Hal R. Taylor Collection, Proceedings of the 1952 convention of the American Society of Newspaper Editors, Des Moines, Iowa., Excerpts from this report.
Via ProQuest Historical Newspapers. 1 page., American Newspaper Publishers Association protests efforts by government agencies, including the U.S. Department of Agriculture, to control advertising content inappropriately. Article cites an example: "A 1933 order by the animal industry bureau of the Agriculture Department deleting from Jones's dairy farm advertising a jingle, 'Most little pigs to to market, The best little pigs go to Jones's,' on the grounds that it was misleading."
Via ProQuest Historical Newspapers. 1 page., U.S. Court of Appeals ordered the Midwest Farm Paper Unit, Inc., to pay $37,000 in damages for having acquired a substantial monopoly of the advertising in that type of publication, and that competition was destroyed.
