"News la Property"

The Supreme Court of the United States
has sustained the Federal Court DEGREES
restraining the International News Service
from piratine news OF the Associated Press.
Five members Of the court. including Chief
Justice White, concurred in a majority
opinion delivered by Associate Justice
Pitney, unfolding the principle Of prop
erty right in news and the complaint Of
unfair competition, and refusing to inter-
fere with injunctions specifically prohibit
ing the International News Service from
pirating.
Two minority opinions were delivered.
Associate Justice Brandeis dissented en-
tirely, declaring that while the Injustice
OF the use of unearned news matter by a
competition was obvious, the defendant
had acted without misrepresentati and
he regarded the majority opinion as lay
ing down dangerous opinion which might
result in the denial to great number Of
people OF news that only the Associated
Press secures. He suggested that there
should be legislation to protect the public
rights.

sufferers 1.770,00o are away from their
homes. having been driven out by the au-
thorities Many Of them are in llesopo-
tamia. Syria, Persia, the Caucasus and
Siberia. while some have been sent to the
most remote areas OF the Turkish empire.
The actual cost Of repatriatins and re-
establishing these people and Of supplying
their immediate needs for food and cloth
ing until they can be placed upon a self
supporting basis cannot be estimated with
exactitude. Figures have been compiled
however, showing the lowest possible esti-
mate based upon the most accurate facts
obtainable.
A Maryland Committee will aid in raising
this great fund. In every section of the
State and in every county prominent men
and women Of the community will give
their aid and will make appeals during the
week of January IL. They will work I'M
der the direction Of chief committee in
New York headed by former President
William Howard Taft, Charles E. Hughes,
Cleveland H. Dodge, DIR. David H. Greer,
Oscar S. Straus, Stephen S. Wise. Myron
7. Herrick, Vance C. Mccormick, Henry
Morgenthau, John R. Mott and many others.
OF the funds to be raised it is estimated
that $l4. 100000 will be needed on a per
capita basis of SIS to care for the 100000
with food for six months, this based on
the lowest possible estimate Another S.
$4,000 is needed on bedrock estima tie
to repatriate l,770,000 exiles, this based
on So per capita and on an average of
400 miles for each person. Another $4,-
100000 is needed to create homes for
100000 orphans. and S2.500,000 will be
necessary to provide seeds and farming
Implements to set up these sufferers on
the return to their homes Two other
items. one for 100000 for clothing and
bedding for the destitute millions and ST.
100000 to help restore the homes of the
exiles are included. These items bring the
total up to more than $36,000,000. but
the American Committee further cut down
the totals, hoping that aid might be GOT

n a nothing to fear from the great, nation
wide movement for truth in advertising
or from the policy Of The Tribune We are
not going to quarrel with you about the plac-
ing Of hyphen or comma, the crossing of
t or the dotting Of an H. /. We are trying to
do a constructive work in a constructive way.
We are trying to remove from your shoulders
a burden of unfair competition which YOU
cannot meet and which you are unable to de-
stroy. And as the occasion permits we are
pointing out to you those things which will
prevent your institution from even appearing
to have any Of the earmar}s of the other kind
VTvI1E policy has a threefold benefit. 1t
4 benefits alike the merchant, the con-
sumner and The Tribune II protects the
merchant in the matter of competition and
places him in his proper class in the mind of
the consumer. 1t safeguards the consumer in
his purchases, and it makes advertising more
valuable to the merchant and consequently
creates space for The Tribune
TRUTH in advertising is policy which
\ must succeed. It's foundation is Just as
solid as the fact that honesty is the best
policy. You cannot believe one without be-
ieving in the other. But just as the law relies
upon the law-abiding for it's support SO must
the movement for truth in advertising rely
upon the support and cooperation of the truth
full and the legitimate business man.

New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1918-04-07

A1EW YORK is the safest town in America
IV IN which to shop Merchandising
methods practised in New York are
cleaner than those used in any other large city
IN the United States. We think the policy of
he Tribune is largely responsible for this con-
dition. Not that that policy has created any
radical change in the merchandising methods
practlsed by the legitimate merchants of the
City OF New York, but that it has limited and
destroyed the methods pursued by the illegiti-
mate merchant. The Tribune has done for
legitimate business that which legitimate bust
ness could not do for ITSELF IF any legitimate
merchant of the City of New York should at
tempt to destroy an illegitimate competitor,
with whose methods he could not compete, the
legitimate merchant would at once be tarred
with the stick Of competition and accused of
attempting to profit by the destruction of his
alleged competitor This defence is not open
to the shyster merchant whose methods are
questioned by The Tribune.
sT~WO men might be arrested in the same
town, by the same kind Of policeman,
taken to the same station house, incar~
cerated in the same kind Of cell, docketed
upon the same docket and compelled to ap-
pear before the same Judge. Up to that point
both are mere offenders against the law. But
right there, in their appearance before the
court, there is distinction. The one is or
dinarily law-abiding, reputable citizen,
whose offence may be technically or mis-
conception of the law. The other is man
who makes his living by criminal means. The
first man can be handled by mere suggestion,
but society must be protected from the latter.
And if the first mentioned should rail at the
law and demand its repeal by reason of the
slight embarrassment suffered personality he
would only deprive himself Of the protection
he personally enjoys from the encroachment
of the latter He would find himself ultimate
]y prey to the second individual, with no pos
sible means Of relief or redress
THE policy of The Tribune is aimed at do
4 ing that thing for legitimate business
which legitimate business cannot do for
itself-at the absolute destruction of the ilegit-
innate merchant the elimination of unfair
merchandising methods. Recently buyer
for reputable New York store complained
that he did not like The Tribunes criticism of
his advertising statements, even if they were
untrue. And he insisted that he had right

his advertising. He pays for the space which
he buys III the public prints and it belongs to
HIM. 1t he purchased home in restricted
nelghborhood and an undesirable neighbor
moved into the neighborhood, thereby depre-
eating the value Of his property, he would
complain loudly Then why should he stand
tor newspaper neighbor in some low, vile,
loathsome, indecent medical copy; some lying
piece OF financial copy any other advertis-
ing which casts a shadow over the truth of the
statements which he makes concerning his
own legitimate product? Under The Tribune
policy he has the assurance that he will not be
annoyed with neighbors of this character.
h | REQUIRES no stretch Of the Imagination
4 to picture what would happen if the lid
were removed in the matter of advertise
ing carried by the merchants of New York.
You might suggest that if The Tribune did not
take care Of it somebody else would and on the
same basis; you might as we'll say that there is
no call for police Department. that if the
police did not make arrests somebody else
would But the question is, who would>
What IS everybody S business is nobody busi-
ness. 1t has been pointed out to us that but
per cent Of the advertising carried is illeait-
innate. We have no data by which to verify
the figures If the percentage is to-day, it is
safe to say that it was nearer so per cent when
The Tribune policy was first adopted But,
assuming that 1t is but per cent, we also have
figures showing that less than | per cent of
the population Of the world are of the criminal
type. Yet who would suggest abandoning the
police force, the criminal Courts and iais?
Society demands that protection and de-
mands it in the full knowledge that if it were
withdrawn the criminal percentage would
grow by leaps and bounds overnight And
legitimate business throughout the country to-
day is demanding the protection Of the organ
