Reward for Arrest Of Fake Advertisers Mr. \V. A. Hirsch, president of the United Woolen Mills Company, lias taken up the cudgel against fraudulent advertisers and fraudulent advertls- j Ins. It has lieon Ills hobby for soni'! time, and lie has before agitated the subject, but he is now prepared to1 take definite steps to carry out hi,-, ideas. There is a law in Ohio, ill which slates Mr. Ilirsch operates ex tensively, and ho lias offered to the Advertisers' Club of Cincinnati the sum of ?50 for each arrest?up to n i total of six?made of merchant tailor advertisers for specious advertising, lie docs not make conviction a con dition. He will contribute so soon :is the formal charge is uttered. The legal phase of the action taken i is only Incidental so far as Parkers , burg and West Virginia are concor- j ned. The moral is a strong one. Itcr.i i we have an extensivo user of adver Using space, not only insistent that1 his own advertising shall be compati ble with his merchandise but willing to contribute to n propaganda to make the high standard ho sets for himself' applicable to all. While there liave been a few evl-, dences of the need in Parkersburg, the need nevertheless obtains, for pro- j tecting the consumer against falso 1 and fraudulent advertising matter. J Honest values have been the rule' here and so far as Parkersburg is con- ? cerned no concern that employed nil- j vertislng for purposos of deceit could; long withstand. Tills is the general > rule. But there may be exceptions j and there, so long as there is no law to the contrary, always the po tential danger of exceptions. A law ] that would compel tho truth in adver tising would not only prove a protec- j tion to those merchants who dedicate 1 their advertising to tho truth but It S would be a lasting bon to the public.

WARNINS HAVE HAD NO EFFECT ON TREACHEROUS MEN SOUTH OF RIO GRANDE. ily Associated Press. WASHINGTON, D.. C., Dec. 17.? i Further demonstration was made by It lie United States Government today of its determination not to tolerate continued llrlng by the Mexican fac tions at Naco, Sonora. Into American ' territory. Prosident Wilson instruct | cm Secretary Garrison to comply with Mlie request of Brig. Gen Tasker H. rttiiss at .Yeco, Ariz. fo,r reinforce ; ments to iiandle a possible emergency i'ituation. Three regiments of Ihfan try and three batteries of artillery were .-ordered to Naco, bringing the , total force'of, the American "army at Nhco to about 5,000 men, including 11 troops of cavalry, three regiments j of infantry and six batteries of art!! !

Hence his willingness to help the Cincinnati club in geting re sults. His letter follows: Parkersburg, W. Va. t Dec. 4, 1914. Mr. Melville Snowden, Recording Secretary, The Advertisers' Club, Cincinnati, Ohio. Doar Sir:? Replying to your favor of the 28tli ultimo, would say I will give $50 for the arrest of any concern in the mer. chant tailoring line in the city of Cin cinnati, doing business as the result of fraudulent advertising up to six cases. In other words; I want to limit the expenditure of $300, and want to pa> it out for every arrest for fraudulent advertising directly in my line of busi ness. The reason I am doing this Is that there certainly enough fakers in my line in your city who need the attention of the Advertisers' Club, without going into other lines. How ever, 1 am willing to contribute say $50 towards a general fund if neces sary, but would prefer the other. Regarding membership? Just as soon as you get to arestlng dishonest advertisers, and show me that you are doing something, I will certainly send you a membership fee, as promised, ours very truly, W. A.

Alius take th' same care o'j your welcome as you would a pair o'j white kid gloves. 500 troops, both factions have what Secretary Garrison described today as "a fair amount" of artillery. The fol lowing statement was issued by Mr. Garrison: "Thus far the warnings to Carranza j and Gutierrez have resulted in mstruc-; lions to Hill and Maytorena respect- j ively to regulate their lire so that j bullets would not fall into American : territory, but these instructions have; been disregarded. ?'Bullets have continued to fall i across the Hue during the past few days. The United States lias already ; outlined that it intends to take 'de feu si ve' and not 'aggressive* action, J and as soon as it has an adequate force ?** position, officials believe one J or the other of the Mexican factions | will withdraw. j After a conference between Briga dier General Scott, chief of staff, and S.eceretary Garrison, the Eleventh, Eighteenth and Twenty-second Infan try regiments, each to carry rations and supplies for 10 days and.not less than three machine guns, were order ed from Texas City and Batteries A.
