Men of Affairs ---


Safeguard their Estates by appointing a responsible Trust Company to act as Executor or Trustee. There is no reason why smaller estates should not be similarly pro- tected. They are in greater need of it-can less afford to incur risk. Any man with property to bequeath to his heirs should take this means of safeguarding them against unwise investment and also avoiding the uncertainties of individual trusteeship due to possible death, sickness or absence. A personal call or correspondence invited.

STRENGTH


-- the cornerstone of a successful bank


An institution that has, for forty-one years, weath- ered every business depression, every financial flurry, every unforeseen incident-that has adhered rigidly to the policy of far-sighted conservatism initiated by its founder-can well be expected to continue to uphold right practices, to adapt itself to changing conditions, to enlarge its sphere of usefulness to its patrons.

What is the BETTER BUSINESS BUREAU?


BETTER BUSINESS


INDIANAPOLIS


BU


The Better Business Bureau of Indianapolis, with a long- established good name and record of service to business and the public, is:


-One of fifty-two similar co-operating (but legally independent ) organizations, located in larger cities throughout the United States and Canada.


-An Indianapolis Institution, maintained by legiti- mate business to protect confidence in advertising and selling, and to combat, by all lawful means, the sale of fake or fraudulent securities.


-A non-profit, semi-public corporation, organized under the laws of Indiana and paying no dividends.


-Supervised by a Board of Directors of twenty-one prominent Indianapolis business men who meet regularly and serve without any compensation -whatsoever.


The appearance of this Public


Service Message in these columns is evidence that this publication subscribes whole- heartedly to the principles of the Better Business Bureau, and co-operates with the Bu- reau in protecting you-even to the extent of refusing to accept the advertising of firms whose advertising and sales policies are proved to be contrary to public interest.


-Staffed by experienced executives, with no other business connections, and working in close and harmonious co-operation with the public authori- ties.


-The recognized source of fact-information-free of all cost to the general public.


-Non-partisan, non-sectarian, non-political.


-An organization with a membership roster of ap- proximately 400 Indianapolis institutions. Finan- cial statement and record of activity open to any proper inquiry.


-Subject to no "influence" and plays no favorites.


-The established and trusted Umpire of decent busi- ness and the public alike.


Target of those who fear it, "indicted" by those whose past records have been made known, "attacked" by per- sons or organizations, with plausible titles, it rests on its record-in and for Indianapolis.


The BETTER BUSINESS BUREAU, Inc.


T. M. OVERLEY Manager


711 Majestic Building LIncoln 6446


INDIANAPOLIS


This organization is supported by reputable business institutions and operates without profit to promote publie confidence and business integrity in advertising. selling and in . vestments. Our service is offered without charge-we have nothing to sell.
