C. All articles submitted for publication must be signed by the author FRIDAY, AUGUST 29, 1947 " WE ARE FOR THIS BAN Several bills will be submitted at the next session of Congress calling for curbing the movement in inter state commerce of newspapers, periodicals and radio programs containing much of the current advertising for alcoholic beverages. Each would amend the fed eral trade .commission to classify as **misleadting*’ any ad linking liquor with “men of distinction”, the tra dition of the American family or physical upbuilding. The proposals were offered by Senator Clyde Reed, R., of Kansas and Senator Eld win C. Johnson, D., Colo., who had been appodnted to consider an anti liquor ad bill sponsored for more than a decade by Senator Arthur Capper of Kansas. One of the committee’s proposals offered as a substitute for the original clapper bill, outlaws any liquor ad including the likeness of a woman, child or caricature of a woman, child or family scene, of any person serving or preparing drinks or holding a bot tle, glass or container in a manner indicating the con sumption of liquor. It also prohibits any illustration primarily appealing to children, such as comic strip.** or children’s peth, depicting athletes or athletic events, referring to any religious holiday or festival, or making use of any symbol, sign or other character associated with such festivals. Capper hearings last spring had uncovered an extensive campaign by liquor interests, especially through periodicals using color in thedr advertising ptqiE’es to convey to youth the idea that the consump tion of liquor is “smart.” A TRAGIC ACCIDENT Tragedy has struck another in the circle of week ly newsp^ers in this section. Jake Brown, brother of^ DaCosta Brown, owner and publisher of the Camden Chronicle, and his eight-year-old son, are dead from injuries sustained in an autombile Sunday, August 17- Mr. Brown worked with his brother on The Chronicle, and was, at 29 years of age, only in the beginning of his adult life.
