Chicago did more than its art in oversubscribing the Liberty Loan. It originated a plan of advcrtisng for the Liberty Loan which helped the government when It could not help itself because Congress i did not make an advertising appropria- ; tion to advertise in , newspapers p.n ! Great Britain - and Cnnada did. The same plan will be used generally in the Red Cross campaign next week. William H. Rankin, vice chairman of the national advertising advisory board, received the following telegram from R. W. Wool ley. director of publicity for the Liberty Loan. Washington, D. C: "Much of the credit for magnificent victory of Liberty Loan due to you and national advertising advisory board of Associated Advertisers. Thanks and heartiest congratulations." Plaa to Wake Up Chicago. When James Simpson of Marshall Field & Co. selected Mr. Rankin as general chairman for the Red Cross membership campaign, he told him he wanted 250.000 Red Cross members In four weeks. With only 300.000 members in the entire United States this looked like a big job. Mr. Rankin knew ha had the right product to sell and with the Association of Commerce and the citizens committee to do the work the next problem was to "wake up" Chicago. There was no advertising appropriation and it was decided that thirtyfive full pages, five each in the seven English newspapers and a total of tn pages in the foreign languages, would certainly "wake up" Chicago. But who was to pay for the advertising? The business men of Chicago? Mr. Rankin outlined a sales plan and as a result forty-five Chicago business men bought pages, first as a good advertisment for their houses; second, as a good advertisement for Chicago, and third, the Red Cross got the benefit. J. W. Champion of the Chicago Red Cross chapter was enthusiastic over the succers cf the plan. In St. Louis Mr. Rankin was called upon to tdl the story of the Chicago plan of newspaper advertising to the convention of the Associated Advertising Clubs of the World. The result was that the delegates pledged themselves to go back home and use .the Chicago plan to advertise Liberty Loan and the Red Cross. Herbert S. Houton. chairman of the national advertising board, telegraphed today that fifty-one pages have been pledged to the Red Cross campaign in Xew York. The national advertising advisory board, when its recommendation for paid advertising for the Liberty Loan was turned down because of lack of funds, seized the Chicago Red Cross plan of newspaper advertising, based on the Idea that It reflects greater credit and is better edvertising for the business houses to show their patriotism and use their standing to promote either Red Cross or Liberty Bonds than to devote all the page to advertising their own product. The Red Cross this week will show an advertising record of results just as good as has been shown through the paid Liberty Loan newspaper campaign.
