The Quota One of the lessons of the war was the use of the quota. Had you thought of any other method that would have raised the millions of men and 'the billions of dollars or saved the wheat, the sugar or the tin foil? Suppose you planned any national movement that required individual acquiescence or support how could you proceed without the quota systein? T ,And as an individual, how can you gage your opportunities or your duties against any national scheme without the quota? In mapping out an advertising campaign, a basic quota system will predetermine future poli cies and expenditures on the one plan that not only avoids waste but stimulates healthy competition.
