More human appeal ‘is being put into advertising,” he said. “Cre- ative advertising writers are plac- ing more emphasis on the rela- tionship of products and 'services to the lives of users. Being Improved “Advertising is an inseparable part of our method of distribution. In no other way could produects and services be made available to millions at so low a eost.
