Orders Markers On Packages WASHINGTON UPI — The Federal Trade Commission Wednesday ordered cigarette makers to place warnings on their packages and in their advertising that smoking is dangerous and could cause cancer and other deadly diseases. The FTC regulation on pack- j age labelling was scheduled to go into effect next Jan. 1. The advertising order would apply
July 1, 1965.
Both are expected to be challenged in the courts, however. The action stemmed from the government report by a blue ribbon medical advisory committee earlier this year which held that there was a link between cigarette smoking and such killer diseases as cancer and heart ailments. The FTC order did not spell out any specific language which '
must be used. But it said thai it would be unfair or deceptive practice if advertising and packages did not clearly warn that “cigarette smoking is dangerous to health and may cause death from cancer and other diseases.” FTC Chairman Paul Rand Dixon said that advertising and labelling need not necessarily use the words “dangerous,” 'death” or “cancer.” “The advertising industry can say many things in many ways,” Dixon observed. The FTC decision drew Immediate fire from Southern congressmen representing tobacco growing states. Rep. L. H. Fountain, D-N.C., called the regulation “capricious, arbitrary, unreasonable and unsupported by facts.” Dixon announced the decision at a House Commerce Committee hearing on the effects of smoking on health. He told the House group: "The public interest requires the promulga-
4-
tion of a trade-regulation rule for the prevention of unfair or deceptive advertising or labeling of cigarettes in relation to the health hazard of smoking.” He explained why the commission stopped short of pinpointing the exact language required. He said his group felt that the individual advertiser should be free to formulate its own disclosure “in any manner that intelligibly conveys the sense of the required disclosure in a conspicuous fashion.”

CENTEHHIAL SCRAPBOOK The War for the Union 1861-65 in Picture*
l&>
■kj AOA battle of Kenesaw MounINO* tain was fought in Georgia by divisions of W. T. Sherman’s army advancing against Joe Johnston’s stubborn defenders of the way to Atlanta. Johnston had to give up Marietta and move back. He was replaced in command by J. B. Hood. Maj. Gen. Leonidas Polk was lost to the Rebels a few days earlier. The Protestant Episcopal bishop of Louisiana, who became a soldier in 1861, was killed in action at Pine Mountain. President Jefferson Davis, the classmate of Polk at West Point, said the Confederacy had sustained no heavier blow since Stonewall Jackson fell. Congress passed a new revenue act, in which it laid higher taxes on tobacco and incomes. (Six per cent on incomes *500 to *10,000, and 10 per cent on incomes over that) Gold was at *250 an ounce, which made paper money in circulation less than 40 cents on the dollar and forced the government to 15 per cent interest on loans represented by government bonds. The Federal debt was above the billion-dollar mark for the first time in history. Engagements of Rebel ships and shore batteries with Union ships in the James River were almost
daily occurrences. In spite of these and other momentous events at the end of June and beginning of July 1864, interest was stirred by the “Aes-thetico-neuralgicon” [the Rube Golbergian invention pictured below]. It w-as introduced by homeopathic practitioners to introduce medicated fluids into all tissues of the body through the nose and cure anything. Pressure tank at right was pumped up by hand. —Clark Kitwaird
