Members Put Ban
On Hearst Papers

WORCESTER, Mass, June 49,
Members Of the Union Church have
voted not to read the William Ran
dolph Hearst newspapers as result
of an arraignment of "pacifist publica-
tions" by their pastor, the Rev. Ben
jamin F. Wyland. This is the opening
move of Massachusetts, citizens to
wipe Hearstism out of the state.
In his talk to his congregation the
Rev. Mr.. Wyland reviewed the history
of the Hearst dailies. 1.-THE deletion of
President Wilson's Memorial Day proc
lamation to make it prayer for peace
instead OF a prayer for victory has
brought to a climax the most sinister
and unpatriotic piece of newspaper
propaganda in America to-day" he
said.
America remembers this same edi-
tors unjust attack on President Nc
Kinley that so shortly preceded his
assassination. The whole gamut Of in
fidelity has been skilfully played upon
by one who in his heart apparently
sympathizes with Germany. The facts
brichy are these: Whenever Germany's
armies reached their deepest penetra-
tlon into France and were threatened
with election Hearst took up the cry

Plattsburg Gains
Recruits Against
Hearst Papers

PLATTSBURG, N. Y, June 1s.--The
move to bar Hearst newspapers from
this town, the home Of the first Off
GERS training camp, is gaining addi-
tional recruits every day. The mem
bers of General Steven Moffatt Camp
of Spanish War Veterans, have signitied
their intention of joining the church,
civic and patriotic societies which
initiated the campaign.
The Home Defence organization OF
Plattsburg, which is the prime mover
in the campaign to rid the town of the
Hearst sheets, is planning to evade
legal action by using the method Of
simple appeal to the patriotism of the
good people living here. For the first
time in movement Of this kind they
are being assisted by the womens
branch of the Home Defence League,
acting officially through their county
chairman.
A few days ago the men who are
training to lead Americas fighters
would not have anything to do with
Hearst papers in camp. They did not
bar the papers, but merely refused to
buy the Hearst organs when they were
offered for sale This is the plan
which will probably be followed in the
town generally.
"The trouble here said a prominent
city official to-day. ais that the inhabi-
tants of this city are not familiar with
even q quarter Of the offences COM
mitted by the Hearst papers, for the
reason that but few copies are sold
here. except in the summer, when the
camp is open for military instruction.
"Plattsburg may be a little slow in
taking it's stand in the Hearst affair,
but it will be heard from in a most
patriotic way within a few days.

still reading Hearst papers so that the
councilmen could make personal ap-
peals to those citizens.

Of peace. Germany's peace propaganda
found him a GOOD snokesman

of peace. Germany's peace propaganda
found him a good spokesman.
Hearst agitated against the first
Anglo-French loan and campaigned to
prevent individual contributions. He
pleaded with Congress to place an en-
barge on munitions. He extenuated
the sinking of the Lusitania. In his
hatred of England he played upon
prejudices likely to embitter feelings
between the two nations and lead to
misunderstanding. He pictured the
tremendous strength of Germany and
urged the United States to avoid a
lone struggle.
"Hearst's publications and news SER
vice have been barred out Of England
and Canada. The Grand Army Of the
Republic in numerous localities has
urged that patriotic people stop the
purchase Of papers and magazines.
When We realize the sinister character
of his newspaper work, it is time that
America clean house and get rid Of
such form of journalism. for one,
from patriotic reasons, decline hence
forth to buy anv of his products"
The congregation voted unanimously
to support the Rev. Mr.. Wyland in his
campaign.

Urges Suppression
OF Hearst Papers

BRIDGEPORT. Conn.,, June ia
resolution asking the Postmaster Cen
eral to suppress the Hearst newspapers
and deploring further liberation either
Of Hearst or his publications was sent
TO Washington officials day by the
congregation Of the Universalist
Church of the Redeemer.
The action followed an address by
the Rev. William Wallace Rose, the
pastor, who referred to the subtle
methods by which Hearst recently has
disguised his propaganda.
The resolution adopted follows:
In view of the fact that the. gov
ernments Of France and Great Bfitain
barred Hearst newspapers and corre-
spondents, and in view of the fact
that the Hearst papers. by their ven
onnous hatred of all things British and
their subtle espousal of many things
German, have brought upon them
selves the action of the Allied govern
ments, and in view of the fact that q
Hearst publication was the only news
paper in the English language which
found 1t desirable to censor the Presi-
dent's proclamation Of Memorial Day
a. day OF prayer for victory into q
fact that Hearst over his own sigma
ture has consistently tried to create
suspicion between the American peo-
pie and the people Of our allies, Great
Britain and Japan, and in view of the
fact that Hearst urged waiting until
the Germans came over here to make
war on US, preached that Americans
should have the matter Of choice az to
their services overseas, and has said
that he cannot get so excited as some
people over the war in Europe,

Home Defence Men
Bar Hearst Agent
From Big Meeting
They Refuse to Allow Him
to Distribute Circulars
Defending Employer

HAWORTH, N. j., June 1S.-Mem-
bers of the Haworth Home Defence
League chased a Hearst agent out Of
their meeting last night when the man
began distributing circulars, which
charged that it was the ''big interests"
that started all the anti-Hearst senti-
ment which swept over the country
after "The New York American" de-
leted the victory prayer from President
Wilson's Memorial Day proclamation.
The meeting was called to discuss
plans for completing the task of pro-
hibiting Hearst newspapers from being
sold in Haworth. Captain George
Lane, commander Of the Home Defence
unit. said it was the Leagues amhi-
ton to have this city absolutely clean
of Hearst publications when the sun
rises on July 4.
The Home Guardsmen have about
completed their undertaking as far as
Hearst's "New York American" is con-
cerned. A committee reported that an
investigation had revealed that only
five Americana" day are still being
purchased by Haworth citizens. The
guardsmen have accomplished this
since June 8, when they made their
first public appeal asking that citizens
cease reading Hearst publications.
Captain Lane predicted that few
bers would put Haworth in condition
for its Fourth of July celebration.
THE league members recently
passed resolution, in which they set
forth some Of the reasons why patri-
! otto Americans have risen against

derson, circulation manager of "The

newspaper has dealt with matters af-
fecting the war. 'In fairness to the
paper, hope you will take the trouble
to read The New York American be-
fore making any further attacks upon
it," he said.
The Hearst communication was an
