U. P. Advertising Bureau
Loses Commodious Quarters
With the government in control of
opera. ion, advertising departments of
the railroads have become of second
ary interest. The advertising end of
the rall.or ' once was looked upon as
important factor as a cusiness-
an
getter. Now advertising has been
practically all eliminated by crder of
the government officials.
The Union Pacific advertising de
partment heretofore has occupied ex
tensive quarters en .the main floor of
tho headquarters building, but it is
not to do so in the future. From now
on what is left of the advertising de
partment will be c-3wded nto a room
on the third floor of the building,
sharing quarters with the clipping
bureau. Frank Roach will continue
in charge, but his office force will be
cut t one o. two clerks.
The rooms now occupied by .ie ad
vertising department will be turned
over to the railroad express company.
