All advertisements that are offered to The Herald are scruti- nized closely by its Censorship Department and where there is any question as to the legitimacy of the offer or the starding of the advertiser, they are immediately return- ed to the sender. The Classified Section of a newspaper requires more censorship than possibly any other part, as it is a place where, unless rigid precautions are taken, fake get-rich-yuick schemes and fraudulent home work schames are effectively promoted. In addition to its own censorship meas- ures, The Herald cooperates with the Naton- al Better Business Bureau in the operaton of its classified service to newspaper clasi- fied advertising managers. This servie assists The Herald and 705 other newspape-s throughout the country to weed out misleac- ing or fraudulent copy that might inadvert. ently filter into their columns and subse- quently result in loss or dissatisfaction to veaders. Through information bulletin re- ports issued by the Bureau each week, we We would be glad to have you, the you and yours.

Some idea of the comprehensive investi- gating facilities of the National Bureau and its forty-two local Better Business Bureaus in principal cities of the country is indicated by the fact that 2,359 inquiries from news- papers and the public had been answered since the service started two years ago, 758 bulletin reports have been sent to newspa- pers as a result of 1,608 investigations of misleading or fraudulent classified adver- tising. The Classified Department of The Herald is continually guarding the classified columns to keep them free from questionable adver- tising. It requires that all copy submitted to it be responsible, accurate and clear and that the merchandise or the proposition ad- vertised be specifically defined for the pro- tecg]ipn of its legitimate advertisers and the public.
