Akiss Prododoeira beadle Pssolbie iy Ads iTL mm ol Existence of Some Stores Rely On Aid I By JULIUS J. ADAMS 1 President Calvin Coolidce was noted for his silence, but he is creaiiea wan one statement that "spoke out loud." Discussing the part advertising has played on economic development, Mr. Cool idge, in 1926 said, "Mass production is only possible where then is mass demand. 1 "Mass demand has been created almost entirely through the devel opment of advertising." The story of advertising is an old one, and as a social and economic force it gainedrecognition far back as 1869, when an anonymous writer in a magizlne in England, speaking of a lecture he had heard said. "The lecturer's discourse on 'forces had overlooked the greatest force jof all, the advertisement, which "is too omnipotent for even imagination to grasp at its lllimttab' pow ers.

ment dedicated to the welfare of Just as they levy a tax to support a chamber of commerce or a board of trade. If you doubt this, watch how quickly a non advertiser will become interested in a move to get a newspaper to campaign for "cleaner streets," "more police protection." "fight against hoodlums," and many other things that threaten the business man's prop, erty. BETTER CLIMATE Every time a newspaper campaigns for better housing, better jobs and better conditions for the people generally, that newspaper is creating a climate in which every business man will enjoy bigger and better business. Yet, many of these same business men will glibly assert that they don't need the newspapers because they "can't help my business." It's funny, though, that if just one line gets in the paper that is unpleasant, the ame guy will yell, "What are you trying to do, put me out of business?" SALES INCREASE But, how's business in Department store sales were about even with last year, most cities report, though many retailers here in New York report that, strangely enough, 1953 was not particularly a boom year in clothing; food sales have increased during the past two weeks; auto output is expected to rise again this week, with much of the action spurred by General Motors; steel production is up; unemployment is leveling off. A itorr out of Washington, D.

reports that a "second roond of easier money, Intended to stimulate business and possibly bring the economic downturn to an end, is reported nnder serious consideration by top White House advisers." The story goes on to report that the plan calls for release of several billion dollars suddenly into banking channels by reducing the amont of reserves which member banks of the Federal Reserve aystem have to keep on deposit with the, regional Federal Reserve Banks. This money would be available to business. It would also have some depressing effect on interest rates, and thus would make borrowing terms easier. WATCHING DOLLAR The national administration in Washington is watching the taxpayer's dollar, and reporti a number of economies that have amounted to a good deal of cash. For instance, the Foreign' Operations administration has cut its costs by $15 million.

The Washington administration has been reduced by 398, and in the Paris office, all types of personnel have been reduced 49 percent. These are some of the reasons why the foreign aid program has cut its reauests to $3.5 billion, which is a reduction of $1 billion from this year. Another saving has been planned by the post office department. Mail bags will now be repaired on the spot, instead of being ahiDoed to Washington. About 4 million bags need repair each year.

They will be repaired in Kiw York, Cincinnati, Phila del Ur. wV vlv Davega stores in New York cele ht fltintf thoip riiamnnrl inhilpA with thepeople. 'sales in all 27 of their stores in the The newspapers seek to enlight met utan Sea Da. en, educate and inform the public. adver.
