" B POLICE ATTACKED BY LONDON PRESS ON MORALS DRIVE Sir Leo Chiozza Money Pays $1,000 to Clear His Character HYDE PARK CASE Knight and Young Lady Sat Down to Smoke a Cigarette London, May 7. -- Despite his ap- parently tame submission to the irri- tating and pointless rsetrictions upon his liberty as perpetuated 10 years after the war by revisions of "Dora" ~--the famous Defence of the Realm Act--John Bull hasn't yet entirely lost his taste for individual freedom. Every now and then some incident occurs which in a highly centralized country such as England immediate- ly interests the whole kingdom in a manner searcely possible in the larger countries, The latest such was concluded this week, and practically every impor- tant daily paper in England on Thursday editorialized thereon with] as much emphasis as though some major aspect of international foreign politics was at stake. Characters Cleared The actual case in point concerned the arrest on the night of April 23, on the charge of improper behavior in Hyde Park, of Sir Leo G. Chiozzi Money, a former member of Parlia- ment and a prominent economist, and his young woman companion, When the police court hearing came on both Sir Leo and his com- panion handsomely vindicated their characters and the correct nature of their relations. According to Sir Leo's story, after dining together in a London restau- rant, they strolled along to Hyde Park, where they sat down on chairs and started to smoke cigarettes, when they were accused by a plain clothes policeman and marched off to the police station, The actual prosecution was stopped by the mag- istrate when it developed that the police had made no immediate ef- fort to detain as a witness an un- known man who overtook the pro- cession to the police station with the object of returning an umbrella left on the park seat by Sir Leo, and who, presumably, therefore, was nearby when the arre§t was made. The magistrate awarded $50 com- pensation to Sir Leo, who, however, declares that the cost of his defense was nearer $1,000. Strong Editorials The British press, editorializing the case, declares with considerable unanimity that the whole attitude of the police as guardians of public morals needs to be overhauled, and such headlines as "The Scandal of Hyde Park" show clearly enough where the public sympathy lies, The Manchester Guardian, column-long editorial, remarks: "It is a strange comment on the life im a civilized city that it should need an ordeal of this kind in order to clear two characters against which there is no previous charge or suspicion of any kind. Likewise the ultra Tory Morning Post: "It should be a mockery in- deed if the adopted methods of polic- ing the parks were to make them wholly unsafe, not for the disrepu- table, but for every man and woman who has a reputation to lose." The Daily News: "If there was any doubt at all of the accused man's guilt it is really a monstrous procedure." The Daily Herald: "This case de- mands the earnest attention of all who are concerned for the repute of the British police." A Real Danger Practically all those papers also comment upon the fact that a poor, obscure man arrested as was Sir Leo Money might have the greatest dif- flculty in securing adequate legal help to prove his innocence, and that a miscarriage of justice might well ensue. Equally there is the some- what sobered realization on the part of the press, a fact which has been perfectly well known for years to anybody at all familiar with Lon- don's night life that, in the words of the Morning Post, "Anybody who ventures to take his ease in the Park is liable to be the victim of an accusation." ' Underlying all this comment there can be seen a very widespread feel- ing that it should not have to rest with the ordinary man to prove his innocence any time the overzealous police sce fit to accuse him; but that the burden should rest entirely on the police in any interference with such action as the average citizen sees fit to take. Although in a huge city such as London any decided eccentricity of behavior is apt to cause the. police to take an interest in one, this lat- est episode furnishes a clear indica- tion that Londoners do not intend to allow their police force--of which they are justly proud--to overstep the limits of the admittedly wide powers it enjoys. in a CARDS AND ROBINS ; DIVIDE THE SPOILS St. Louis, May 6.--The Cardin- als and the Brooklyn Robins di- vided a double-header here today. The Cardinals taking the (first game 4 to 2 and the Robins over- coming Tony Kaufman in the sec- ond for a five to four score. The veteran pitcher, Grover Cleveland Alexander and Wallie toettger, young Cardinal outfield- er, brought the Cardinals out im the lead in the first game. Roett- ger hit a home run off Dazzy Vance with a man on base. Chick Hafey showed his punch in the second game, hitting 2 home run with two men on bases to tie the count and driving in another tally later with a single to put the Cardinals in the lead, but the Robins drove in two more in the eighth. The games were played before 33,000 fans, i ri A Chicago, 'May 7.--The Sunday night murder of the seventeen-year- old theatre usherette, Pearl Eggle ston, has aroused Chicago public opinion. The eity council, in a resolution adding $500 to rewards posted by others, demanded that every means be exhausted by police to bring the girl's slayer to justice, "The entire city," said the resolution, "is stunned with horror at the wanton, cold- blooded murder of Miss Eggleston. This crime is a serious challenge to organized government." George E. Q. Johnson, United States District Attorney, declared that the Federal Government might be compelled to intervene unless pub- lic opinion itself ended crime and its union with politics. Circuit Judges appointed three of their number to investigate charges of the Chicago Crime Commission that criminals have made a mockery of justice here. Rewards totaling $2,100 have been Chicago Hotbed of Crime, Due Solely to Politics, Says District Attorney offered, inclu $500 by the city of Berwyn and $1, by the hE ment of the Ritz Theatre, where Miss Eggleston worked and where she was shot by one of three men Who Fold the ticket office Sunday night. The girl's funeral took on the at- tributes of a solemn civic rite. The Mayor of Berwyn and the Aldermen of that suburb attended in a body, with official representatives of Oak Park and Chicago. District Attorney Johnson's views were expressed in an add before the Chicago Congregational ocia- tion. "Crime," he says, "comes like the waters in the time of flood and seeks the low.level. Chicago has become a low level because of a system of privilege, the hotbed in which erime sprouts," "Politics, he said, have fostered crime in Chicago by granting this system of privilege, largely to pro- tect violators of the Eighteenth Amendment. > ADVERTISING KEY 10 MOTOR SALES Sloan Tells Publishers News- paper Space Cuts Cost By Stimulating Production Alfred P. Sloan jr, president of the General Motors Corporation, told 800 members of the, American Newspaper. Publishers Association at their annual dinner in New York last week that the automobile in- dustry, which supplied the purchas- ing power of 10 per cent. of the population and produced wealth equal to that of the annual farm crops, depended for its future pros- perity largely upon newspaper ud- vertising. Far from increasing the cost of automobiles, newspaper advertising, Mr. Sloan said, actually reduced cost, because it stimulated quan- tity produciion. "Advertising is a direct promoter of prosperity for the reason that it stimulates a desire on the part of the people to have things that they otherwise would not even know about," said Mr, Sloan. "I do not think that advertised products are higher in price because of large ad- vertising appropriations, On the contrary, the demand is stimulated, the volume of the manufacturer in- creases and he is' able to reduce costs through influence of volume and hence reduce prices for the pur- pose of still further increasing vol- ue." Describes Advertising Benefits Mr. Sloan, after comparing the automobile industry to the 'farm, said General Motors was the largest individual purchaser of advertising space. "This is perfectly matural," he said, "because it is impossible to see between 1,500,000 and 2,000,000 motor cars, fo say nothing of other products, the total representing a re- tail sales value of over $2,000,000,000 without the expenditure of colossal sums for advertising purposes, "Naturally, we find 'it desirable to place the merits of our products be- fore the public in every constructive way because each different method has a certain appeal. Without in any sense intending to discriminate between the effectiveness of one class of space as compared with an- other, nevertheless we have found during the last two or three years, as our business has grown and as the amount available for this pur- pose has increased, that the eolumns of your publications are particularly helpful from the standpoint of direct sales appeal and as our advertising appropriations come in from time to time from our different operations 1 notice a strong trend toward more oA Lasting Joy to the New Day Hostess SMART SILVER.

There is no GHUOMN Dy, CDNA Dont Fnvy Big Concerns Amitate Them : Svar BUSINESSES have much to learn from large businesses, because all large businesses were at one time small, About fifty per cent. of small business concerns are to-day not making money. Their volume is not big enough, The public does not know about them or their product. Why? Simply because they do not advertise in the Daily Newspapers. Plenty of money is being mage in business to-day--but it is being made by the big Corporations, And these firms are big because they advertise. They began in a small way, they turned out a good article and they knew. it was good; they created in the public mind, through newspaper advertising, a desire to buy. The public now knows all about them and has confidence in them. That is one of the first lessons on the road to Success which Small Business * has to learn.
