BOSTON, Mass, July 18.-Already
something of an artist in the box,
j o h my Double No-hit" Wander

Johnny is out to crack the old ira

es with his port fin Wander Nicer
has already taken his inaugural les
son in canvas daubing with an eye
toward giving the right-handed mas

their honors.
Great Ancestor
Johnny'S interest in painting zoom-
ed from zero to the zenith when he
learned that he was a direct des-
cendant of the great seventeenth
century Dutch master, Jan Vermeer.
After pouring through an exhaustive
biography of his artistic ancestor
Wander Nicer became imbued with
a desire to apply color to canvas
as well as whitewash the opposi-
ton.
He confided his ambition to Aldro
K. Hubbard, Boston and Rockport
artist, who is also a case-hardened
baseball fan.
When Johnny came to Boston dur
ing the Eastern swing of the Reds
Hubbard brought him up to his stu
did, dressed him in a smock and
pancake beret and set him to work
copying print of Vermeers Music
Lesson" Johnny found his paint
brush as hard to control as a
knuckle ball, but was beginning to
make progress when the Reds left
town.

How Advertising Reduces Prices
From the Pocatello Idaho) Journal

Some intellectual-but maybe
not so neutrality-suspicious., with
no business experience, have al
legged that advertising, promotion
and craftsmanship are an economic
waste.
Whether you like these gentle
men personally or not, the allega-
ton deserves an hopest and fair
answer, for there are many men,
bers of the general public who be-
lieve their formula.
James G. Stahlman, publisher
of the Nashville Banner and for
mer president of the American
Newspaper Publishers Associa-
tion. said. in a recent speech to
the Chamber of Commerce of the
United States:
advertising still stands as the
only means by which the highly
geared industrial system of ours
can be kept grinding and by
which the millions of our unem-
ployed can be put permanently
back to work"
Let's analyze the problem and
get down to simple facts.
1t is true that a great manu-
featuring concern like General
Electric sets aside an appropria-
ton for advertising each year,
and that appropriation is a cost
item, charged up to the consumer.
That is the point where Mr.. Tug
well, Mr.. Thurman Arnold and a
lot of other theoretical economists
stop thinking. They refuse to
look farther. Like other half
truths. their formula adds up to a
net error.
The Brookings Institution made
a special study of this general
problem a few years ago, and dis
covered amazing truths.
1t found. for instance. that a
great paper manufacturing con-
Germ reduced the price of its we'll
known household product 80 times
in IS years, though at the same
time it greatly increased its ad-
vertisino appropriation. improved
its product and raised wages. If it
had not been for quantity produc-
Evening star., 1939-07-23

ton the price could not have been
reduced, and quantity production
could not have been achieved
without advertising.
The same is true of the auto
mobile, which is about the most
widely advertised product in daily
use. In 1912 the average whole
sale price Of cars waSabout $4,000.
In 1895 an equally good car sold
for $500, the reduction being
made possible only by quantity
production and unprecedented ad-
Vertlslng. So it goes through the
whole list of the we'll advertised
products.
Now John w. Whoozis may say:
Yes. that may be true, but just
the same, if I didn't have to pay
that advertising item in the cost
bill, I'd get my car cheaper" The
trouble is that he wants to eat his
cake and have it. He wants the
blessings of quantity production
without allowing the cost item
that makes quantity production
possible. No, Mr. Whoozis-if you
don't pay that little item. you'll
pay lot more for your car. You
could run your car cheaper, too
for few minutes-if you didn't
buy oil. That doesn't prove that
oil is a useless expense.
Advertising lubricates our vast
industrial machine. 1t is educa-
ton toward higher living stand
ard. 1t creates desire. Low cost
quantity production Of more high
standard of living products is the
only means of counteracting the
loss of employment caused by
technology. There are many peo-
pie with more or less surplus
money. Advertising coaxes
boarded money out of cold stor-
age and makes it live again. for it
puts idle hands to work. That is
why Mr.. Stahlman's words are
true as gospel. Advertising has
done more to reduce the cost of
manufactured products than any
other force, and it is the most i'm
portant factor for restoring en-
ployment.
