Eat Shop Seattle, | General Electric to Launch Local Drive Announcement of a local campaign refrigerators and other products was made Saturday by R. Adamson, 1112 Broadway, supervisor of sales for the company in this area. In line with the campaign, displays of refrigerators have been placed in the basement store of the A. W. Lucas company in Bismarck and in the Cummins company’s basement store at Mandan, Adamson said. Another feature of the campaign 18 the plan to acquaint prospective pur- chasers with the merits of General Electric products through advertising, the company having appropriated $6,500,000 for this purpose in 1931. Most of the advertising will be placed in daily newspapers on the ground that it reaches prospects with @ personal, positive and local mes- sage, Adamson said. In addition, it ties up with national advertising, aids in introducing the salesman, pre- sells the product, creates confidence in the local distributor or dealer and, in addition to these points, it is flex- ible since its message can be changed daily to capitalize local conditions.
