Residents Afraid That Bill-
Boards Will Drive Away
Summer Visitors
Certain important groups of Cape
Cod residents have begun a campaign
against the advertising signboard.
Their first aggressive move was in
form of a petition to the Board of
Public Works signed by the eeleetmeu
of fifteen towns in Bax-notable Comty.
representing among other, things that
Cape Cod people are largely depend-
ent for their prosperity on‘ summer;
visitors. Whatever mars the distinc-
tive scenic characteristics of the cape
tends to lessen its attraction for these
temporary sojournera and to diminish
their numbers. Advertising sign-
boards. it is Eontended. have this ef-
fect. Therefore the petitioners de-
mand that the advertising slgnboards
be re ved.
That. in brief. is the ground on
which the Cape Cod folk pray that
certain Cape highways be declared
"scenic highways" and that as’rnuch
they be relieved of the, signboards.
The argument is advanced that sum-
mer visitors came to see the cape and
not to drive through signboard lined
lanes which confine vision to contemp-
lation of boardings setting forth the
virtues of various medicaments and
mechanical devices to the exclusion of
the cape itself. save as to such
glimpses of it as may be got through
chinks in what. with due allowance
for exaggeration. might be called an
unroofed snowshed.
In the last week of April those in-
terested in the maintainance of the
billboard system of rural advertising
made answer through counsel to the
complaints 'ret forth in the petition.
in substance their reply was a general
denial of pretty much everything the
complaints alleged. It denied that the
appeal itself was made in good faith:
denied that hotel owners were in sym-
pathy with it: characterized as “im-
practical persons" artists who object
to slgpboards and declared that thi=
women's clubs supporting the anti-
hilLboard movement are doing so
without careful study of the subject.'

to be insurmountable. This was the
willingness of lapdowners ‘ to roll:
ground for the erection of signboards
and to let the sides and roofs of barns

There was no way to prevent. this
from being done unless a public nuis-
ance was created. That advertising
slgnboards were a public nuisance
could not be proved to the satisfac-
tion of the courts.
Billboard advertising has grown to
be a. large business. Vast sums of
money are invested in it. Advertisers
are able to tempt land and barn and
outbuilding owners with money otters

days of staggering taies and seint re-

laws to do so is problematical.
In the final outcome» dependence

spirit over private interest. ‘

that there be a lea-gs attendance. thus
giving encouragement to the Women’s
Guild. which has undertaken to rawe
81.300 with which to instal new light-
ing, fixtures in the church. This
proposition has already been. endorsed
unanimously. not only by the Women's
Guild. but also by the rector. wardens
and vestrymen. These improvements
will not be made, however. for at least.
six months yet. or until approximately
the full amount has been raised.
The church school outing was a tre-
mendous success and not the least
pleasurable featurp was the attend-
ance of a large number of adults.
There was a fine representation of the
Women's Guild in particular. Much
