CHICAGO The Auto Club Group, a consortium of six American Automobile Associations in the Midwest, is in negotiations with WPP Group’s JWT about taking over its estimated $15 million advertising account, according to a client representative.

The client’s previous agency, Interpublic Group’s Foote Cone & Belding, resigned the business owing to a potential conflict arising from its pending merger with sister shop Draft.

A Draft representative confirmed the shop had resigned the account, but would not disclose the conflict, which is believed to be State Farm Insurance.
