WADE President, Mercantile Trust Company of St. Louis Wiien we Strike at advertising, meaning, of course, efficiently applied advertising, we strike at salesmanship, and the heart of business. For the banker to do anything to l’etard business light’ now is suicide. ‘ When the merchant pulls down his shingle and waits for busi ness to come to him in a buyers’ market, we laugh at him, and call him a poor business man. t • fa*) i r *o When he is forced to cut down one of his best methods of sell ing because his bankeT considers advertising an unnecess item of expense and refuses an otherwise deserved loan purelj that principle, it is, my humble opinion that we should laujT the banker, and feel sorry for the merchant. Don’t mistake my meaning. It is a basic banking principle that a loan must be well secured, and a firm cannot borrow merely because it is a big and successful advertiser. But the fact that It is a believer in advertising and wants to use a por tion of the money for that purpose should never stand in its wa# when it calls on the Bank’s credit department.
