HOW ADVERTISING IS REGARDED BY
 PACKING CONCERN
(By Louis F. Swift. President
 Swift & Col

My T 0W41L 4SS1dShI Ut
 Swift & Co.)
 Advertising IS commonly thought of only in connection with selling com modities, but recently advertising space has been employed extensively to sell ideas. This type of attvertis- ing has been termed educational or institutional Swift & Co. has used both forms extensively during the last two years.
 The institutional advertising of Swift & Go. has had two objectives; first, to place the facts of our bus mess before the public, in order to build good will; and, second, to counteract misrepresentation and propaganda directed against this in- dustry. We have tried to make this advertising constructive and the greatest care has been taken to see that every statement agrees with the facts and does not misrepresent conditions
 We have been accused of ulterior motives in inaugurating such d widespread campaign as We have engaged in. Some have even ac- cused us of trying to influence edi- torial opinion.
 The Editor and the Ad.
 
 I wish to go on record here as say. ing that in placing our institutiona' advertising no consideration has beer 1 given to the editorial policy of the paper or magazine. Circulation anG 1 territory have been the only factors 1 which have influenced us, for we | have felt that our advertising ha: been needed equally in papers which l are friendly and in those which art 1 antagonistic to the packing industry 1 It has been my experience that tht | average editor has been absolute1. un1nf1uenced by the fact that VI | were or were not advertising in hi paper, except of course, as his opin 1 ion might be affected by the fact presented in the advertisements. Or | the other hand, many editors witl i whom we have advertised have al | most leaned backwards-have beer less outspoken in favor of the pack CTS, than they would have been hat | they not been afraid that their read 1 CTS might feel that they had beel unduly influenced by the financial re 1 turns fro mthe space occupied b, i our advertisements.
 i We do not feel that the need fo l educational advertising has passed As long as batting big business con tinues to be a favorite and profitabI sport for political aspirants, paid vertising space will be the most e fective way of getting the facts o big business before the public. The advertising of ideas, and in sttutions is still in it's infancy, and look for a marked increase in thi type of publicity in the future.
