hucksters and put them under

vision sets, hospitals, universities and jobs . . . above
all, jobs !
The best way to create more jobs, is to make more,
grow more and to persuade people to consume what
you make or grow.
Advertising does all that and more. It is an essential
part of our economy and it is highly probable that
our mass production industries cannot exist without it.
You may not like some aspects of advertising but we
have to face one simple fact. So far man s ingenuity
has not been able to devise a better way of bringing
together ... for their mutual benefit ... the producer
of goods and the potential consumer.
