QUESTION: 1$ The OmaKa Bee a member of the '. B. C.
ANSWER : The Omaha Bee has been a member of the A. B. C.
since April, 1914, just a few months after the
organization of the A. B. C.
As a newspaper strongly desirous of dealing
) fairly with its advertisers, The Omaha Bee
saw a strong reason for joining this organiza
tion eight years ago. The Audit Bureau of
Circulations has grown in its scope and useful
ness since then, and The Bee as a consequence
has gained an enduring prestige as a news
' paper that through a long period of years has
given its advertisers an honest "measure" in
circulation.
