The board of managers of the Joint
Traffic Association, which represents
practically all the great railroads Of the
East, has just adopted a series of rcso-
Iutions which will prove decidedly inter
esting to many persons who have proiitcd
by the Advertisements of the roads. Here
after these will be published only in the
newspapers and standard periodicals, as
will appear from the following resolu-
tons:
Whereas, Organized societies, associ-
ations, commercial companies, trade or
gani2ations, theatrical, amusement and
baseball companies and other similar
bodies, as well as mercantile firms,
publish or control special issues of peri
odicals, circulars, prospectusos, cata-
logues, advertisements, programs of
entertainments, etc, of display adyer-
tisng mediums; and
Whereas, The use of such channels
of railroad advertising, whether in the
freight or passenger departments, and
whether paid for in cash or in transpor-
may be, equivalent to unauthorized re-
auctions of published rates or fares, and
the undue and preferential control Of
business; therefore, be it
Resolved, That no company, party to
the Joint Traffic Association, shall from
and after August /, 1897, publish or par
tcipatc in any advertisements in any
publications of said character
"Resolyed That after said date ad-
vertising shall be confined to regularly
published standard newspapers and pc
riodicals of general circulation published
at regular intervals.
Resolved, That purchases by rail
road companies of the tickets of said
associations, organizations, etc, or do
nations or contributions to such Organ-
cations through committees or individU-
ais, in any form, or to any extent, are
irregular, and should be at once discon-
tnued. "
Railroad companies are generally
given credit for knowing what is best
for their trade, and the resolutions
above tell plainly what mediums they
deem most profitable to advertise their
business in. Merchants associations in
several cities and towns have already
come to the same conclusion and have
decided to stop wasting money in buying
space in worthless catch-penny schemes.
The established newspaper is the proper
place for advertisements, and the only
place where it pays to buy space.
