Unfortunately for most attempts at reform, the advertising accounts of the pharmaceutical concerns buy them favorable publicity from almost every news organ they care to patronize. When the Tugwell-Copeland pure food and drug bill, demanding honest advertising, comprehensible analyses of each product on every label, was introduced in Washington early last December, the machine set to work to picket its trough. They were so successful that many of the magazines and newspapers in which they took space to ballyhoo their panaceas actually backed them in their concerted attack against this measure.

Any intelligent student wants to know more than the poor material offered in the CRIMSON on these matters. As for your articles...
Busy indeed was sleek Alfred Frauenfeld, Austrian Nazi leader. On one of the frequent visits of the police Prince von Waldeck und Pyrmont, official of the German Foreign Office, was found in his home. The Wiener Zeitung, official Dollfuss organ, announced that Nazi Frauenfeld's office was receiving from Germany between 3,000,000 and 4,000,000 marks monthly for bribes, propaganda and explosives...
