Show BROWNING ss ARMS ST. LOUIS, COMPANY MO. December Sth, 1931. Mr. E. G Bennett, First Security Corporation, Ogden, Utah, Dear Mr. Bennetts: in which you end end also This will acknowledge yours of December 2nd enclosed copy of your letter to Val of December copy of letter from Mr. Woodson of November 27th, The thought oceurs to me that if we were to discuss this possible development, particularly with Mr.Walter of Sears, Roebuck and Company, the information would leak back to certain sources with the possible result that increased interest may develop in pending arrangements. You have, perhaps, already thought of this idea. Our experience shows that February is the best inquiry producing month from advertising, of the entire year. The closing dates of the best publications for us are around the 15th to 18th of this month, February advertising was provided for in our restricted effort for next year and as outlined in the suggested budget. As I recall, however, we discussed this situation when you were here, With best regards, Sincerely, |
