Why Newspaper
Advertising?
One of the countless reasons
why the response to newspaper
advertising is so outstanding is
that women expect to see adver¬
tising in their hometown news¬
paper — The Cleveland Courier.
This special advantage of The
Courier, which we have pointed
out so often, is now buttressed
by a research project which has
concluded: “getting a woman to
see an advertisement is not enough
—A woman pays attention to ad¬
vertisements when they’re where
she expects to see them —(in The
Cleveland Courier—) otherwise she
is likely to ignore them.”

South Africa Boom
Due for Slowdown
JOHANNESBURG, June 10 (UPD
—The greatest economic boom in
South Africa’s history may have
outrun itself. The nation’s econo¬
mists are warning South Africans
to prepare for hard times ahead.
But there are warning signs that
the economy may not continue at
the same rate. The boom that has
transformed South Africa from an
economic invalid to the most pros¬
perous African country in the past
five year is creating some of the
trouble by its sheer momentum.
South Africa’s greatest asset is
her gold mines. Thus bad inflation
could put South Africa’s golden
goose out of business.

On Patman
And Economy
The Editors: In his statement
of June 10, Rep. Wright Patman
insinuated that W. M. Martin, Jr.,
Federal Reserve chairman, has yel¬
led fire in a crowded theater. If
any one man has the power to
rattle this nation’s economy by
voicing his convictions it’s about
time something down to earth be
done about it.
What Rep. Patman and many
others are trying to conceal is
that our economy is like an old
tottering pier that needs shoring
up where an occasional sag ap¬
pears. Trouble is, though, when it
starts sagging in several places
we must build a new pier and
the only timber we have is what we
can salvage from the falling one.

Tourists In Florida
TALLAHASSEE, June 19 (AP)—
A total of 14.4 million tourists
spent $2.5 billion dollars in Flori¬
da last year, an increase of $73.9
milion left behind by 14.2 million
visitors to the state in 1963.
Highways: Safe,
Clean, Attractive
Every American has a vital stake
in highway safety. This newspaper
has in the past called upon De¬
troit industrialists to equip their
new cars with specified safety and
antismog devices.
Now Washington may impel De¬
troit to do what it has thus far
resisted. The Senate Finance Com¬
mittee has adopted a proposal by
Sen. Abraham A. Ribicoff (D) of
Connecticut that would require
manufacturers to install safety and
exhaust control devices or pay a
4 per cent excise tax on new cars.
If pressure can be brought to guar¬
antee that such a tax would come
out of profits and not out of car
buyers’ pockets, the measure
should be effective.
Auto lobbyists are said to have
been strenuously opposed, and are
expected to try to torpedo the
Ribicoff amendment. Strong citi¬
zen backing for the Ribicoff pro¬
posal should do much to help Con¬
gress stand firmly behind it.
The Senate Finance Committee
acted a second time in the public
interest by adopting an amend
ment by Sen. Paul H. Douglas (D)
of Illinois which would retain a
1 per cent federal excise tax on
passenger cars. Revenue from this
tax would be used to clean up
automobile junk yards along the
nation’s highways. Again, the man
ufacturers were reportedly op
pqsed. iLL.

The Court's
// Penumbra ii
The Supreme Court has ende,
its term with a flurry of decisions
on behalf of individual rights. Jus¬
tices differed on constitutional
points, even sometimes within the
majorities. But the decisions clear¬
ly confirmed this court’s tendency
to interpret the Constitution in a
way to properly give the individ¬
ual the benefit of any doubt.
Thus the justices agreed that
the Constitution does not specific¬
ally deal with the right of privacy
in marriage. But the majority in¬
voked this right in ruling against
a 19th century Connecticut law pro¬
hibiting the use of birth control de¬
vices.
In the court’s opinion the First
Amendment has a M penumbra tt
where “privacy is protected from
governmental intrusion.” And it
found a new application of the Nin¬
th Amendment providing that “the
enumeration in the Constitution, of
certain rights, shall not be con¬
strued to deny or disparage others
retained by the people. »
This is one point where the two
dissenting justices, Mr. Black and
Mr. Stewart, parted company with
the majority, though they equally
deplored the Connecticut law. They
felt this interpretation of the Nin¬
th Amendment was ‘'to turn somer¬
saults with history.” They assert¬
ed the amendment was passed not
to broaden the powers of the court
but to limit the powers of the fed¬
eral government in relatiod to the
people and the states. By the mi¬
nority’s reasoning, the repeal of
the law should have been left to
the people’s elected representatives
in Connecticut.
Surely the court must not begirt
to use the Ninth Amendment a*
an excuse to cut down any state
law it considers misguided. The
people of the states must retain
their right to be wrong. But the
majority opinion seemed sensitive
to the limitations and responsibili¬
ties of the court in this regard. It
wisely drew distinction between
the general run of laws and those
dealing with the personal right of
privacy in marriage:
u We do not sit as a superlegis¬
lature to determine the wisdom,
need, and propriety of laws that
touch economic problems, business
affairs, or social conditions. This
(Connecticut) law, however, oper¬
ates directly on an intimate rela¬
tion of husband and wife and their
physician’s role in one aspect of
that relation.”
The complexity of interpreting
the Constitution in regard to to¬
day’s problems of individual rights
was suggested by the five-to-four
decisions in two other cases.
Should the individual be pun¬
ished for his political beliefs? The
court seemed to think not. It
struck down as a “bill of attain¬
der” a federal law making it a
crime for a Communist to be a
labor-union official.
Should the individual be protec¬
ted from the possible unfairness
resulting from television coverage
of criminal trials? Yes, again. The
court reversed Billie Sol Estes’s
state swindling conviction on the
grounds that it was televised de¬
spite his objection.
This is a case where a broad
interpretation of freedom of the
press might come in conflict with
a broad interpretation of the rights
of the individual. At this stage in
the development of television,
however, its impact on a criminal
trial seems more likely to hamper
justice than to foster it
So the Supreme Court goes off
for the summer, with its "penum¬
bra” glowing.
