General Information
  1. Publisher's copy protective clause: Advertisers and their agencies assume liability for all content of advertisements printed and assume responsibility for any claims which may arise from advertising. The publisher reserves the right to reject any advertising. The publisher is not liable for errors in key numbers or Advertisers' Index.
  2. Publisher may mark as advertising any advertisement that resembles editorial matter.
  3. Short rates and rebates: Advertisers that do not use within a year's period the amount of space on which their billing rate is based will be short-rated. Advertisers that within a year's period use enough additional space to earn a rate lower than their billing rate will be rebated.
  4. Rate protective clause: Should rate changes be required, notification will be given advertisers. Those who wish to cancel contracts when the new rates become effective will not be short-rated provided the contract rate is being earned at the time of cancellation.
