tional business progress must be built.
through the printed aud the spoken
~ord, SO clearly that he who runs may
read, and that the oft-quoted "man in
the street" may understand. Never have
our great journals and periodicals en-
loved such enormous circulations or been
so widely read A large and constantly
increasing reading public seeks eagerly
to know, and it is the mission OF the
publicist to inform and advise them
through all the mediums at his command.
To fulfill that mission, we must call to
arms the vision of the promoter, the
courage of the explorer. the keenness OF
the trader, and the wisdom of the stu
dent They must all be conscripted to
this great service and contribute their
part TO the common cause, and they are
all the proper attributes OF the einclent
advertising man Of today.
That time has long passed, Il indeed
il ever existed, when advertising, under
proper conditions, could be considered
as an experiment or speculation. 1t
has long since become demonstrated
economic factor as a business builder
and clearly proven educational force.
That it may not always, in all hands,
operate with 100 per cent. efficiency is
no more a proof of its failure than an
unsuccessful operation on the human
body by horse doctor would be proof
@. the failure of surgery. Its call is for
skilled men, broad men, who have thor
ouphly mastered the tools with which
they must work, whose sense of public
psychology is sure and true and whose
vision of national opportunity Is as
broad as the world.
Today particularly invites the adver-
tiser to lay up stores of good will and
prestige for future markets. Now is
the time particularly for advertising to
be informative and educational, to help
create new standards Of living, to sta
bilize markets, to make life more COM
Portable and attractive, as well as more
lust and sound.
The war has opened up many new
fields for advertising service. Finan-
cisl and advertising geniuses are in
vited to devise plans through which ia
meet the investing needs of the nation
to distribute sound securities, to incul'
cate thrift. Within two years our in
vesting class has sprung from three
hundred thousand to twenty millions,
and there are yet no plans devised which
adequately meet the need of these new
born investors. Economic and social
fallacies crowd upon US; industrial prob
lens rise on every side Only through
understanding can they be solved, ami
understanding can be created only
through publicity. Legislative action
rises out of public opinion; public opin-
ion is based upon current informaticp
and popular prejudice. These car be
met most effectively through such pub
lie mediums as enlightened advertisers
command. In meeting them they are
serving not only the ends of good citi-
zenship and social progress, but busi-
ness advantage, which can be secure
only in an established social order based
upon sound economic thinking.

The nation which best understands the
facts and the principles underlying
them will profit most largely, and the
nation which takes the most intelligent
advantage OF advertising in its manifold
forms, both as a medium of education
and as q potent factor in building the
business Of the future, will prosper
most.
Advertising is on the threshold Of its
golden age. It will increasingly attract
better brains, and it will increasingly
offer fuller scope to the creative geniuses
Of business, science, art and literature.
Its possibilities for service, in fact, chal-

The war has scattered American prod
ucts all over the world Our goods have
been introduced in markets which they
never before sought or where they never
before had entry. And they were intro
duced at no cost whatsoever to the
manufacturer. They were distributed
on o scale which would have been i'm
possible under normal conditions. There
was no competition. The world des-
perately needed food, fuel, clothing, ma
terials, and machinery. Ours was the
only nation which could supply the de-
mand. But we cannot expect the de-
mand to continue indefinitely.
Burdened with war debts, the Euro
pean bclligcrents are bending every eff
fort to speed up their industrial machin-
cry, to curtail imports and promote ex-
ports. We would indeed be blind were
we not able to see that we must meet
the, kecncst rivalry in international
trade.
Our products will no longer sell them
selves abroad. The demand for them
must be stimulated by effective adver-
tising. Otherwise the unprecedented adj
vantage which chance has bestowed upon
us will be lost
This is absolutely essential, not only
to maintain and to foster our foreign
trade, but also to preserve our present
