The committee is heartily in favor of endorsing a general “buying-at-home” campaign, which campaign would be of benefit to all Minot concerns. To that end this committee decided that they would sponsor and conduct a general “buy-at-home” advertising campaign in the following manner: The Town Criers will be asked to furnish copy for a series of advertisements, advocating this principle, to be inserted in local newspapers. The copy is to be first approved by this committee and this same committee is to attend to the securing of space in the various newspapers and to conduct the campaign in general.
