ASSOCIATED PRESS ASSN
SUES INTERNATIONAL News

New York, Jan. Charging that
the International News Service was
underselling il ON news OF the Euro

brought suit against the international
News Service and has obtained from
Federal Judge Hand an order 10 show
cause why the International News
Service should not he enioined from
rndersellins news gathered by the As
sociated Press in Europe The order
is returnable in the United States dis
trict court here January 10
Fred ]. Wilson, general manager Of
the International News Service Tues
day issued the following statement in
connection with the motion of the As
soCiated Press:
This is Just another chapter in the
long ana unsuccessful attempts Of the
Associated Press 20 destroy its chief
rival ana to faston the monopoly of
news on the reading public Of the
country.
We shall fight this latest attempt
as we have fought tine others. It viii
indeed be a sad day for The country
when il is brought under the thraldom
Of this despotic control.
THE main grievance Of the Asso-
ciated Press seems To be that the In.
ternalional News Service uses news
gathered from early publications Of
Associated Press dispatches. Every
man knows that every
press service uses news in that way
ana has the right TO do so. If that is .

R|N NCES INDIA PROVE THEIR
 LOYALTY
(By Associated Press)

DELHI, India. Feb. 8. This an cient city, which for centuries has played such an important part in the annals of India, has again been the scene of history making event.
 Forty powerful Indian princes and chiefs, rulers over great territories and representing untold wealth and influence, have been meeting here in conference, at the invitation of the viceroy, to consider questions of gen. eral importance to their states and people, and to render advice requested
 by the British government on certain l matters. Thus a notable precedent has been established, for while two small conferences have been held previously for the discussion of prob lems relating to the higher colleges for the education of chiefs sons,
 never before have general subjects affecting the native states as a whole come up for debate.
 ipot" piihtCo DlltlSH bi1ltjulS, with many of whom a correspondent of the Associated Press had talked, , attach great significance to this con- ference, which bids fair to become fixed annual event. Heretofore the princes have maintained that their sovereign dignity precluded their dis cussing the affairs of their states with other rulers.
 One possibility that is being widely discussed, although with considerable reserve at the moment, is that these | annual conferences may ultimately
 develop into a council which will have voice in the government of the empire as whole. Just hint of this was contained in the address of wei come delivered by the viceroy at the opening of the sessions.
 Tt may be said" said Lord Chelms- ford, that in time to come a constitu-
 tional assemblage may grow out of | these conferences which will take its place in the government of this en-
 pire, but for the moment I would say
 to you to content yourselves with the
 prOsaic but useful task of advising the government of India on certain speci- l fife matters"
 Great weight also Is attached to the
 fact that>so many of the rulers should
 meet at the invitation of the viceroy
 at this crucial time in the history of
 the world war. Their mere presence
 in the capital city is interpreted as a
 tribute of loyalty to England, and in
 addition to this an unqualified state,
 ment of adherence to the throne was
 made in the name of the conference
 by the Maharaja Gaekwar of Baroda
 during his answer to the closing
 speech of the viceroy. In concluding
 his address the Maharaja turned to-
