Dated October 19, 1955. BOARD OF EDUCATION OF ALPINE SCHOOL DISTRICT 50 NORTH CENTER STREET AMERICAN. FORK, UTAH Pub. Oct 27, Nov. 3, 10 SALT LAKE CITY A smoothly smooth-ly operating band of door-to-door salesmen who sell cheap substitute substi-tute fabrics as "all-wool" are cheating the nation's housewives out of hundreds of thousands of dollars each year, the American Wool Council has warned here. The swiftly spreading racket, which foils local authorities in most communities? has reached as far West as Southern California Cali-fornia and as far East as Hart ford, Conn., according to the Better Business Bureau in New York. In most cases, victims are persons who can ill afford to be swindled. Fast-talking and fast-moving, members of the organization hit with greatest frequency in rural America. Here their way is paved by reputable, well-established firms which have made door-to-door selling a respected re-spected form of distribution. And here, in smaller towns with few stores, these slickly polished gyps can reach the heart of the nation's na-tion's budget-conscious, home-sewing home-sewing market Particularly affected by the activities ac-tivities of the gang have been thousands of young women of high school and college age who each year enter the "Make It Yourself With Wool" contest in 15 western states. In many instances, in-stances, girls have completed their entries in the contest only to find that the fabric which they thought was wool is, in reality, a cheap substitute. Telling a story of personal hard luck, the itinerant salesman offers what are described as luxury lux-ury wool fabrics at sacrifice prices, victims of the racket report re-port Authentic-looking labels identifying the fabrics as "all-wool" "all-wool" play a big part in clinching most sales, they add. Only after the salesman has ?ed away in his high-powered car do both the salesman's story and fabric prove to be synthetic. "For every one of the hundreds of local incidents reported each year thousands of sales unquestionably unques-tionably go unreported1', says W. H. Steiwer, the American Wool Council's president. Where salesmen are apprehended, appre-hended, they are usually ordered to leave the locality immediately, W. H. Steiwer or are fined a sum which represents repre-sents a small fraction of a day's profit from their illegal, enterprise. enter-prise. Occasionally, they are released re-leased in bond and quickly leave town, forfeiting the bond. In the few instances where local authorities au-thorities have apprehended members mem-bers of the "gang" and have been fully aware of their vast operations, opera-tions, local laws have not permitted per-mitted effective prosecution. Wool label, Affixed Low-grade yard goods are shipped to various points across the country where phony labels are affixed identifying the goods as "Virgin Wool" or "Pure Imported Im-ported Wool." "Not only do these operations have serious effects upon the general buying public, they also represent a growing threat to legitimate retail enterprises, and to public confidence in the 'all-wool' 'all-wool' label," Mr. Steiwer warns. "To some degree, this large-scale swindle involves as well the livelihood live-lihood and welfare of thousands of American wool growers." 'The job of putting an end to this vast operation is a challenge to both national and local law enforcement bodies," Mr. Steiwer continued. "The individual citizen, citi-zen, however, can play his p&rt in the task in two ways: "First by asking to see the credentials of all door-to-door salesmen, and buying fabrics and apparel only from persons showing show-ing proper credentials or in retail re-tail stores, and "Second, by reporting immediately immedi-ately to local police and Bettor Business Bureaus any person selling from door-to-door under suspicious circumstances." Addtd Publicity Needed The main problem in coping with the fast-spreading opera- tions is the lack of public aware ness of their nature, most state and local police leaders say. Only recently has any significant attention at-tention been accorded to the problem, with the publication of a comprehensive report in the Sunday magazine supplement, Parade. "Members of the gang have been caught in the act probably hundreds of times, yet the combined com-bined bungling of their victims and the law has let them escape justice," the magazine feature stated. "For at least 40 years, they have thumbed their noses at police, courts, Better Business Bureaus, the American Wool Council, the Federal Trade Commission, Com-mission, even the F.B.I." pXftvo' LOCAL FIREMAN AND POSTMAN WILlA mm BE ABOUND DUR1N' THANKSGIVING WEEK. v t?: TO PICK UP YO' CONTRIBUTION TO ; "porTr fetY Tandgive A i : takes place away from home. . . .
