OURUfO / JUNE, JULY AVOUtf AN INDEPENDENT FAMILY NEWSPAPER. DEVOTED TO LITERATURE. LOCAL AND GENERAL INTELLIGENCE. VOL. XXXIX NAZARETH, PA., THURSDAY MORNING, AUGUST 7, 1930 No. 88 FRAUDS The Federal Government has be¬ gun an active campaim against false, fraudulent and misleading advertising. The Federal Trade Commis,4ion has aiinonnced a policy of holding news* papers and magasines responsibia equally with the advertisers. One result hu been the cleaning up uf the advertising columns of the less responsible publications in th« jiasl few months. Another result has hrrn to .send advertising frauds, espe¬ cially medical quacks, into radio br adcasling. Sooner ur later broadcasting will have t«i he regulated, toa CIGARETTES The prejudice against cigarettes ureim to lla^c practically disappeared. The report ¦!! the Bureau of Internal Krvcauc for the year which ended on jimr 30th la«t, shows the largest con¬ sumption of ciRarettes in history, nearly one huiKlred and twenty bil' lion of them having been sold dur- itift the year. That is an average ol 1.000 cigarettes a year for every man, w»nMn anil chlM in the United States I The idea that cigarette smoking is more injurioll^ to health than the use if tobacco in other forms is still heM in smne quarters, but medical men generally do not uke it very serioua- Cigarette smoking by women ts now commonplace, though until the war there was only one restaurant in New York that permitted women to smoka within its walls. POLITICS After all tlie sound and furr ow the ratification of the Naval Reduc¬ tion treaty, just nine Senators votad against it By the noise they made^ and tha amount of space which the news¬ papers gave to tlie opponents of tha treaty, most people were expecting, if not defeat of the treaty, at least a very close vote. In Washington everybody knew better. There nevar wu any real doubt that the treaty would be ratified. All tha uproar was merely personal and partisan poli¬ tics. The trouble with two-trirdi of tha jo^alM "news" that comes oat of WasUngton is tl»t it is mislmdlnf. It ghras the impression that little BMa are big men, that Iheir words art inr tended to be taken seriously. HOMES Home building is on tht increase according to the Homt Owntrs la- ititute of America. Regions where thcte has been no shortage of hout- jiig facilities are now ticginning III feel a demand for new homes. This IS a particularly favorablt time in which to build a house, tht Institute states. Building maWiritU are lower than at any thnt siaot IW, and Imaneing staipaniea, saviafi banks and other aKiney-lending intu* tutioat are making more liberal loana for homt building, and on easier terms. Practically every new liome is but! with borrowed money. M< jieople hold that it is better to liavi. a "per¬ manent" mortgage on one's home thar to owa it free and clear. In must communities it is easier to sell prop erty with a mortgage on it than other wise, and there is less of the home owner's individual capital tied up in a house which cannut be turned into cash in an emergrncy. CREDIT A few years ago the principal grocer in the suburban town where I was living began to raise hik prices. Alter a few months my family found it so much cheaper to go across the railroad to the "cash and carry" store that thrjr transferred all their trade there. Our old grocer sto|iped me on the street one day and asked whether he had failed to give satisfaction. I told him I was satisfied with every¬ thing but his prices. ^ He explained that so many rich people had movcil into the suburb that he had to charge more, because, as he explained^ the rich took so lung to pay tlieir billsl My next door neighbor, reputed a millionaire, had not settled hit grocery bill for three years. Instead of refusing to tell him, tlie grocer was so afraid of losing the "millionaire trade" that he tried to make nie, and others like me, who boiiRht for cash, pay interest on ths debts of the wialtliy, I wa» romin lid of this by seeing a report of the Department of Com' inerce on rrta 1 store failures, in which It il stated that the principal cause IS the cxfension of credit. It terms incn-dible that there are ptaft\« who do ni»t pay for the food they eat, but apparently there art a e.ood many of them.

Budenz, organizer for the American Federation of Full Fash¬ ioned Hosiery Workers, last Friday carried out his threat to violate the ' Injunction handed down by Presi- I dent Judge Stewart prohibiting him ' from interfering with workers at the Kraemer hosiery mill here. But contrary to expectations the North- ! ampton county authorities did noth¬ ing to stop htm. Carrying three banners with which he called on workers to Join the union, he began his parade be¬ fore the mill gates as the workers came out into the yard for their lunch hour. While the workers I gathered at the mill gates and other interested persons assembled ot; the I opposite side of the street, Budenz continued his vigil. For an hour the labor organizer picketed In front of the mill, repeat¬ ing his actions of July 14, On that occasion county authorities took him into custody (or questioning but re- : leased him without inflicting pun- I ishment for violation of the injunc¬ tion, I While Budenz was parading County Detective Charles Deichman operating an amateur motion pic¬ ture camera, recorded his actions on celluloid.

Vacation for *Lever Pullers' of the Iron Thieves' Here "The lever pullers of the iron thieves" were pleasantly surprised Saturday evening when they found that all the slot machines had made an Impromptu disappearance. It is rumored that seventeen of these machines had anchored In diflerent ports about the town and that county authorities had received numerous complaints from local residents; therefore, making it nec¬ essary for some prompt action. Nazareth has been fortunate in¬ sofar as slot machine operations are concerned. Very few and pos¬ sibly none were operating in the town up to a few months ago since the last raid. However, the craze is known to be "contagious" through¬ out this and neighboring counties and Nazareth was not entirely im- NAZARENE FIGURES IN FATAL AUTO CRASH Adolph Ooelz, 22, of Union City. N. J., was fatally Injured on Satur¬ day night while driving a motor¬ cycle on the Bloomsbury pike, near Phillipsburg, when he collided wtth the automobile driven by Otto Kolbe. of town. Ooelz sustained three fractures ot his right leg. injuries about the head, face and body, and was rush¬ ed to the Warren ho.spital, where he died shortly before 10 o'clock Sunday morning. Kolbe was held in $1,000 bail by the New Jersey state police, bail being provided for him by Morris Fortuin, of town. mune. While these machines are harmless, if let alone, yet when the germ is once contracted the victim becomes an addict and spends hours figuring combinations to tio avail. The removal of the machines at this time relieves Council of taking any action in the matter. Even though a loss is tnourned by victims it is hoped and believed that they, will not make their appearance for some long time to come. | Another blow was struck at gambling this same evening by County Detective Leonard Schweit¬ zer when he visited an alleged gam¬ bling place here and gave the pro¬ prietor notice to cut out the ofT-col- or activities and stick to his legiti-j tnate lines. No arrests were made in either one of these "clean-ups' but the Warning to all concerned ended with "and we don't mean maybe," meaning that if the prac-1 tice is continued arrests are sure to follow.

FRAUDS
The Federal Government has be¬ gun an active campaim against false, fraudulent and misleading advertising. The Federal Trade Commis,4ion has aiinonnced a policy of holding news* papers and magasines responsibia equally with the advertisers.
One result hu been the cleaning up uf the advertising columns of the less responsible publications in th« jiasl few months. Another result has hrrn to .send advertising frauds, espe¬ cially medical quacks, into radio br adcasling.
Sooner ur later broadcasting will have t«i he regulated, toa
CIGARETTES
The prejudice against cigarettes ureim to lla^c practically disappeared. The report ¦!! the Bureau of Internal Krvcauc for the year which ended on jimr 30th la«t, shows the largest con¬ sumption of ciRarettes in history, nearly one huiKlred and twenty bil' lion of them having been sold dur- itift the year. That is an average ol 1.000 cigarettes a year for every man, w»nMn anil chlM in the United States I
The idea that cigarette smoking is more injurioll^ to health than the use if tobacco in other forms is still heM in smne quarters, but medical men generally do not uke it very serioua-
Cigarette smoking by women ts now commonplace, though until the war there was only one restaurant in New York that permitted women to smoka within its walls.
POLITICS
After all tlie sound and furr ow the ratification of the Naval Reduc¬ tion treaty, just nine Senators votad against it
By the noise they made^ and tha amount of space which the news¬ papers gave to tlie opponents of tha treaty, most people were expecting, if not defeat of the treaty, at least a very close vote. In Washington everybody knew better. There nevar wu any real doubt that the treaty would be ratified. All tha uproar was merely personal and partisan poli¬ tics.
The trouble with two-trirdi of tha jo^alM "news" that comes oat of WasUngton is tl»t it is mislmdlnf. It ghras the impression that little BMa are big men, that Iheir words art inr tended to be taken seriously.
HOMES
Home building is on tht increase according to the Homt Owntrs la- ititute of America. Regions where thcte has been no shortage of hout- jiig facilities are now ticginning III feel a demand for new homes.
This IS a particularly favorablt time in which to build a house, tht Institute states. Building maWiritU are lower than at any thnt siaot IW, and Imaneing staipaniea, saviafi banks and other aKiney-lending intu* tutioat are making more liberal loana for homt building, and on easier terms.
Practically every new liome is but! with borrowed money. M< jieople hold that it is better to liavi. a "per¬ manent" mortgage on one's home thar to owa it free and clear. In must communities it is easier to sell prop erty with a mortgage on it than other wise, and there is less of the home owner's individual capital tied up in a house which cannut be turned into cash in an emergrncy.
CREDIT
A few years ago the principal grocer in the suburban town where I was living began to raise hik prices. Alter a few months my family found it so much cheaper to go across the railroad to the "cash and carry" store that thrjr transferred all their trade there. Our old grocer sto|iped me on the street one day and asked whether he had failed to give satisfaction. I told him I was satisfied with every¬ thing but his prices. ^ He explained that so many rich people had movcil into the suburb that he had to charge more, because, as he explained^ the rich took so lung to pay tlieir billsl My next door neighbor, reputed a millionaire, had not settled hit grocery bill for three years. Instead of refusing to tell him, tlie grocer was so afraid of losing the "millionaire trade" that he tried to make nie, and others like me, who boiiRht for cash, pay interest on ths debts of the wialtliy,
I wa» romin lid of this by seeing a report of the Department of Com' inerce on rrta 1 store failures, in which It il stated that the principal cause IS the cxfension of credit. It terms incn-dible that there are ptaft\« who do ni»t pay for the food they eat, but apparently there art a e.ood many of them.
