2. To subscribe to and work for truth, honesty and accuracy in all departments.
3. To avoid confusing duplication of listings, endeavoring to classify every concern under such headings as best describe it, and to treat additional listings as advertising, to be charged for at regular rates.
4. To increase public knowledge of what Directories and reference media contain; to study public needs and make Directories and reference media to supply them; to revise and standardize methods and classifications so that what is wanted may be most easily found, and the Directory and reference media be made to serve their fullest use as business and social reference books and Di- rectories of buyer to seller and seller to his market.
5. To decline any advertisement which has a tendency to mislead or which does not conform to business integrity.

8. To co-operate with approved organizations and individuals engaged in creative advertising work.
9. To avoid unfair competition.
10. To determine what is the highest and largest function of Directories and reference media in public service and then to strive in every legitimate way to promote that function.
