SAYS PAPERS SEEK TRUTH
Ralph Pulitzer Tells Students Of
Importance of Accuracy.

Ralph Pulitzer, son of the late Joseph
Pulitzer, who endowed the School of
Journalism at Columbia University. gave
lecture on Accuracy in Journalism
before the students yesterday. He spoke
Of the keen desire for accuracy that
prompted his ia Their in all his newspaper
writings and OF the ABSOLUTE neces-
sitv for strict adherence to the
truth. DR.. Talcott Williams, director OF
the school, introduced Mr.. Pulitzer. and
said that because OF the death OF Ambds-
sador Whitelaw Reid the usual social
hour after the lecture would not be held.
The newspaper" he said, rs manu-
featured out OF the subtest. most VIOLA
world-the truth" He showed the difficult
ties with which every newspaper has to
contend In getting. writing printing and
distributing It's facts. resulting often in
unfortunate but innocent inaccuracies. in
order that he might point out and criti-
else more severely those other inaccura-
cies in some papers which are not inno-
cent. but vicious. deliberate fakes.
lie illustrated his argument with
taxes, nlSlOllt anu llOutiht II SiH NV
moon-hoax to a lurid Titanic extra, and
showed wherein even the humorous and
harmless" fake injured and ruined re-
porters and Slapped the character and
reputation OF newspaper lie continued:
There are papers which cynically avow
their motto 10 be: Facts merely embar-
rass u.s. but you can pretty we'll count
all'o them in this country on the myers
OF your two hands. They are eVanescent.
Any institution that iourishes on an APP
peal TO morbdness by the aid Of men-
dacity can have but a precarious hold
on prosperity or even on life itself.
/ don't think any one who knows MS
newspaper history will question the fact
that striving for accuracy is steadily
growing keener and more widespread.
For every 81 that responsible paper
spends on originally getting a piece OF
news il spends 81 on verifying IT, And
think | can safely assert that In any
important story. where the facts are all
available. from a national convention TO
a murder trial or football game, the
are extraordinarily accurate.

TWO SAVED BY RED CROSS
Father and Daughter Have a
Happy Reunion.

There was q reunion yesterday In an
East Side home. when little Mary and her
father kissed each other for the first time
I'm over a year, and you should have heard
the way in which they spoke Of the Red
Cross seals" said Frank II. Mann In tell
ing the story.
About "A year ago little Mary's father
had to quit work and the doctor at the
clinic where he had gone told him that he
had tuberculosis. With the assistance OF
the visiting nurses at the clinic, the
father was finally sent 10 Otisvllle Sana-
torium Little Mary. nine years old was
taken by the nurse 70 the clinic and was
there examined. While no definite traces
of tuberculosis could be found she was
thin, puny. undcrfed, understood and evil
IDENTIFY a 1T subject for the disease.
THE CHEEKY visiting nurse cleaned up
the home with the aid Of the mother, and
told little Mary that she would have to
give up her ordinary school work and go
10 one OF the fresh air classes In differ
ent school Soon she grew stronger, and
she felt more like playing and laughing
and singing when she came home.
Yesterday, when the father returned
10 his home, his wife hardly recognized
him. and he hardly knew little Mary. The
father had gained thirty pounds. and little
Mary had gained twelve pounds. Now
both were robust and healthy looking and
both seemed so happy
1.-The nurse told me- said Mary, that
jr Red Cross seals had not been sold,
would not have had chance TO go TO
the fresh air class And probably
would not have had chance 10 go TO the
sanatorium and 10 have had the good
kindly assistance Of the nurses and doc
tors said the father. In commenting on
the situation.

A RECITAL OF SONGS
French Defamation and No
Melody.

Miss Maggie Teyte. of whom everybody
ever since she has been known here, re-
sardless Of the twist which she has
thought it necessary to give her name In
order that it might appear ineligible to
the French eye, gave a song recital in
Aeolian Hall yesterday afternoon. She
was, uahappily. in sufficient trepidation
about her vocal condition TO ask the in
diligence OF the audience after the pro-
gramme was two-thrds over. PERHAPS
the apology would have not been neces-
sary had she tried more to sing and less
TO declaim in the group of songs which
Immediately preceded her apology. They
were group Of French poems 10y Yer
laine, which would. IT is easy to fancy
have conveyed their proclamation better
had they been reclted without regard to
the musical notes which Debussy affixed
10 their words
vast deal has been written about the
potency of music in heightening the effect
Of poetry. but unless poetry can be raised
TO a higher power by the aid of melody in
combination with expressive harmony 1t
would better be left alone by musicians
What Schumann accomplished in one
phrase Of his "Nussbaum" Is not ap-
preached by Debussy i'm all Of his
"Ariettes Ou5liees." Schumann made the
whole song musically eloquent with his
instrumental interude between the lines !;
Debussy tried to raise the power OF
tle words by an harmonic substratum
which they did not need. Yet such
songs as Schumanns and the monody
which preceded the invention of the ltal-
ian opera are the unmistakable proto-
types OF the songs Cmelodies" they are
called, 10 the bewilderment OF many peo-
ple) which Debussy and his colleagues
have written.
Miss Teyte also sang number OF songs
by American composers, native and I'M
