Leaders said they tell sure of

for cloture could not be secured was

of the petition. Several democrats
were Mid to favor cloture, hut the
party a a whole was expected to

The roll call on the cloture move,
republican leaders said, would at
least deniouttrate a desire on the
part of the majority to bring the bill
to an early tote.
If substantial progress, was not
made on the bill, they were prepaied
to lay it aside and make a vigorous
fight for the proposed new cloture
rule, recommended recently by two
republican conferences, to invoke
cloture by majority instead of a two
thirds vote.

Money Ever "Spent"
for Advertising?
A young and energetic executive
took hold of a fine old retail business
iri New York.
"What this business needs," he
told himself, "is a place in the mind
of the public."
And deliberately he set out to sac
rifice the greater volume of his prof
its and invest the sacrifice into the
building of goodwill.
He did. And to this old business,
advertising was the breath of life.
For six months had not passed be

the advertising cost was a smaller,
percentage than ever it had been and,
because of a larger volume, the shop
effected economies and gave far
superior service.
That was five years ago. Today a
certain percentage is spent, or sup
posed to be spent, for advertising.
But as fast as the appropriation
is spent, the more the business in
creases; and the more that the busi

centage becomes.
