The Washington times., 1917-09-17
HOW TO REACH THE PEOPLE

conducted in every daily and weekly newspaper in
the United States for an Insignificant of money
FOURTH-The question of advertising or ad-
vertisng should be left entirely to the discretion of the
Secretary of the Treasury upon whose shoulders rests
responsibility for the success of the bond issue.
FIFTH-Tf bonds COULD be sold without the
expenditure of dollar for advertising in this and fur
ther bond issues of course not dollar should be thus
spent, and any money appropriated for advertising
should be returned to the Treasury.
SIXTH-But Congress should not ignore the
tribute paid by every successful business concern OF
the United States to the power and the absolutely IN
DISPENSABLE force of organized paid advertising:
HENRY FORDS CASE.
You may say Every man should realize the sit
uation the patriotic duty every American able to doso
should buy these bonds to his last dollar, and to talk
of advertising is preposterous.
You might also say Every American should
know the value the cheap price, the wonderful service
rendered by the Ford car every American able to doso
should buy Ford car
Quite true; every American perhaps would buy a
Ford car if every American really knew about it, but
Mr. Ford still advertises regularly, extensively, and
extensively, for with each year there is new Ford
issue, and new reason for pubEcity-despite the
fact that Fords product perhaps the best known in
the world.
Mr.. Ford is not ignorant, lavish, or extravagant,
kind words cor general knowledge or anything else
that costs nothing would take the place of paid adver
tsing, that would suit Mr.. Ford.
But whether it be Mr. Ford or Mr.. Rockefeller, or
Mr. Armour or Mr. Schwab, the power of advertisings
recognized in SALESMANSHIP as equal to the power
of gunpowder in war.
What do J. Pierpont Morgan & Co. do when they
have bonds for sale? They ADVERTISE. What does
the merchant do, even when he means to give some
thing away for less than it cost him? HE ADJ
VERTISES.
WHAT is ADVERTISING?
Advertising is not dsgraceful sordid, selfish. 1t
is simply common sense, part of business machinery
as much part of distribution as the national rail-
way or the elevator in the tall office building.
Advertising will tell ALL the people about the
bond issue-and nothing else will.
Advertising will SELL this bond issue, and future
bond issues, to an absolute moral certainty.
Advertising extensively and effectively in every
daily and weekly newspaper in the United States will
cost rdiculously trivial sum in proportion to the OBJ
ject to be attained.
THE BUYING HABIT.
Advertise the bond issue NOW.
Dispose of this issue quickly and at the same time
educate and prepare the mind of the public for other
bond issues Create the BOND-BUYING HABIT
Mromeh ad5er1lung. You can create it in no other
way.
Publishing this announcement, based upon the
The Washington times., 1917-09-17

UNITED STATES for a total cost Of one million
three hundred and eighty thousand dollars.
Now, what would this advertising appropria-
ton do?
1t would enable the Government of the United
States to print haf-page advertisement, in every
daily newspaper in the United States EIGHT TIMES.
Itwould enable the Government to print quarter of
page advertisement for two months in every issue OF
every weekly newspaper in the United States
IS IsADvERTIsING SEEN?
DOES advertising command attention? Let this
and similar pages published in The Washington Times
by the American Press Association answer the ques-
tion Is there any man in Washington interested, from
the Secretary of the Treasury to the least of the Gov
eminent employees who has not heard THROUGH
THIS ADVERTISING, the argument in favor of bond
sales by newspaper publicity?
If this one newspaper, THE WASHINGTON
TIMES. has power to command the attention Of all
those concerned in the Government at Washington,
would not ALL THE NEWSPAPERS, DAILY AND
WEEKLY, OF THE UNITED STATES have power to
command the attention Of ALL the people Of the
United States?
If the American Press Association has been able
by judicious expenditure of money in advertising to
reach the attention of those that should cooperate in
every way with the Secretary of the Treasury in his
difficult task would not the Secretary through adver
tisements more powerfully and ngeniously prepared
by himself and his assistants be able by the use of
ALL the newspapers to reach the eye and the patriotic
conscience of every inhabitan of the United States?
Could any Washington group of bankers or mer-
chants no matter what their story, have been able to
command the attention that this paid advertising, in
favor of advertising publicity, has been able to COM
mand in Washington?
LIMIT THE ADVERTISING.
has been suggested that if the Secretary of the
Treasury should undertake any advertising of bonds,
he must necessarily do all KINDS of advertising Why
must he do so? Is it compulsory upon him to adver-
tise blboards in street cars and other ways, since
he can reach and talk directly to THE ENTIRE PEO-
PIE through the daily and weekly press of the United
States exclusively?
Is there any American able to buy Government
bond that is not reader of SOME newspaper? If the
Secretary of the Treasury enabled by the wisdom of
Congress to use in his bond-seIing campaign EVERY
newspaper, must he not necessarily reach EVERY
MAN AND WOMAN ABLE TO BUY A BOND?
A PUBLIC SERVICE.
The American Press Association has rendered to ,
the Government real service in its expenditure of
money for the purpose of emphasizing the value of ad
vertsing THROUGH advertising. There is no desire
to do more than emphasize these points:
FIRST-To sell bonds to all the people, ALL of
the people must be reached convinced, and inspired
The Washington times., 1917-09-17

talked to, appealed to and convinced, in order to
sell billions of United States bonds now, and other
billions of bonds later.
All of these people can be reached, talked to in
their homes, through the advertising columns of the
daily and weekly newspapers, and they cannot be
reached Systematically and effectively IN ANY
OTHER WAY.
CASUAL NOTICE WON'T DO.
Circulars through the mall notices in front of
the poStoffice, casual words spoken by the local
banker-Who does not come in contact with per cent
of the popuation-such things do not reach the minds
of the people or STAY in the minds of the people.
The newspaper which comes daily or weekly into
the home, as an old friend, the editor known to the
reader, the paper possessing the confidence of the
reader, accustomed to taking as IMPORTANT that
which he sees in his newspaper is the medium
that must be used in national appeal to the people
to invest their BILLIONS in this war.
Admirable individual enthusiasm, personal in its
character paid advertising inserted in few big news
papers by bankers and patriotic merchants, such eff
forts do well for one relatively small issue, taking the
cream from the national financial milk pan.
But if you want to go deep into the pockets
OF ALL the people, if you want to persuade them that
the money which would have helped to pay off a
lllOllSoSC, vi Ouy pICCC vi
boy to college, should, patriotic duty, be invested
in the war bonds of the Government, you must talk
to all the people Systematically and through sys-
tematc advertising the only agency that will reach
all of them.
RESPONSIBILITY WITH CONGRESS-
If Congress does not supply those responsible for
the sale of the bonds with the triflng sum necessary
to advertise the bonds the responsibility will be with
Congress- Tell all the people WHY the bonds are
issued, WHY patriotism demands their purchase,
what KIND of war it is upon which this money is to
be spent and why these vast sums are needed.
1t is not merely the reason for buying bonds that
should be published in all of the newspapers, but the
great and oVerpoWerlng reason for supporting this
war to the last necessary dollar.
WHAT COST?
What would be the cost of selling the bonds and
establishing through advertising the bond-buying
habit among the people3
Here is the answer, which need not frighten the
most Virtuousy economic laWnaker.
The bond issue can be thoroughly advertised, and
the bonds SOLD, in campaign published IN EVERY
DAILY AND WEEKLY NEWSPAPER IN THE
