Ad Club -Plans Campaign to
1 .Put Stop to Deceiving

Misrepresentation In advertising- will
. be fought In a vigorous campaign
planned ror 113 by tha Ad club."
'I have answer to a cor of letters
written prominent ' Portland business
men. I have interviewed the heads of
the large department stores. ,' All have
.. promised to back the fight," said. Fresl
' dent A; O.Clarlr of the Ad club today,
-."Matty of ue differ on the real defini
tion of the term, -misrepresentation, and
how'farone ,jnay go . without reaching
wie nmu or ovor-stawment. ; . .
, . "Advertising, to be valuable, muat In
eplr confidence. If the future of ad
vertialng is to be of any value, we must
conserve Ha. power and Influence now,
All, kinds of goods can be made by rule
-to sen them requires. salesmanship.
"In most esses the advertised " price
! Is out more than half., How many be
lieve In misstatement of values? Not
one, & The store that expects belief, for
Bucn statements reflects on intelligence.
Advertising- of this kind borders very
cioaciy on the variety that ought to be
corrected. - , , ,
Government Is Busy.
' "Supposing some of our real estate
friend should offer 11000 lots at 9500.
How much confidence would It InBplreT
The merchant who lends his name to
methods that are misleading, contributes
his share to' the lack ot confidence in
- the integrity of business.
-"The federal government Is taking a
band and is bringing about great re
forms in the manufacture and sale of
articles intended for human food. Why
' not extend this reform to the articles
intended for human wear and use? New
.York state has undertaken to protect its
citisena and 'all wool' and a yard wide
means just that and nothing less -:
"I believe that the owners of the busi
ness structures that have been and are
- now using these -overdrawn statements
of valus want to quit it- Away down
in their hearts, they know It is not
right. ' I hcaro. several of them say so,
Deceiving Pabllo.
;"There is so much that Is good. Why
encourage its opposite? Every success
ful enterprise depends for success on its
friends. .The newspapers and the stores
in this city are the products of the
friends of each. Both Owe a duty to
their - friends and to themselves, and
my earnest hope and belief is that both
will come to realise it at no distant date.,
"There is also another example of
advertising so called, that In my opin
ion should b4 corrected. I refer to the
unsightly cloth signs we sea plastered
across the fronts of "4 hundred stores
reading something like this: 'Bankrupt
stock, 26c on SI. Forced to move by
high rent. ' Sheriffs sale. $60,000 stock
at less than cost.' And this In a store
that couldn't. hold f 5000 worth of goods.
Upon Investigation .it will ba found that
many of these big affair are only , big
fakes.' .' ..' y-
' "Besides; attempting' to deceive -the
public, this class of advertising Is hurt
ful to the interests ot our city. They
produce a bad -effect on visitors, and
the Portland Ad club can do much to
remedy this condition. I hope it will."
