DAILY NEWS SCORED BY THE AMERICAN FOR
PUBLISHING BARNEY BERTSCHE'S STORY

based on the much-advertised Bar
ney Bertsche" articles, has been
launched by Hearst's Chicago Even
ing American. The campaign, as
usual, is through the mails to pro-
fessional men and women.
A letter, signed personally by
Harrison M. Parker, publisher of the
American, raps the News boldly for
bringing the experiences of Barney
Bertsche, crook, to the fireside read
ers of the paper.
A sample Bertsche story, which
tells of purse-snatehing and pick
pocket expeditions taken by the no
torious con man, is quoted by the
American in its letter. An advertise
ment of the Daily News, announcing
the Bertsche series, and editorials
from the American in contrast with
swindling adventures of Bertsche,
are enclosed.
The American admits it is "yel-
low" paper. But it claims that it
would not print stuff as raw as the
Bertsche articles. 1t calls to the at
tention of the reader Of the letter
the moral effect adventures of
crook may have on youthful readers
of the News.
Rivalry between the News and
American, the leading evening pa
pers in circulation and advertising,
is very keen. The News has played
for it's circulation with a bulky, con-
sentative paper which conveys the
impression of printing all the news
and its want ads.
The American poses as flashy, |
up-to-the-minute, metropolitan daily, |
getting there first with the facts. Its |
biggest circulation getters have been |
its sensational stories, called "yeI- |
low," a very simple editorial page |
and the funny pictures.
The Hearst sheet, with full page
of comic service, forced the News to |
follow with a similar page. Now the

Dear Sir-Barney Bertsche, swim
dler of old women, thug, yeggman
and notorious pickpocket, fresh from
his cell in Joliet, with the odor of
prison still upon him, has been add
ed to the STAG of the Chicago Daily

to be yellow journalism, but it isn't.

Chicago could not induce the Amer

as Barney Bertsche to your wife,

''Mr. Hearst's idea of a newspaper
is one that is kindly and helpful

Arthur Brisbane, Ella Wheeler Will

the contributors to the American in
contrast with Barney Bertsche of
Joliet prison.
"The other Chicago newspapers
cannot understand how the Ameri-
can is able in sixteen years to build a
greater newspaper than some of
them have built in seventy-one
years. They seem to think that to
get circulation it is necessary to get
down into the butter with Barney
Bertsche, when, as a matter of fact,
the tone of the American is higher
