Old Cardboard, Skill
And String Win $50
Wrapping Prize
Lansburgh & Bro.
Employe Stars at
Paper Economy Contest
Robert Fleming of Lansburgh &
Bro. Department Store turned an
old piece of cardboard, a piece of
string, a frying pan and assorted
odds and ends into $50 worth of
Defense bonds last night.
’ Mr. Fleming was the winner of
the grand prizes in the bundle
wrapping contest, sponsored by The
Star, in co-operation with the
Merchants & Manufacturers’ Asso
ciation, and held In the Chamber
of Commerce Auditorium.
The contest winner had the idea
exactly. He wrapped the most the
best with the least.
•" The purpose of the bundle-wrap
ping contest was to demonstrate to
the operators of local stores the
extent to which precious paper and
cardboard can be conserved by care
ful use of materials.
Three Problems Presented.
There were three problems pre
sented to the best talent from the
wrapping departments of the stores.
One of these was to tie up an as
sortment of goods, such as a cus
tomer might pick up at a single
counter.
The second was to gather to
gether for a customer a number of
things which might have been pur
chased in different parts of the
store. The third was to wrap up
some heavy equipment which was
to be delivered by store truck.
It was in the latter division that
Mr. Fleming made his appearanoe.
He was handed a 12-lnch frying
pan, two sharp paring knives, a
hank of clothes line and some
clothes pint.
The wrapping champ put all the
looee articles Inside the frying pan,
then took an old piece of discarded
cardboard, which he had picked up
around the store, and placed it over
the top.
Adds Only String and SMIL
The cardboard was square, and Mr.
Fleming folded down the edges.
Then he wrapped a piece of string
ground it. That and nothing more.
He had a package which was secure,
peat and which had required not ao
much as a scrap of new paper ma
terial.
In the other divisions the winners
were William H. Hudson of Peoples
Drug Stores and Miss Elisabeth
Maver of the Hecht Co.
Mr. Hudson did up a neat bundle
Of a hairbrush, liquid tooth paste and
tissue, in a fashion designed to use
almost no paper. It was very com
pact and pleasing.
Miss Mayer tied up a man’s shirt,
a slip, a couple of neckties and a
pair of women’s bedroom slippers.
Her point of superiority over the
others lay in her ability to make p
very tight bundle—without crushing
the shirt.
Mr. Fleming, Mr. Hudson and Miss
Mayer all received $25 Defense
bonds, contributed by The Star. Mr.
Fleming, as the grand prtte winner,
got another $25 bond, put up by Mur
ray & Heister, dealers in paper boxes.
Others Win Prlxes.
The winners of the other prises
were:
Clerk-wrap—Ten dollars In De
fense stamps to Mrs. SSthel Via of S.
Kann Sons Co.; $5 Defense stamps
to Mrs. Edith Moore of the Hecht
Co.
Wrap and carry—Ten dollars in
Defense stamps to Estelle Scott of
Lansburgh & Bro.; $5 In Defense
stamps to Fanny Franklin of Frank
R. Jelleff, Inc.
Wrap for delivery—Ten dollars in
Defense stamps to Herman T. Phil
lips of S. Kann Sons Co.; $5 in De
fense stamps to Mrs. Nettle Lumpkin
of Woodward & Lothrop.
The judges of the contest were
Mrs. A. C. Watkins, president of
the Federation of Women’s Clubs
of the District of Columbia, and
Mrs. P. C. Ellett, president of the
District of Columbia Congress of
Parents and Teachers.
William Coyle, radio director of
The Star, acted as master of cere
monies. The program was opened
With the singing of "The Star
Spangled Banner” by Perry Martin,
radio singer.
New Method Shown.
Fleming Newbold, vice president
and business manager of The Star,
apoke. Garland Shortt, operating
manager of Lansburgh’s, gave a
demonstration of the new methods
of wrapping packages with prac
tically nothing, as compared with
old and wasteful methods.
Socrates Calevas, an employe of
Laneburgh's with a pleasing voice,
sang two songs and Lansburgh’s
employes put on a skit, showing how
the new wrapping and delivery
policies of the stores are affecting
the consumers.
Participating in the skit were
Bill Davies, Camille Payne and
Donald Jones. Arthur Gray was
the commentator.
Then came the catch-as-catch
ean wrapping contest, with employes
from leading business establish
ments competing in the three divi
sion*. While the Judges were out,
films were shown to the audience.

day half-holiday leave with pay,
periodic salary advancement, and
generous retirement provisions. The
burden of the war effort requires the
utmost effort on the part of every
Government employ* and every
other citizen.
“The committee believes that Fed
eral workers in the District will patri
otically and willingly work the extra
time if that will contribute to relieve
a situation that is rapidly getting
worse. If more workers are brought
into the District than can be ac
commodated by housing and office
accommodations the more likelihood
there is of present personnel being
removed to other cities to make
room for them.
“The committee recommends early
eonsideration of this phase of the
Federal employment situation by
administrative officials."

the record of the American Red

Mrs. Homer Case, chairman of

booths in theaters, stores and at

Glad to Get Pennies.
"We are glad of pennies, nickels
and dimes," she said. “I would like
people to remember that these are
not booths for membership enroll
ment but booths open to the smallest
donation. Those whose gift must be
so small that they hesitate to mail
it in may help by handing It over
to the Red Cross workers In the
booths, who are giving service day
after day to make It possible for
every man, woman and child to
contribute.”
Reporting on Red Cross work, Mrs.
Brown Harbold, surgical dressing
chairman, announced that her aides

nounced.
“I feel we must pay our way by
contribution* from private sources,"
Mr. Kruglak said. “Up to the pres
ent time we have had to beg. borrow
and steal. It is necessary to keep
the building heated where we are
on duty all night. In the past we
had to borrow stationer, typewrit
ers and paper. From now on this
office is on its own and is being
girded for the struggle ahead."
About 1,200 residents attended the
meeting. More than 700 air-faid
wardens already have been sworn in.

Pound Testifies Today
On Right of Press
To Enter Radio Field
f
Broadcasting of News
Hasn't Cut Circulation
Figures, F. C. C. Told
Roscoe Pound, dean emeritus of
the Harvard Law School, was to tes
tify today as the Newspaper-Radio
Committee continued its presenta
tion of testimony before the Fed
eral Communications Commission in
opposition to prohibitions against
licensing of radio stations by news
papers.
At yesterday’s session, the com
mission which is investigating radio
newspaper relationships was told
that radio broadcasting of news has
not resulted in decreased reading of
newspapers.
Dr. Herman 8. Hettinger, professor
in the Wharton School of Finance,
University of Pennsylvania, said
newspaper circulation had kept pace
with the increase In population, and
that this demonstrated that the pub
lic has confidence in the press.
Another witness, Ernest Angel],
New York lawyer and president of
the Council for Democracy, said he
felt prohibitions against operation
of broadcast stations by newspapers
would be "fraught with a great deal
of danger to the democratic pro
cess."
Broadcasts to Germany.
Mr. Angell told the commission
the council was organized after the
fall of Prance when “a wave of de
featism and an apparent loss of
faith In democracy" swept this coun
try. Its purpose, he explained, Is “to
help the American people rebuild
their faith In democracy." The
council's activities Include broad
casts to Germany “to explain what
the American war effort Is and why.”
Calling maintenance of freedom of
speech and freedom of the press
“Important to democracy,” Mr. An
gell expressed a fear that prohibi
tions against newspapers might
eventually lead to prohibitions
against radio station operation by
other classifications such as em
ployers, labor unions or church
groups.
Donald Harris, an P. c. C. attor
ney, asked Mr. Angell whether he
would oppose action by Congress to
establish some system of apportion
ing stations among various groups.
The witness described that as "com
pletely unworkable.”
Circulation Rises 24 Per Cent.
During the period 1920-1949, Mr.
Hettinger said, newspaper circula
tion In the United States increased
24.1 per cent, while the population
Increased 24.5 per cent.
He told the commission that
while newspapers and radio were
competitors, the principal compe
tition was for national advertising.
Newspapers, he said, receive a major
part of their advertising revenues
from local advertising, while radio s
major part comes from national ad
vertising.
In most cases, Mr. Hettinger testi
fied. he regarded it as a “matter of
small consequence ” to a newspaper’s
financial stability whether it op
erated a broadcast station at pres
ent. He added, however, that he
could not predict what result the
development of television and fac
simile might have.
