Advertising Roundup Zi l, r is ADDISOM By D ELBERT ADDISOfT LrFESAVING course, business style: Children, for years, have cried for Cas toria. It was discovered on May 4 that chil dren cried FROM Castona. By 7:30 that evening the manufacturer, . The Centaur Co, and the advertising agency, Young and Rubicam, had ready for release a warn ing to the country to discon tinue its use, . ' The national radio networks were unable to provide time for Castor ia that evening, but most all news programs car ried the announcement as a matter of public service. Telegrams went to all daily papers In the country at 7:30 that evening, and the next day the Castoria story was told in newspaper ads. ' Castorio's Own Story in Papers (T IS interesting to note that daily newspapers in this emergency provided the speediest medium for Castoria to tell its own story in 'it own words. By the time The Herald and News hit the afreet, the story was rife that a foreign agent On the sense of a fifth columnist) had put something in Castoria which made babies sick. The Castoria ad stated, "... it has been discovered that all such Fletchers Castoria which has been shipped since March 1st, 1943, contains a foreign INGREDIENT which causes nausea and vomiting." It also is interesting that the newspaper ads carried Castoria's story In it OWN words, in such a way that it could not be misinterpreted. Paradoxically, June magazines still carried the pre-foreign ingredient advertising, while not a bottle of Castoria was for sale in the country. Magazines have to be printed so far ahead of actual release that, while Castoria cancellations went out the first week In May, a few July Issues still carried the ads. Castoria story was completed on June 28. when all dailv nanent rarruvl a uvml a a, -What Happened to Fletchers Castoria." This ad answered the questions: What caused the trouble? Why didn't normal tests show that something was wrong? What are the makers doing to prevent a recurrence of the trouble? is rietcners castoria now on sale? Will the package be the same? (The new, safe Castoria will bear a distinctive green haruLi If Castoria had not made full use of our advertising facilities in a prompt, TRUTHFUL manner, it might well have been the business death of this old established product. (This is where the "lifesaving" comes In, in case you've been wondering. It was not meant here that the foreign ingredient made a death dealing potion. A chemical change In water used, combined with reduced sugar content, actually caused the trouble.) It certainly is to the credit of the company, however, that by their prompt action, the actual cases of nausea were held to around 100. The point is, Castoria was confronted with a mishap, which immediately destrovxri th m.Mir. confidence which had been built up from years ana years oi honest merchandising. By truthfully telling the story over the Castoria signature, in paid advertising, this confidence was restoredperhaps strengthened. A person always has confidence in someone who has the guts to come clean on his failures. There'll Come a Day COMING clean on newspaper performance, In this case, it might be added that a few morning papers were not able to get the ad in until a day later, May 6. Full text and instructions were telegraphed to each daily paper in the country in the case of this first Castoria ad. Then each ad was set up in type by each Individual paper. In speeding up and simplifying the use of newspapers for advertising, it is not hard to visualize improvements for the postwar era. It is well within the realm of probability that the advertising agency would prepare a master copy of an ad, employing full use of illustration and artwork, which in turn would be beamed by radio to automatic machines in individual newspaper plants which would im mediately reproduce the ad for actual printing.
