HARDEST BUSIEST CHEAPEST WORKERS IN TOWN PLAINDEALER WANT ADS HOME TOWN PAPER STILL NO. 1 MEDIA FOR ADVERTISING ^ "It is our conviction that month in and mohth out, year in and year out, the hometown newspaper still stands today as the basic No. 1 media for our dealers' advertising." This was the view expressed by W. D. (Pete) Moore, advertising manager of Dodge division, Chrysler corporation, in a talk on "Eight Cylinder Advertising -- Hometown, U.S.A." at the National Editorial association mid-winter meeting in Chandler, Ariz. k "It is for this reason," Moore Added, "that we will in a normal month use 1,500 dailies and 2,900 weeklies and from an expenditure standpoint will spend more of our coop funds, in newspapers than all other media combined." Advertising, the speaker said, still is one of the greatest forces in our way of life, and without it the automotive industry could not exist, at least not in its present form -- "without it, neither could the publication you represent." According to Moore, the job of advertising automobiles is much like advertising any 'product in this great land of ours. Moore told his audience that, "Hometown advertising, to me, is vitally important. I come from a small town myself, and my brother- in-law is a hometown newspaper publisher. So I know something of the people who. make up the typical hometown community. "Sure, we, like every big corporation, may spend as much as 60 percent of the advertising dollar in the metropolitan areas. •»|*&fter all, that is where the greatest population, the greatest number of customers, resides. "But what about the father forty per cent? It's sUp«Snt in hometown areas, where the other forty per cent of the people live.

"Without that forty per cent of sales potential, we'd be out of business.-" -- Jn his talk, A$oore also discussed- the matter of publicity, and said that they, in common With all automotive companies, maintain -a news bureau whose duty it is to supply "what we fondly hope is legitimate news material -- off interest to readers everywhere." He said that while their editors cannot always localize a story for each of 10,000 papers, they do try to provide material that will interest people everywhere and with a minimum of product mention. "Yet," he said, "we. get letters from irate publishers every now and then saying: 'If my paper is a good publicity medium, then it's also a good advertising medium. How about an ad ' "The same editor would resent it and justly so if we replied: 'We'll advertise in your paper if you'll print our publicity.' We admire and respect the American editor and we expect him to use his own judgment in deciding what is news for his particular territory. The news material we send out is a supplementary service, with the editor free to use it if he sees fit, or 'give it the pitch' is he does not. We wouldn't have it any other way."
