Bureau backs down on fire ad accusation
The Better Business Bureau manager in Indianapolis released a statement saying a report to The Indianapolis Times contained false impressions about coercive solicitation methods for two fire prevention magazines. It clarifies no evidence shows the state fire marshal Alfred Hogston or city official Horace W. Carey approved such practices and apologizes to both men. The bureau also notes a forged signature on a check intended to appear as payment to Jesse Hut sells. The city orders police and fire personnel require board authorization to solicit, and Mayor Slack denies any official publication of the manual.
