Legislature Is Closely Guided By Carlson
Topeca, April 4-(U.P)—The 1949 Kansas legislature appeared likely today to be remembered as "The Carlson Session."
Gov. Frank Carlson steered the lawmaking efforts of house and senate skillfully and firmly.
The chief executive last January outlined a vast "progress program" of expanded state services. Then the Republican-dominated body, under guidance of the G.O.P. governor, proceeded to write it into law.
The only things Gov. Carlson desired but didn't get were the subscriptions, the people and a retirement program for state, county and city employees
A personal dry. Gov. Carlson reacted to Kansas' wet vote ending constitutional prohibition the past November. He decided if Kansas were going to write a liquor law during his administration, it should be one he thought good for the state.
Two years ago during his first term, there were criticisms that the soft-spoken Swedish descendant could hold a firm enough bond on the legislature.
There was a cry in several quarters this session that he holds the solons in too tight a grip.
The statute on the books today contains features the governor favored - sale by package only, through municipal office, and only within municipal limits.
He won his fight to send all the gallonage tax from liquor to the state's general fund.
So it was with other important laws passed during the near-three months session which wound up work Saturday night.

Advertiser Defend Advertising's Past
Interpreting advertising to those of the public who think that it is all bad is one of our most important duties, Donald Davis, national president of Alpha Delta Sigma, told University members of the national professional advertising fraternity Thursday.
Mr. Davis said that isolated examples of advertising in bad taste by radio and press had caused confusion on the business as a whole.
"Official figures from the recent federal trade commission investigation of advertising show that less than one per cent of the 100,000 advertisements investigated were considered actionable," Mr. Davis declared. "I believe that few other businesses could show so clean a slate."
"Advertising is essential not only to the American way of life, but to freedom of the press as well. It is the very reason for the publisher independence, and definitely not the contrary."
Advertising takes in a great deal more than just selling soap or breakfast food. It has done such things, as promote war bond sales and recruit nurses during the war. In peace time, advertising emphasizes forest fire prevention, higher teacher's pay, and safety, he said.
