A NON-PERISHABLE ASSET FOR MERCHANTS Stanley Harold Morgan is a Chicago investment consultant who in recent years has done 'some major studies on advertising, its uses and its results. This is what he recently told the Industrial Advertising As.lod- ation in New York: • "Money wisely spent for adver- tising is as important an invest- ment as money spent. for machinery. "An- advertising investment in, goodwill stay prove more important than physical assets and is so re- garded by most investment bankers. Physical assets can be destroyed. But goodwill created by advertising and service can be rnaintained by advertising even' in the face of ealnntity. "Hard-hitting advertising, inereh- andising and sales promotion give aipkaay't; detertninntion not only to - preserve its position in its industry 11111 to i'mnrove it. This view is teidely 'held among investors, eomtnerci.a1 bankers and investment leapkers. "In the investment market. well advertised companies enjoy definite advantages over their less-affver- tised conmetitors. "Their securities are more readily acceptable. command a higher price, and Usually .,,.a -re more stable. Ad- verti`sing helps ,increase their capital vaInc."
