Newsdealers Amalgamate
In Fight Against Hearst
All Individual Bodies To Be Organized in One
Central Union With Paid Executives More Effci-
emily to Garry on Struggle for Trade independence

The fight of the newsboys and news
venders Of greater New York against
the tyranny of the Hearst publica-
tions entered into new stage yester-
day when Joseph A. Sultan, chairman
of the joint committee, announced that
plans had been completed for the
formation Of . strong central organ-
zation in which all the associations,
now operating separately, will be COM
bincd.
The new organization, which will be
run on the lines of high grade labor
union, will maintain offices in this
city, paid executive who will devote
all of his time to the interests of the
vendors and paid staff. In this way
it will be possible to coordinate the
efforts of the 10000 vendors of the
greater city and eliminate much dupli-
cation of action.
Will Increase Efficiency
In the increased efficiency which is
expected to flow from such an organi-
zation the joint committee believes it
VIII De IN position to secure the ser
vices OF high calibre business man
for the executive head of the organiza-
tion and at the same time save money
for the members. The members will
also have the added advantage of a
central Office to which all trade mat
ters can be referred and which, in fact,
Will serve as a general clearing house.
The decision to form an organization
OF this sort is direct result of the
fight Of the dealers to escape from
Hearst control. In this fight, in which
they found themselves caught between
the patriotic public which refuses to
buy the Hearst papers and the Hearst
organization and its allies which has
insisted that the dealers must carry
them whether they wished to or not,
The value of the organization has been
demonstrated. SO also has been the
need of paid executives who can handle
the work the few individual members
have had to devote their time to, result
ins in neglect of their private business
All Bodies Represented
The decision to form the central or
ganization was reached at a meeting at
which the needs and advantages OF such
an organization were discussed by Mr.
Sultan, president of the Brooklyn News
dealers Associations; Samuel Rothbart
president of the Queens Borough News
dealers Association; julius Weber, OF
the Circle Newsdealers and Stationers
Associations; J. B. Marcus, of the West

Marines to Give Out
Only Real News Now
Boys Writing Publicity With
Bayonets in Hun Blood,
Captain Sterrett Saws

The Marine Corps Press Bureau has
quit. That is, in a way, it is through.
No longer are the tri-weekly human
interest stories which earned the ma
rines columns of space and made their
press agent the envy of every theatrical
press agent in the land to be sent out
Instead, the bureau is to be an out-and-
out news bureau, sending out copy only
when there is real news story to send.
Announcement in the change of
method was made by Captain I. G.
Sterrett, head of the Marine Recruit
ing Publicity Bureau, yesterday. In his
letter announcing the change of policy
CAotsin Sterrett wrote: eve think it
a sort of sacrilege to send out the kind
of matter we are forced to send out
when our marines over there are writ
ing publicity with their bayonet points
dipped in Hun blood. Theirs is the
kind of Marine Corps publicity that
counts"

Cap'n Bill Weikal, skipper and crow

nights rest aboard his vessel last night

weeks ago. There were two reasons
for his sound slumber. and both wore
the uniform of the Jersey City police.
The policemen were assigned to the
Raritan at the Morgan Street pier af-
ter Cap'n Weikal had complained that
woman and two men had been follow
ing him ever since he had counted his
money, and generally the trio were
discussing various ways of numbering
him.
He said that last Sunday night he
found them hiding on the Raritan it,

by threatening to "scuttle the shin"
with all hands. Also, he put his savings

Washington, Aug. 5.-Names of
American soldiers who have fallen in
the great Franco-American drive,
which turned the German offensive
on the Warne into an utter defeat,
have begun to come in from over
seas. They swel1ed to 7O6 the total
casualties made public to-day by the
War Department in two separate
lists.
Although nearly three times as
great as the largest number hereto
fore announced in a single day, the
total to-day represents only part of
the lists which have been accumulat-
ing since the great battle began July
3. and it Is not to be assumed that
1t represents the losses for any one
day.
No estimate Of the American casu-
alties in this continuous fighting has
been received from Gen. Pershng,
and it was said authoritatively to-
day that none is to be expected.
Two Lists Sent.

459 were Of those who were killed in
action and 80. who died from wounds.

list showed i8 wounded severely, / 90
wounded. degree undetermined. and
3 missing in action. In the first list
there also were who died of dis
ease. Of an airplane accident and 6
