demonstrators.

GAMBLING QUESTION
KLAMATH KAl.LS, Ore., (To
The Editor) We wish you
would publish this as an i'n
letter to all the citizen of Klam
ath county.
Some few days ago my hus
band and 1 visited tho district at
torney in ills ii (I ico with re
spect to !liu enforcing of the luw
against tho slot machine oper
ators In this city and county,
which violations tliu district at
torney acknowledged. Wu know
others have been to thu district
attorney concerning these vio
lations too, iiiul yet the machines
are still there, lie ald however
that ho was helpless under the
circumstances, and not knowing
the exact wording of (he law,
we left hint. Not being willing
to accept tho stutemeul which
he mude, we have obtained the
Oregon code law since, and wo
ask llmt it might be printed in
the Herald and News for all
to read and to Judge whether the
district attorney could do any
thing about It.
"Oregon code luw 3,2:1-1(121);
officers duty to enforce law:
non performance: punishment:
forfeiture of office: court having
Jurisdiction.
"It shall be the duty of the
district attorneys in this stale
to enforce and to diligently
prosecute any and u 1 1 persons
violating any of the provisions
of this act in their respective
counties, if any district attorney
or any other prosecuting of
ficer shall fail, neglect or re
fuse faithfully to perform any
duty tmxiscd upon him by this
act, ho shall be deemed guilty
of a misdemeanor, and on con
viction fhcrof shall bo fined not
more than $.10(1, nor less than
$11)0, and on such conviction
shall be a forfeilure of his office;
and the court before whom such
conviction Is hud, shall at once
order such forfeiture of such
officer, in addition to Imposing
tho penalty herein set forth."
It would seem from a plain
reading of the law In this mat
ter of the slot machines, (hat
both the district attorney and
the sheriff are openly neglect
ful of their duly as servunts of
the people. If either the sheriff
or district attorney do not know
of these violations, all they need
to do Is walk down Klamath
avenue and some other streets of
our city and look In the pool
halls, beer parlors and look in
restaurants and bus stops in var
ious parts of the county.
If unwilling to do their sworn
duly why do they not say so,
rather than hide behind a lame
excuse, which is all that lias
been offered.
Is it possible that the district
attorney, now running for the
circuit Judgeship, Is afraid to en
force the law? Of whom would
he be afraid, surely not the law
abiding, law-respecting citizens.
In so carrying out thu plain in
tent of the law he and the
sheriff with him, would have (ho
respect and admiration of every
decent citizen.
A challenge to you Mr Sher
iff, and to you Mr. District At
torney, to do your sworn duty
today and every day.
Respectfully yours,
Mrs. V. T. King,
