(c) Represented through said circular that “Century Travel Service was established in 1921”; the facts being the corporation in question was organized in 1940; and the travel business carried on by the aforesaid two individuals, trading as “Century Travel Service,” ete., was organized in 1942; (d) Falsely represented through a headline in heavy type, in their said circular, reading “15 SPECIAL FEATURES INCLUDED IN RATES LISTED ABOVE” followed by a list of purported special features numbered from 1 to 15, inclusive, that there were 15 distinct special features available to all purchasers of their tours;

The facts being that certain features, such as “continental breakfast included,” were, as disclosed by the circular, “available only at some hotels”; other features listed separately in a different form referred to the same thing ; and the feature “Travel on Credit, No Money Down, Pay Later,” was not Ti--—&% foyv—@h—8EhET CENTURY TRAVEL SERVICE, INC., ET AL. 213 212 Complaint available to their customers, as they did not directly grant credit but only suggested that their customers might borrow from a bank to finance the trip;

Before Ur. Andrew B. Duvall, trial examiner. Mr. Daniel J. Murphy for the Commission.

Mr. Maz Seltzer, of New York City, for respondents. Complaint Pursuant to the provisions of the Federal Trade Commission Act, and by virtue of the authority vested in it by said act, the Federal Trade Commission, having reason to believe that Century Travel Service, Inc., a corporation, Harry Craig Cooper and Joseph C. Cooper, Jr., individuals and copartners trading under the names of Century Travel Service, Century Travel Service Deluxe Tours, Mexican Advisory Tourist Bureau, and Florida Advisory Hotel Bureau, hereinafter referred to as the respondents, have violated the provisions of said act, and it appearing to the Commission that a proceeding by it. in respect thereof would be in the public interest, hereby issues its complaint, stating its charges in that respect as follows: Paracrary 1. Respondent, Century Travel Service, Inc., is a corporation organized, existing, and doing business under and by virtue of the laws of the State of New York. Respondent, Harry Craig Cooper, also known as H. Craig Cooper, residing at 1016 Fifth Avenue, New York, N. Y., and his brother, respondent Joseph C. Cooper, drs Complaint 43 F.T.C. residing at 1016 Fifth Avenue, New York, N. Y., are individuals and copartners trading under the names of Century Travel Service, Century Travel Service Deluxe Tours, Mexican Advisory Tourist Bureau, and Florida Advisory Hotel Bureau. Respondents’ principal office and place of business is located at Room 811, 655 Fifth Avenue, New York 22, N. Y.; respondents also maintain a mailing address in Jersey City, N. J.

Par. 2. Respondents are now, and have been for several years last past, engaged in business as travel and tour agents and in connection therewith solicit the sale of, and sell, transportation, hotel accommodations, and other incidental services.

Par. 3. Respondents, in connection with the solicitation for the sale, and the sale, of transportation, hotel accommodations, and other incidental services, have maintained, and now maintain, activities of a commercial and business nature involving intercourse and communication with numerous individuals located in States other than the State of New York. Respondents have disseminated, and caused to be disseminated, by the United States mails, an advertising circular to customers and prospective customers located in States other thar the State of New York. Certain of respondents’ customers are located in States other than the State of New York, and such customers cause orders for tours, money orders, and other property, to be transported from their respective States to the respondents’ place of business located in the State of New York. Respondents cause tickets and reservations to be transported from the State of New York to customers located in States other than the State of New York. Respondents maintain, and have maintained for several years last past, a course of trade in commerce between and among the various States of the United States and in the District of Columbia. Par. 4. In the course and conduct of their said business, respondents are now, and have been, in competition with corporations, firms, and individuals engaged in the solicitation for sale, and sale, of transportation, hotel accommodations, and incidental services, in commerce, among and between the various States of the United States and in the District of Columbia. Among such competitors are many who do not engage in unfair or deceptive acts or practices, in commerce, in connection with their business.

Par, 5. In the course and conduct of their business, as above described, respondents solicit the sale of, and sell, “packaged tours,” which are travel trips, at an all-inclusive price, including transportation, hotel reservations, baggage and passenger transfers between terminals and hotels, sight-seeing trips, stops at night clubs, etc. CENTURY TRAVEL SERVICE, INC., ET AL, 215 212 Complaint During the past few years, because of wartime restrictions on travel, respondents have been principally soliciting the sale of, and selling, “packaged tours” to Miami Beach, Fla. In connection therewith and for the purpose of aiding and promoting the sale, by them, of such “packaged tours,” respondents have disseminated, and caused to be disseminated, by the United States mails, an advertising circular, which circular respondents have displayed, and caused to be displayed, in railroad terminals and other transportation centers. Respondents in said advertising circular make the following representations: (1) In the upper right-hand corner of respondents’ circular appears the word “APPROVED,” surrounding a circle which reads, “Century Travel Service Deluxe Tours.” Respondents’ representation “AP-— PROVED,” as above described, has been made, and is made, for the purpose of conveying, and it does convey, the impression that such tours are approved or sanctioned by some authorized governmental transportation agency.

In truth and in fact, the United States Government, through its authorized agent, the Office of Defense Transportation, has not approved nor sanctioned such tours; but on the contrary, due to wartime emergency, it has discouraged, and does discourage, the active solicitation of such travel.

(2) Respondents’ circular lists the following rates: Special MIAMI BHACH AT AMAZINGLY LOW RATES! !- INCLUSIVE 1944-5 8 DAYS RATE $79. 95 INCLUSIVE up 14 DAYS RATE $89. 95 Respondents’ representations as to such prices have been made for the purpose of conveying, and they do convey, the impression that such tour rates ran from $79.95 for 8 days to $89.95 for 14 days. In truth and in fact, such tour rates for 8 days ran from a minimum of $79.95 up to $99,95; and for 14 days ran from $89.95 up to $136.95.

(3) Respondents’ circular advertises “INCLUSIVE RATE.” This representation, by respondents, was made, and is made, for the purpose of conveying, and it does convey, the impression that such rates were in fact inclusive of all charges.

Tn truth and in fact such rates were not so inclusive of all charges, as the bottom of the circular, in smaller type states: “Add U. S. tax of $8.03 per person to above rates.”

Complaint 43 F. T.C. (4) Respondents’ circular states:

Established 1921 CENTURY TRAVEL SERVICE In truth and in fact Century Travel Service has not been established since 1921.

(5) Respondents’ circular has a heading in heavy type which reads: 15 SPECIAL FHATURES INCLUDED IN RATHS LISTED ABOVH, and under which are listed 15 alleged special features. This representation, by respondents, was made, and is made, for the purpose of conveying, and it does convey, the impression that there are 15 distinct special features so listed and that they are all available to all customers of respondents’ purchasing such tours. In truth and in fact there are not 15 distinct special features so listed and all features so listed are not available to all customers of respondents’ purchasing such tours; examples: Feature No. 8, the free use of beach, beach umbrellas and chairs, is not available to all purchasers but is available as the circular itself states, only “at some hotels.” Feature No, 11, the continental breakfast, is only, as the circular itself states, “included at some hotels.” Feature No. 13 offers “TRAVEL ON CREDIT, NO MONEY DOWN, PAY LATER.” The respondents do not grant such credit, nor do they directly make such credit facilities available. Features Nos. 3 and 15 refer to the same feature of hotel accommodations. (6) Respondents’ circular, under the listing of the “15 SPECIAL FEATURES,” states, “(Operated by Century Travel Service, New York):”

In truth and in fact the “15 Special Features” are not operated by Century Travel Service of New York.

(7) Respondents’ circular, under a heading “Select Hotels,” lists 20 hotels, for the purpose of conveying, and it does convey, the impression that such “Select Hotels,” so listed, are available for selection by respondents’ customers.

In truth and in fact, all such “Select Hotels,” so listed, are not available for selection by respondents’ customers; many of such listed hotels, for some time past have been taken over by the United States armed forces.

(8) Respondents’ letterheads, at the top thereof, state: Century Travel Service AUTHORIZED-BONDED AGENTS.

CENTURY TRAVEL SERVICE, INC., ET AL. vA | 212 Findings In truth and in fact “Century Travel Service” are not “Authorized- Bonded Agents.” It is true that Century Travel Service, Inc., is bonded, but only in connection with limited travel to Europe; none of the respondents, including Century Travel Service, Inc., is an authorized bonded agent in connection with tours to Florida, which represent the principal part of respondents’ business. Par. 6. The acts, practices, and methods of respondents in making and using the aforesaid false and misleading statements, representations and implications have the capacity and tendency to, and do, mislead and deceive members of the public into the erroneous and mistaken belief that such statements, representations, and implications are true and to cause a substantial number of the purchasing public to purchase respondents’ travel services because of such erroneous and mistaken belief. Asa result, trade in commerce between and among the several States of the United States and in the District of Columbia has been unfairly diverted to the respondents from their competitors in said commerce, to the injury of said competitors and to the public. Par. 7. The aforesaid acts and practices of the respondents, as herein alleged, are all to the prejudice of the public and of respondents’ competitors and constitute unfair methods of competition in commerce and unfair and deceptive acts and practices in commerce within the intent and meaning of the Federal Trade Commission Act. Report, Finpines 4s To THE Facts, AND ORDER Pursuant to the provisions of the Federal Trade Commission Act, the Federal Trade Commission on March 27, 1945, issued and subsequently served its complaint in this proceeding upon the respondents named in the caption hereof, charging them with the use of unfair methods of competition in commerce and unfair and deceptive acts and practices in commerce in violation of the provisions of said act. After the issuance of said complaint and the filing of respondent’s answer thereto, testimony and other evidence were introduced before an examiner of the Commission theretofore duly designated by it, and said testimony and other evidence were duly recorded and filed in the office of the Commission. Thereafter, the proceeding regularly came on for final hearing before the Commission on the said complaint, answer, testimony and other evidence, report of the trial examiner and exceptions thereto, and briefs of counsel (oral argument having been requested but subsequently waived) ; and the Commission, having duly considered the matter and being fully advised in the premises, finds that this proceeding is in the interest of the public and makes this its findings as to the facts and its conclusion drawn therefrom. Findings 43 F. T. C. FINDINGS AS TO THE FACTS Paracraru 1. (a) Respondent Century Travel Service, Inc., is a corporation organized and existing under the laws of the State of New York, with its office and principal place of business at 501 Fifth Avenue, New York, N. Y. This respondent was organized in October 1940.

(b) Respondent, Harry Craig Cooper, is an individual residing at 1016 Fifth Avenue, New York, N. Y. He is president and treasurer of the corporate respondent, Century Travel Service, Inc., and is also associated with respondent, Joseph C. Cooper, Jr., in a partnership organized in January 1942 and trading as Century Travel Service, Century Travel Service Deluxe Tours, Mexican Advisory Tourist Bureau, and Florida Advisory Hotel Bureau.

(c) Respondent, Joseph C. Cooper,.Jr., is an individual residing at 1016 Fifth Avenue, New York, N. Y. He is vice president and secretary of respondent Century Travel Service, Inc., and is also associated with respondent, Harry Craig Cooper, in the aforesaid partnership.

(d) Respondents are now, and for several years last past have been, engaged in business as travel and tour agents, and in the conduct of this business solicit the sale of, and sell, transportation, hotel accomodations, and various services to tourists.

Par. 2. In the course and conduct of said business, respondents maintain, and have maintained, activities of a commercial and business nature involving intercourse and communication with numerous individuals located in States other than the State of New York, and they have disseminated and caused to be disseminated by the United States mails an advertising circular to customers and prospective customers located in States other than the State of New York. Respondents cause tickets and reservations to be transported to, and receive from, such customers orders for tours, money orders, and other property. Respondents maintain, and for several years last past have maintained, a course of trade in commerce, as “commerce” is defined in the Federal Trade Commission Act, between and among various States of the United States and in the District of Columbia. Par. 8. Respondents are, and have been, engaged in competition with corporations, firms, and individuals who also solicit the sale of, and sell, transportation, hotel accommodations, and various services to tourists in commerce among and between various States of the United States and in the District of Columbia. Among such competitors are many who do not engage in unfair or deceptive acts or practices in commerce in the conduct of such business. CENTURY TRAVEL SERVICE, INC., ET AL. 219 212 Findings Par. 4. (a) In the conduct of their aforesaid business, respondents solicit the sale of, and sell, “packaged tours.” These are travel trips the price of which includes transportation, hotel reservations, baggage and passenger transfers between terminals and hotels, sight-seeing trips, visits to night clubs, and similar things. As a result of wartime restrictions on travel during the last few years, respondents’ principal business has been the sale of such packaged tours to Miami Beach, Fla. For the purpose of aiding and promoting the sale of these tours, respondents disseminated, as aforesaid, an advertising circular and also caused copies of such circular to be displayed in railroad terminals and other transportation centers. (5) In the upper right-hand corner of respondents’ said circular is a design surrounded by the words “Century Travel Service— De Luxe Tours” and immediately above this design is the word “APPROVED.” Because of the well-known policy of the Government during the past few years in discouraging, limiting, and restricting unnecessary travel in the interest of the war effort, the use of the word “APPROVED” by respondents in connection with their tours has had the capacity and tendency to, and did in fact, cause a substantial number of people to believe that such tours had some form of approval or sanction by the Office of Defense Transportation or some authorized governmental transportation agency. (c) Printed in large type near the top of respondents’ said circular is the following heading:

SPECIAL MIAMI BEACH For Your Vacation At Amazingly Low Rates!!! a 1944-45 8 DAYS Inclusive $79.95 Rate up 14 DAYS Inclusive $89.95 Rate These statements constitute representations having the capacity and tendency to cause a substantial portion of the purchasing public to believe that respondents’ tour rates were from $79.95 for 8 days to $89.95 for 14 days, and that these prices were actually “inclusive” and represented the total cost. In truth and in fact, however, the rates for respondents’ tours for 8 days ran from a minimum of $79.95 up and for 14 days from $89.95 up. The “inclusive rate” was not in fact inclusive, inasmuch as a tax of $8.03 per person was added to respondents’ stated rates. The addition of the said tax was disclosed in much smaller type near the bottom of the circular, and if not ob- Findings 43 F. T.. Cz served it was called to the attention of the prospective purchaser only when arrangements for such tour were being negotiated with respondents.

(d@) Respondents’ said circular further represents that Century Travel Service was “established 1921,” whereas in truth and in fact said service was not established in 1921 and, as heretofore found, Century Travel Service, Inc., was organized in 1940, and the partnership composed of respondents Harry Craig Cooper and Joseph C. Cooper, Jr., trading as Century Travel Service, Century Travel Service Deluxe Tours, and under other names, was organized in 1942. (e) The aforesaid circular issued by respondents bears a headline in heavy type reading:

15 SPECIAL FEATURES INCLUDED IN RATHS LISTED ABOVE followed by a list of purported special features numbered from 1 to 15, inclusive. Said statement constitutes a representation that there are 15 distinct special features available to all purchasers of respondents’ tours, and such representation has the capacity and tendency to cause members of the purchasing public to believe that 15 distinct special features are made available by respondents. Asa matter of fact, there are not 15 distinct special features, and all features so listed are not available to all purchasers of respondents’ tours. For example, the feature listed as No. 3, “Room With Twin Beds and Private Bath in Miami Beach Hotel,” and feature No. 15, “Also Other Select Hotels to Choose From,” refer to the same matter of hotel accommodations; feature No. 8, “Free Use of Beach, Beach Umbrellas, Chairs, at Some Hotels,” and feature No. 11, “Continental Breakfast Included at Some Hotels” are not available to all customers of respondents, for, as disclosed by the circular, they are available only “at some hotels”; feature No. 18, “Travel on Credit, No Money Down, Pay Later,” is not a feature made available to respondents’ customers, as respondents do not directly grant such credit or make credit facilities available to their customers, but only suggest that their customers may borrow from a bank to finance the trip.

(7) Respondents’ said circular, after listing the above-mentioned “15 Special Features,” states in immediate conjunction therewith “(Operated by Century Travel Service, N. Y.).” As a matter of fact, the said “special features” are not operated by respondents. (7) Respondents’ circular, under a heading “Select Hotels,” lists some 20 hotels, thus conveying to customers or prospective customers that any of the hotels so listed may be selected. The fact is, however, that during the time respondents’ circular was being distributed a large number of the hotels so listed were being used by the United CENTURY TRAVEL SERVICE, INC., ET.AL. 221 212 Order _ States Army and were not available for use by respondents’ customers. (h) Respondents’ letterheads bear the following legend: Century Travel Service Authorized-Bonded Agents It is true that Century Travel Service, Inc., is bonded, but only in connection with certain travel to Europe. None of the respondents, including Century Travel Service, lic., is an authorized or bonded agent in connection with the tours to Florida which represent the principal part of respondents’ business.

Par. 5. The use by the respondents of the aforesaid false and misleading statements and representations has the capacity and tendency to mislead and deceive members of the purchasing public into the erroneous and mistaken belief that such statements and representations are true, and to cause a substantial number of the purchasing public to deal with respondents because of such erroneous and mistaken belief. As a result, trade in commerce has been unfairly diverted to respondents from their competitors to the injury of said competitors and of the public.

CONCLUSION The aforesaid acts and practices of respondents are all to the prejudice of the public and of respondents’ competitors and constitute unfair methods of competition in commerce and unfair and deceptive acts and practices in commerce within the intent and meaning of the Federal Trade Commission Act.

ORDER TO CEASE AND DESIST This proceeding having been heard by the Federal Trade Commission upon the complaint of the Commission, the answer of respondents, testimony and other evidence taken before an examiner of the Commission theretofore duly designated by it, report of the trial examiner and exceptions thereto, and briefs of counsel, and the Commission having made its findings as to the facts and its conclusion that said respondents have violated the provisions of the Federal Trade Commission Act:

9.
