Synopsis
Excerpt from Committee of Public Safety: For the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania
The department also has assisted in the issuance of posters and other literature and devised a method of securing their prominent and widespread display. By way of illustration, posters aimed to speed up the planting of non-perishable crops were, through the department's efforts, strategically placed in 2000 country general stores throughout the State as well as in roadside hostelries, creameries and other places frequented by farmers.
A volunteer posting service, including thousands of drug stores and other high - class business houses all over the State, was established and has been used effectively for window posting displays. Co-operation of these stores is assured so long as the committee requires their assistance. Regular bill posting service has, of course, been added to the volunteer window service when necessary.
The department is in contact with the publicity work of other State committees. To its duties of keeping the public fully informed through the newspapers it has added the duty of keeping the directing heads and State-wide sub-divisions of the committee fully cognizant of general activities.
