GOUGH * EDWARD BEGLEY NICOLOR!? ) s TRADE COMMISSION HITS CIGARETTE ADS IN"DESIST" ORDER WASHINGTON, April 5—#—The ,government today ordered a crack- down on what is called “false and misleading advertising” by some major cigarette makers, The Federal Trade Commission directed two of the largest com- panies to halt certain claims that one brand of cigarettes is superior to another. The so-calied “cease and desist” orders were against R. J. Reynolds Tobacco Co., makers of Camel cig- grettes, and the P. Lorillard Co, producers of Old Gold. FTC said it also 1s considering similar action against the Ameri- can Tobacco Co. and its Lucky Strike cigarettes as well as Philip Morris, Ltd., makers of the cigar- ettes of the same name. “All cigarettes contain varying amounts of nicotine and throat ir- ritants,” the commission said in an- nouncing its action, “and there is no reliable basis in fact for adver- tising claims that one brand is superior to another in these re- spects.” FTC's action .against the cigar- ette makers was the outgrowth of proceedings started in August, 1942, Its order that Camels and Old Golds halt what FTC found to he «false and misleading advertising" represents a final decision on the part of the commission. The com- panies may appeal to the courts, however. . Aside from the contemplated ac- tion against Lucky Strike and Philip Morris cigarettes, the commission sald in its 4,000-word statement Arrived Yesterday by Pan American Smart New Hats - For Easter :that it is studying the advertising practices of Pall Mall cigarettes, made by American Cigarette and | Cigar Co. of Durham, N.C. |DUMP CARETAKER LANG LOSES HOME IN WIND Emil Lang, caretaker at the City Dump, knows all about the Big Blow. Last night, as usual, he went to bed in his little house at the dump. His six dogs and seven cats were| in the house, too. The wind howled around the eaves. Lang went to sleep to the sound of the winds howling, but he was awakened early this morning by a strange bumping. He sat up. His house was moving! As the wind carried it, he opened the door and leaped out. His dogs and cats leaped, too. City police* decided $o drive out at 4:30 am. to see how Lang’s house was standing up to the wind.} As they approached the dump they saw what might have been a ghost running down the road toward them. | ‘They stopped the car. The “ghost” approached. “Save me! Save me!” it shouted. “Don’t let the wind blow me away!” It was Lang, clad in his long underwear and with a blanket around his shoulders whipping in ;™ the wind. ‘The police officers took him to the city jail, where he spent the rest of the night. His house was nc where to be seen, they said. Neither were his cats and dogs. AUXILIARY, POST OF VEW TO HOLD JOINT INSTALLATION THURS.

Sensitiven subtlety and integ- rity abound in this little story of u near middle aged wife who falls in ove with an otherwise happily mar- ried doctor and he with her. The film's story is taken from one ol Noel Coward’s plays. Mr. Coward’s .vo‘rk is commonly characterized by 1 brittle skill and high but cynical competence It's a simple tale. Laura Jessou is the happily married suburbar wife. On one of her weekly excur- sions to the nearby market town she encounters the doctor. They mee again the next week and the next Stealthily, d creeps up on theuw as high pas: Laura finds herseli ive, shamemaking, de- ception cof her husband. She is no suited to such things.

There’s not a.woman ir this or any other land of 25 or over who won't see in it some well-re- membered long-hidden . episode in her own life, or who wishes that some such tremulous disturbing joy might have been likewise hers. Adroitness abounds in the re- counting of the tale. It's finest mo- ments are saved to the end when, to all intent, the tale is told.
