AMERICAN SOLDIERS ABROAD
TO GET NEleHBoRHooD NEWS

New York, July 3.-Arrangements
to distribute neighborhood news to all
OF the American fighting forces abroad
has been perfected by the foreign press
cable service bureau OF the Committee
on Public Information, which is d.
rected by Walter s. Rogers. This
new feature designed to give to Am
erican soldiers such news as they
might expect 20 receive in letters from
their relatives and friends II the malls
could be depended upon. will be edited
by Herman Suter. who has had broad
experience as a newspaper publisher.
This service will be sent to France
and wherever American soldiers are
stationed every day by one of the big
German wireless plants which has been
operated by the government since the
European war started and used exten-
siyely for American propaganda in
Guiding the world broadcasting of
President Wilson's speeches during the
fifteen months this country has been
at war with Germany and its allies
The wireless reports will be deliver
ed free OF all tolls to military publi-
cations in France and where no news
paper can be distributed bulletins will
be SUPPLIED to headquarters OF the diff
ferenr units for posting on. convenient
~ located bulletin boards. The report
will be copied also by the wireless
J plants OF American warships wherever
, stationed.
Press to Cooperate.
| Press Associations and newspapers
generally have agreed 10 cooperate
with the committee in making the ser
vice a success. The part played by the
Associated Press. for instance VIII be
largely in the hands Of the bureaus
| scattered strategeticaily Throughout
the United States Some one in each
bureau called upon by the committee
| win send a brief telegraphic report
70 the committee in New York either
daily or two or three times a week
according to the need. giving merely
the high spots of the news local to th'
territory covered by such bureau.
Each item will be just about wha
would apepar in the headlines of loca
papers to describe important loca
events, such as nominations by politi
cal parties, deaths Of prominent citi
zens of different states, fires. wedding
OF state wide interest and other new
of less than international or nationa
interest and therefore certain not t
be cabled for publication in English
French or Italian newspapers.
In this way 1t is hoped to give tn
soldiers from every state at least tw,
or three items Of news from their hom
state or city each week. The bulge
win necessarily be limited. but tn
committee believes that the efforts {,
all those who periodically contribut
to the news service will be rewarde,
by the knowledge that they have re
duced inconsistencies among the mel
who are offering their lives in the de
Tense of the country.
