Ad Men Seek In Vain
For Answer to Critics

The host of advertising men who
met in "war council" to consider
ways and means of meeting cur
rent attacks on advertising, at
Hot Springs, Va, departed with
trouble in drawing up the fol-
lowing outline of charges leveled
against advertising:
l. Advertizing, in certain cir
cumstances, breeds monopoly.
2. Advertising is simply an ad-
ded cost to the consumer.
3. Advertising is used to raise
the price for actual or supposed
extra values.
4. Trademarks and brand
names are misleading, cost the
consumer money, and are false
guides to real value.
5. Advertising is needless where
the demand for a product exceeds
the supply.
6. Because of his large expendl-
ture for advertising, the national
advertiser gains a strangle hold
on the press and other means of
disseminating information.
T. Advertising does not give the
consumer the information he
wants. 1t should be purely factual,
for then the consumer would al
ways buy merchandise of the best
quality he could afford instead Of
buying merchandise sold him on
emotional appeal
8. Standardization and manda-
tory grade labelling of all products
are the only true guides for the
consumer.
g. Advertising copy is nonsen-
sical, frivolous, and unbelievable.
But the convention, in the
words of Printers Ink, "did not
come up with any definite plan to
meet the challenge it had so dill
gently studied.
"This failure gave the conveu-
tion an ending of anti-climax.
There is no question but that the
majority of the more than TOO
manufacturer, agency and media
men expected a definite program
to be presented, and the efficient
method by which the audience
was led up to climax that never
happened made the disappolnt-
ment the keener."

ENAMELWARE
BAKES FASTER

Recent tests by the Bureau of
Home Economics shows that enam-
elware is speedier than aluminium,
glass or pottery for short baking
jobs, such as pie crust. They found
that a pie shell that baked to per-
fection in an enamelware pie pan
in 7 or 8 minutes, took 10 or II
minutes of baking in aluminium,
glass, or pottery. The difference
in baking time may be even great
er for longer baking jobs like loaf
cake or bread.

COTTON UNDERWEAR BEST

Which wears best, cotton or
rayon, for children's knitted un-
derwear? Bureau of Home Econ
omics tests show that cotton is
longer wearing.
Little boys union suits of cot.
ton, tested, stood the hard wear
they give them better than rayon
ones. Girls vests got less strain,
but those made of rayon lengthen-
ed in the wash and eventually
needed more mending than cotton
vests. The cottons showed up
better in the laundering tests, too.
On the average, it takes almost
four cotton union suits or rayon
suits a year to keep a little boy
in underwear, while little girl
can get along with cotton or 8
rayon knitted vests a year.

ing, cast iron pans should be thor
ougly dried after washing, and
rubbed with mineral oil if they're
to be stored any length of time.
Glass and earthenware can be
secured with a fine abrasive with
out damage, or washed in a strong
alkaline soap to remove grease.
A course abrasive can be used
safely on zinc galvanized pals
and buckets, as they will stand
harsher treatment.

Coca Cola
Position
Outlined

Harrison Jones, executive vice
president of the Coca Cola Co.
OF Atlanta, Ga, issued the fol-
lowing statement Saturday in
reference to ratio ing of syrup;
'The Federal Government
through OPM, recently issued an
order which restricts any manu-
facturer using sugar (also any
jobber or wholesaler) from &C.
cepting larger deliveries from an
importer or refiner in any one
month than were received IN the
corresponding month of 1910; or
from accepting delivery OF more
than 80 days supply (based on
1910 volume); or from using
from stocks on hand in excess of
so days supply. These limita-
tons do not apply to supplies
needed for orders from the War
and Navy Departments, or from
an agency of the United States
for "Lend-Lease" disposition, or
from states of the British Empire
or from eight Anti-Axis powers.
Cooperating With this pro-
gram and conforming to the gov
ornamental order, we are supply
ing bottlers and jobbers through
out the country the same volume
of syrup each received in the
corresponding month of 1910,
with provision of additional al
lowance for goods now being
supplied to the War md Navy
Departments.
1t should be emphasized that
the Government itself has force
fully-and, we believe, correctly
assured the country that limi-
tations on the use of sugar have
been imposed not because of any
existing or impending shortage
but to prevent one.
1--WE are deeply interested in
the avoidance of any sugar
shortage, and profoundly con-
WINGED that the Government is
correct in stating that this can
&c accomplished with the loyal
aid of industrial and civilian
users, and this we pledge: TIL
integrity of our product will be
unimpaired. The American peo-
pie can continue to trust its
quality"
