From The Indianapolis Star, Friday, February 19, 1926: At a dinner held last night under the auspices of the Indianapolis Chamber of Commerce, 500 businessmen and women enthusiastically endorsed ad man Homer McKee’s plan for a Million Population Club, an all-embracing effort of citizens to push the city forward. In a speech that was frequently interrupted with applause, McKee emphasized the need for a concrete selling plan that will interest outside manufacturers to locate in the city through an intensive national advertising campaign to acquaint the country with the opportunities and advantages existing here. He stressed that Indianapolis is an unsold town and the source of all municipal success is industry and that money, science, art and welfare follow industry. Population follows industry and this plan will make for better schools, churches, and a more judicious use of taxpayer money.
