4 Standard For
Better Business

One of the standards for ore-than- Truthful
Advertising promulgated by the Better Bust
ness Bureau is that urging advertisers to
quote the minimum as we'll as the maximum
comparative price.
For instance, we recommend that instead OF
advertising hats $50, values up to S., that the
statement be more definite and explicit and
state "$2, values So to SIS"
This recommendation is intended to make
comparative values and prices OF greater
meaning to the public; to insure deflnlteness
and explicitness that deserves and warrants
the belief and confidence of the shopping
public.
Those advertisers who cooperate with the Blu
reau for higher code of advertising ethics
follow this standard when they advertise COM
parative prices. -
