By JACK V. FOX United Press Correspondent New York U.R) In this breathless age of jets, nuclear force, television, space satellites and Elvis Presley, there has evol ved another phenomenon which bears upon our daily lives more than all the others. It can be called "Madison Ave nue. It is not a place so mucn as a tribe. Its warriors are the ideal people of advertising." They have the subtle but none theless irresistible power to shape our tastes and desires in soaps and vacations, cars and margarines, washing machines and ball point pens. To Spend More This Year Last year America's advertis ers spent just short of $10 billion. That was more than the entire expenses of the Federal govern ment in 1940. This year they will spend more. Manhattan is their magnet; At last count by the trade jour nal Advertising Age there were 19,696 of them in the New York ad agencies. Chicago had 5,861, Detroit less than 2,000. Other cities trailed far behind. The influence they wield in proportion to their numbers is stagering. The can masculinize a fem inine cigarette, popularize in America the Russian national drink, persuade grown men to wear knee length shorts, get peo ple to spend almost as much for fingernail polish as went for cancer research, lengthen autos on streets already jammed, sell shirts by using an eye patch and a soft drink by publicizing a beard. Standards Raised They have raised American living standards to the world's highest, brought down costs through mass sales, played a big role in keeping our economic momentum. The salaries they can make are almost unbelievable. No field but ' show business offers such material rewards for the relative ly young. Probably no field at all has such job insecurity. Their way of life has become a legend, and not always a com plimentary nor accurate one, partly through such best-sellers as "The Hucksters," "Aurora Dawn," "The Man in the Gray Flannel Suit," and "The Ex urbanties." They have the reputation of lunching on martinis (with just a whisper of vermouth), speak ing a strange jargon ('let's run it up the flagpole and see if any o n e salutes"), commuting en masse to Westport, Conn., in a train made up only of bar cars, and man ipulating the public through sex symbols and psycho logical mumbo jumbo. They spend as much as $600, 000 for one TV show (Peter Pan), $40,000 for a single magazine page, $7,000 for one ad in one newspaper, $290,000 for a neon sign in Times Square. . They are not really confined to Madison Avenue, but a rec tangle around' Grand Central Terminal houses most of them It takes in Park, Lexington and Fifth Avenues and the crosstown streets from 42nd to 60th. Frequent Changes Unlike the great corporations they serve, the agencies have virtually no physical assets, "just used furniture and ulcers." Their assets are men and women. The mark of the successful ad man often is not that he held a job for 15 years but 'that he changed six times. For the aver age life of an account with an ad agency is but two and some half years. A survey by the Diner's Club showed that advertising people have the biggest of all expense accounts. They are the ones who must take clients to "My Fair Lady" 11 times while othert buy tickets for next October. Their "watering places" are 21, The Colony, The Stork Club. Yet the 'vast majority of them are hard-working, hard-headed businessmen and women. There are young people making $60 a week, account executives who teach Sunday school, artists who rank high among contemporary painters. One point they do not dispute is that- they do wield an enor mous power over all of us. Bend Voters Approve Issue 1,003 to 60 Bend (U.fi) Tally of a special election vote here Sav urday showed that Bend voters had approved 1003 to 60 a pro posal, to establish the state's first junior college, counting on state financial aid.
