chuukyuu What do you think about the future of the advertising business?
Mr.Meadow The most difficult question. The advertising business will continue to expand as American business expands. I see no reason for the dimunition of either in the immediate future. As far as techniques are concerned, I am sure that they will change. I am sufficiently old that I go back into my own youth and remember what we were doing in advertising before the World War II and how it seemed then filled with advertising slogans and promises and exaggerations and overstatements and how these techniques seemed to be part and parcel of the business. And yet shortly after the World WAR II Bernbach and David Ogilvy came along and demonstrated that you could turn the whole business upside down and given a fresh new start. I dare say that in the forese of future, a new Bernbach or a new Ogilvy will do the same to current scene.
