My Dear Mr. Bailey, Thank you for your letter calling attention to the experience of your organization regarding influencing public opinion in matters of consumption. This sounds like an interesting lead. Have you made any sudies in this general area that you could let me see? Was it your organization that put out the Ivory Soap story based on accident reports for bath tub falls? Somebody spoke of this the other day and it struck me as an amusing device. Truly yours, R S Lynd. Photograph of original at the Library of Congress, Washington, D.C.
