1939 A lift from Liberty

"Seeking publicity for A.A., Charles Towns recounts its history to writer Morris Markey, who will submit the article "Alcoholics and God" (a title with which Bill isn't comfortable) to Fulton Oursler, editor of the popular weekly Liberty. After the article's publication on September 30, 1939, sales of the Big Book increase by several hundred and the Newark office receives 800 pleas for help from alcoholics and their loved ones."
