TWO GREAT
Press Associations Con-
solidate = Publishers
Press Sells to Scripps-
McRae and Forces
Combine.

New York, July 20.--At special
meeting of the directors of the Pub
lishers' Press association held at the
general offices of the association yes
terday afternoon it was announced
that e. w. Scripps and w. A. Nc
Crae had purchased controlling in
terest in the association. j B. Shale,
president of the Publishers Press an
nounced that he and T. ]. keenan,,
secretary of the association had dis
posed of all their stock which Jointly
gave a control. Messrs. Shale and
Keenan, thereupon rendered their res
ignations as officers and directors. M.
A. 'McRae, ]. G. Harper and John
Vandercook were elected directors to
fill the vacancies in the board and the
board then unanimously elected M A.
McRae president and John Wander
cook secretary and general manager.
Andrew Mclean was retained as vice
president and treasurer.
Mr.. McRae explained the relations,
practically amounting to partner,
ship, hithertoo existing between the
Publishers Press association and the
Scripps-McRae Press association un-
der which the latter had contributed
largely to the upbuilding Of the Pun.
lishers Press. Since the Original
contract was made between the two
associations, however. both Mr.. Shale
and Mr.. Keenan, had sold their news
paper properties and now had other
very important outside interests. On
the other hands the Scripps-McRae
concern was more largely engaged
| than ever in publishing newspapers
and 1t was solely to secure the best
possible news report for themselves
and all papers associated with them
that they had now extended their
press association interests. He con-
cluded by stating that the Publishers
Press would continue to be conducted
along the lines which has already
been successful with such improve
ments as could, from time to time be
made.
They are now operated as separate
companies but under the same control
the Publishers Press association with
BOT clients. the Srcipps-McRae Press
ASSOCIATION with 154 clients and the
Scripps news of the Pacific coast with
| so clients, in all 521 associated news
papers, comprise, outside of the Asso-
ciated Press, the only great press as
sociation in the United States.

A. B. Watson Will Ask Committee
to Reconsider Penalizing of Motorists

3 The festivities at Del Monte enjoyed
by the members of the Automobile Club
of California were brought to a close
yesterday by run over the seventeen
mile drive. Many of the owners started
early. went over the drive, and then
continued on home. Quite a number
took the route that leads through Wat
sonville and over to Santa Cruz. At
the latter place a stop was made for
luncheon. The late starters took the
route over the San Juan grade coming
up from San Jose by the Oakland side
of the bay. 1t was an ideal day. The
horizon was clear as far as the eve
could see. From the top of San Juan
Hill view of the ocean and the full
length of the Salinas Valley was pos
sible. 1t was just warm enough to
make riding perfect. Those who came
back by way of San Jose took luncheon
at that place.
The roads on the Oakland side of the
bay are in the finest condition they
have been in for months. There was
in fact, no place where the drivers were
forced to slow down.
The outing at Del Monte was marred
by one unpleasantness. It was the
penalizing of E. P. Brinegar's Winton.
