I did a search for this comic and results came back with only the Atlas/Marvel title.
A search on Canada showed the title from a Canadian company.
However, my copy indicia says published by Western Fiction Publishing Co, Inc. with an address in New York City as office of publication.

and the question is? After researching on comics.org, it seems there's a couple issue #37's, with different stories/covers no less. One by Atlas/Marvel published in 1950, another in 1955, both by Western Fiction Publishing Co, and another is from a Canadian Publisher, Bell Features, from Jan 1951 and is a reprint of the 1950 American issue, but they state "Unknown if interior is a reprint of the same American issue as the cover is."

so you need a pic or story title to tell us which one you have.
This is the Atlas/Marvel one CPG has for #37 from 1955 (The Man Who Didn't Exist):



CPG doesn't list the Bell Features #36 or 37 for some reason, but comics.org does, this is the #37 reprint from 1950 ('When World's Collide') :

Same cover as the 1950 one from Atlas/Western Fiction, that CPG doesn't even acknowledge:
https://www.comics.org/issue/203009/#389025

So two different cover/stories from different years, and 1 reprint. IF comics.org is correct, and after this many years I'd expect them to have it right by now. So it appears CPG is missing #37 and 38 of the 1950 issues from Atlas. https://www.comics.org/series/735/
