MERICAN NEWSPAPERS are gratelul lor this tribute from one of tha country's leading
advertising agencies. And they ore keenly aware of their added responsibilities in these days of
unprecedented world crisis. News has always been a precious commodity. But never has
it been so precious, so necessary, so much in demand as it is today. And never before have
American newspapers striven so diligently to supply that demand. ft is this dependence of
the American public on the doily press . . . this 'dispensability of the newspaper to the individual,
the community, and the nation . . . ffiof makes newspaper space the smartest advertising invest'
ment for today and for the peacetime years to come.
