'Hecht Company, Urges New
Tactics Be Employed

BALTIMORE, Md, July 23.--"Ad-
vertising today is buried in apple
sauce" George Irving Snowden,
publicity director Of the Hecht Com.
pany, of Baltimore and Washington,
told the Baltimore Advertising Club
at its weekly advertising meeting
here yesterday.
Mr.. Snowden mixed. humor and
experienced advice to merchants,
advertising men and newspaper
workers attending the meeting.
There is too much app1esat1ce
in advertising, and not enough in
the home" declared.
He said that space dominance in
newspapers by advertisers is one
Of the bad features of present-day
advertising, and advocated new
limits OF advertising space in the
daily newspapers, with higher rates
for advertisers, il necessary. .
His point was that the contents
of an advertisement, rather than
the amount Of lineage 1t covered,
should tell the story Of the mer-
chant.
Advertising writer's, Mr.. Snowcen
told the club. should avoid every
evidence Of sloppiness in the copy
they prepared. He suggested that
after a first draft, they let the ad
rest overnight, and go at 1t again
In the morning! until it be brought
as near perfection as possible.
The advertising man." he said
must Know the Kings English
and the Prince Of Wales. as well
He must be aware that selling
problems cannot be solved by snappy
slogans, but by consistent, sincere
and effective effort.
He cannot afford to be in the
least sensitive or temperamental.
If the boss caustically informs him
that his latest copy is rotten, let
him take these words to himself
and ponder them with comment,
reserving. however, the privilege
to reciprocate his superior's senti-
ments."
