AMERICA LIKELY TO FURNISH BALANCE OF POWER IN WAR The offensive action launched by the arm ed forces of the United States in various parts of the world during the last few weeks indi cates that this country is again to furnish the balance of power that will win the war. In world war no. 1 the allies were hard pressed by the Germans when American power bean to be felt. Some contend that the United States won the war. Even if it did not, it pro vided the balance of power that crushed the Germans, although the American force was comparatively small. More equipment and more men are going to be needed to defeat the three axis powers than was required to defeat Germany and her allies last time, but the United States and Bri tain are fighting and producing on a much larger scale, so the proportion is about the same. Reports indicate that most every Ameri can expects the united nations to win the war, but despite the prospect of the United States furnishing the balance of power the task of defeating the dictators is going to require tre mendous effort. The definite American offensive against Japan in the Solomon islands and offensive forays in western Europe and northern Africa give Americans hope that the time is not far distant when the American balance of power will be felt. When it is felt sufficiently Ger many and her two satellites will crumble. AUSTRALIANS BELIEVE ADVERTISING IS NEEDED (From Domestic Commerce) The country “down under”, even when faced by an invasion of hostile troops, not only believes that advertising should not diminish but believes that it is the fundamental con cept of a sound business policy. In an article published by Commercial Broadcasting, of Sydney, Australia, Frank Gold berg states that if a name is worth anything it is worth keeping. It is obvious, Mr. Goldberg points out, that if, during the time a sellers’ market is operating, a firm allows its customers to forget it or make new connections during the emergency—if it fails to keep the machinery of its normal out lets oiled and in good workiing order—if it fails to lay the groundwork for the new compe tition, which will undoubtedly be keener—If it allows these things to happen, then it is ob vious that the onset of a buyers’ market will put that firm in a disastrous position from which it may find it impossible to extricate it self. Business managers and executives who re alize that the need for maintaining favorable customer relationship is basic and fundamental will take steps to strengthen them now—so that they may withstand the stresses. These business managers will make cer tain that their customers are fully informed of their intentions, policies, and procedures, and of the uncontrollable circumstances that re strict or delay the delivery of goods. They will confide in their customers — frankly, fully, and frequently—and, meanwhile, remind them of the merits and possibilities of the products that are temporarily unavilable. Logic suggests, as in any other form of insurance, and history proves, as in countless cases during the last war, that normal advertis ing schedules should not only be maintained, but actually exceeded, in an emergency period. The importance of advertising on a sellers’ mar ket is sueh that even the employment of capital funds may be justified. Advertising insures your trade name, good will, and product against the time when normal business conditions return. Advertising keeps your name and product before a large number of people, while the present oversold market is due to large orders from a small number of customers. The fame of the biggest name is fleeting. The public’s memory is short—and you will need the public when conditions change. Crop Insurance Program Shown insured farmer.
