THOMAS CLYDE CURRIE
Postoffice Patrons May
Stop Pandering Advts.
Mail patrons offended by pan
dering advertisements can now
?take steps to curb such mall,
Postmaster A. C. Blalock said
this week in announcing plans
for administering a new law
which gives each family the
right to decide that an ad is
"erotically arousing or sexual
ly provocatlvo."
When an advertisement sent
through the mails Is offensive
on these grounds, a nostal pa
tron can row ask the post of
fice to direct the mailer
to send no more mall to him
and to remove Immediately the
patron's name from all mail
ing lists he owns, controls or
rents.
To assist patrons, the Post
Office Department has publish
ed a brief pamphlet?How You
Can Curb Pandering Advertise
ments?which is now available
at the Warrenton post office.
In addition to explaining how the
law works, the pocket-size leaf
let contains a form letter one
can use when sending his com
plaint to the post office.
The pamphlet explains that
when a patron receives an ad
vertisement which is, In his
opinion, pandering, he must
send the ad, its envelope and
the form letter, or one which
includes its language, to his post
office with the words, "Request
for prohibitory order" on the
face of the envelope.
Postmaster Blalock said:
"This new law should give some
protection to American families
offended by advertisements they
believe to be morally harmful,
particularly to their children.
"Last year the Post Office
Department received some
140,000 complaints from those
offended by pandering adver
tisements. While In most cases
the ads were not legally ob
scene and were therefore mall
able, they are often offensive
and are usually not the type of
material one would want his
children to read," Postmaster
Blalock said.
He added thai "because the
law gives a mail patron the sole
right to decide what Is offen
sive, and does not deny others
the right to receive the same
mall, the Congress felt it does
not violate Constitutional guar
antees of freedom of speech."
While the patron's complaint
will only be directed to the send
er, Postmaster Blalock be
lieves that one or two com
plaints will provide substantial
protection because "the great
1 bulk of this advertising comes
[ from fewer than 20 so-called
| 'smut dealers' who are fre
| quently swapping mailing
lists."
If a mailer does not strike
| a complainant's name from his
I mailing list, and the patron re
j celves a second mailing 30
| days after the firm has receiv
j ed the prohibitory order, he
may bring the matter to the at
i tentlon of the postmaster Issu
ing the initial order by writing
him and enclosing the second

lope. If the mailer still fails
to respect the order, the Post
master General may ask the At
torney General to apply for a
Federal Court order directing
compliance. Failure to observe
the order may be punishable
by a fine or imprisonment.
Alter all these years, I have
had a brand new experience ?
five nights of curfew.
I have lived through two world
wars (served In the Air Corps
In the first one) and have ob
served many advances In
science and technology.
In communications - I well
remember the first radio pro
gram I ever helrd, using a
home-made "crystal sef'and
an earphone. The telephone on
the wall - two shorts, one long
and short, etc. Conrad Nagel
was the first voice I heard on
Vitaphone. Now stereophonic
sound, color TV and satellites.
I have watched my daily paper,
The News And Observer, grow
from a circulation of 35,000
to 153,000.
In transportation.?I have
driven "tin-lizzies" with brass
bands, Overlands, Saxons, Max
wells, EMF 30's. Flown in J.
N. 4's, Curtis Fledglings, Ford
Stout Tri-Motors and jets.
I could go on through oil
lamps to fluorescent tubes and
atomic power but these ex
amples should be sufficient to
bring into sharp focus what we
are prone to call, at least in
conventional terms, progress
With all the advances in
science and technology, which
have made life so easy for us,
it appears that we have lost
sight of human values. Society
has eroded to the lowest
level In modern history and
resembles a badly gullied hill
side where the roots of faith,
hope and charity are having a
hard time finding anchorage.
This directs me to my lead
paragraph, my first experience
with:
CURFEW
It Is quiet on our street,
Ominously quiet,
And yet,
The atmosphere is charged
with uncertainty.
Love! Hate! Memorials! In
congruous.
The radio crackles,
Another spectacular fire!
Why? Is this the answer?
Havr we too long forgotten
The little things in life that
mean so much?
To do justly?
To love mercy?
To walk humbly in His sight?
NOT SATISFIED
The barber had completed
what he thought was a fine job
of cutting a customer's hair.
He held up a mirror behind the
man's head and awaited the
compliments which he was sure
would ensue. Instead, the cus
tomer peered into the mirror
and then said: Just alittlelong
er in the back, please.
