Rules Based for U.S. Judges On Disclosure of Finances
The Judicial Conference eased off bench income disclosure for federal judges, requiring only income from lecturing boards writing and similar activities to be reported. Reports go to a committee and are public in clerk’s offices, while investments need not be disclosed. Rules stay in place until a broader ethics code is issued, and Supreme Court justices are not bound by them.

Final Approval Near For Diggy TV Ad Ban
The bill to ban cigarette ads on radio and TV next year moves to final Senate approval. It would end $238 million in broadcast advertising and require a stronger Surgeon General health warning on packs within six months of Nixon signing. The measure frees the FTC from a six year ban and ends state regulation on ads, with the FTC warning possibly extending to all media if ads shift to non broadcast channels. Sen Moss warned of a mandatory FTC warning if tobacco companies move ads to print and other media.
