THE PRESIDENTS MESSAGE
ON ADVERTISING
Contained in the Following Letter to
the President of the Associated
Advertising Clubs of the World.

The White House, Washington.
My dear Mr.. Houston:
Advertising is a factor of con-
istantly increasing power in modern
business, and it very vitality affects
the public in all its phases, par
ticularly since the mediums for the
dissemination of advertising have in
creased so remarkably in recent
years. For business men, therefore,
it is of the utmost Importance that
the highest standards should be ap-
piled to advertising as to business
itself.
THE country is to be congratu-
lated on the work of the Associated
Advertising Clubs to establish and
enforce a code of ethics based upon
candid truth that shall govern ad-
vertising methods, and the effect OF
its work should be of the greatest
benefit to the country. 1t augurs
permanence and stability in indus
trial and distributive methods, be-
cause it means good business judg-
ment, and more than that, it indi-
Gates a fine conception of public
obligation on the part of men in
business, a conception which is one
of the inspiring things in our out
look upon the future of national
CORDIALLY and sincerely yours,
WOODROW WILSON"

Now Is The Time to Build

Building has been almost at a
stand-still since the beginning of the
European War. This was brought
about because of the high price of
lumber, scarcity of labor and the
high price of various things that en-
tered into the construction of build
ings. The time has now come to get
busy on the building proposition
again, the sooner the better. There
is no use to wait for low prices be-
cause it is doubtful if we will ever
get back to the price levels that ex-
listed before the war.
Other things are going to stay
comparatively high as long As farm
produce remains high and certainly
all of US want to get all we can fur
what is produced on our farms. So
let's forget about this proposition
of waiting for lumber to go down to
build. 1t has been estimated that the
next ten years will see practically
all of the pine lumber in the South
cut out and | should not be at al
surprised to see lumber go up IL
stead OF down. Therefore. 90 ahead
