N'etv Year bells ring.
District Attorney-elect Edward Swann
announced last night at the 143d dinner
of the .Sphinx Clob a?, the Waldorf that
b< " iuld open a special department la
the District Attorney's office whose sole
du'y would be to put false advertisers
cut of business. The snnouncenient wsi
cheered by 150 members of the club,
representing all ktadl of commercial
a.l-ertising.
"I shall open a eommercisl fraud de?
partment In the District Attorney's of?
fice," seid Judge Swann, "and I shall
assign to it the cases that you assign
to me, for even with the department I
would be almost powerless without your
r?rf;ve assistance. 1 have in mind an
expert la commercial fraud? whom I
shall assign to the job. He does not
know yet thst I am thinking of him,
but he knows a fske advertisement
when he sees it, and I shall strap the
u?k upon hii ehoeldera.
"The long-suffering public must be
taken care of. It makes no difference
if the public does not take the time
to investigate advertisements before
invf?tlng. Many have not the time or
the facilities for complete investiga
tien. They none the less have the
right to protection from fraud.
"We must approach this, however.
as we do any other kind of crime. The
es?ential thing is the facts, and those
nust furnish to me. I will co?
operate with you to the he?t of my
ability, and will consni??r >our aid a

District Attorney ( ropsey, el Kings
County, took a rap at what lie charac
terized the newspapers' advertisement
of crime. The newspapers were, he
said, the greatest single agency for ad?
rertisiag of eriaie among boys. He
ssid:
"Advertisement, by which 1 mesn the
pu hi ?cation nt' crime in the newspapers,
does not tend to minimize crime, bur
spreads It. The newspapers ??re filled
with accounts of crime? of every v;iri
