One-Price Principle Urged by Advertising Leaders
Collin Armstrong, national chairman of the advertising committee, urged a one-price principle for newspaper ads at the seventeenth annual Associated Advertising Clubs of the World convention in Atlanta. He argued pricing should be stable and fair, decrying practices that favor some advertisers and noting that many see a shift toward uniform rates as economically sound and ethical. He warned deviations in price create buyer doubt and pledged progress toward a common, honest standard.
