Just IL whole half bushel OF stuff sent

defeaded by score OF to l.
The game was a short one, of only
seven innings. Except for some good

to be with Hope, and much OF the

PREAMBLE

In America, where the stability OF
the govcrrment rests upon the ap-
prOval Di he people, it is essential
thh ,wWslsi pers, the medium thru
whit i llc people draw their informa-
tion, be developed to a high point Of
efficiency, stability, impartiality and
integrity. The future of the republic
depends on the maintenance of a
high standard among journalists
Such a standard cannot be main
tanned unless the motives and con-
duct of the members OF our profession
are such as merit approval and con-
fidence
The profession of journalism is en-
titled to stand side by side with the
other learned professions and is, far
more than any other, interviewer
with the lines OF public service. The
journalist cannot consider his profes-
sion rightly unless he recognizes his
obligation to the public. A newspa-
per does not belong solely to its
owner and is not fulfilling it's high
est function If devoted selfishly.
Therefore, the Missouri Press Asso-
citation presents the following prin-
ciples as a general guide, not as set
form Of rules, for the practice of
journalism:

than are actually on the paid list in
order to secure larger advertising
prices is obtaining money under false
pretenses. The advertiser is entitled

CODE OF ETHICS
MISSOURI PRESS ASSOCIATION ADOPTS CODE
OF ETHICS.

A step forward in journalism was
made when the Missouri Press Assn,
adopted IL code Of ethics at their last
meeting in Columbia, Mo. The prin-
ciples set forth are so nearly those
that we have tried to follow that
we publish the code in full, and sub
init it as our platform in toto.

Curiosity. which is called idle, Is al
ways on the job.--Albany Journal
The Neshoba Democrat., 1921-06-16
EDITORIAL

We declare as fundamental prin-
ciple that truth is the basis of all
correct journalism. To go beyond
the truth, either in headline or text,
is subversive OF good journalism. To
suppress the truth, when 1t properly
belongs to the public, is a betrayal
of public faith.
Editorial comment should always
be fair and just and not controlled
by business or political expediencies.
Nothing should be printed editorial
ly which the writer will not readily
acknowledge as his own in public.
Control of news or comment for
business considerations is not
worthy OF newspaper. The news
should be covered, written and in
terpreted wholly and at all times in
the interest of the public. Advertis-
ers have no claims on newspaper fa-
vor except in their capacity as read
ers and as members OF the communi-
ty.
No person who controls the policy
of a newspaper should at the same
time hold office or have affiliations,
the duties of which conflict with the
public service that his newspaper
should render.
ADVERTISING
1t is not good ethics nor good bust
ness to accept advertisements that
are dishonest, deceptive or mislead-
ing. Concerns or individuals who
want to use our columns to sell
questionable stocks or anything else
which promises great returns for
small investment should always be
investigated. Our readers should be
protected from advertising sharks
Rates should be fixed at a figure
which will yield a profit and never
cut. The reader deserves Il square
deal and the advertiser the same
kind OF treatment.
Advertising disguised as news or
editorial should not be accepted. Po-
litical advertising especially should
show at glance that it is advertis
ing 1t is just as bad to be bribed by
the promise of political patronage as
to be bribed by political cash.
To tear down a competitor in or
der to build up oneself Is not good
business, nor is it ethical. Newspa-
per controversies should never enter
newspaper columns. Good business
demands the same treatment to a
competitor that one would like for a
competitor to give to himself. Create
new business rather than try to take
away that of another.
Advertising should never be de-
manded from a customer simply be-
cause he has given it to another pa
per. Merit, product and service
should be the standard.

greatness and Greek subjects of the Osmanl became

Today the Turk is defeated and his European es-
tate is gone, only as he clings to shadowy
title to Constantinope, where the Sultan sits in his
palace, protected by allied bayonets. Actually the
power has passed from Constantnople to Angora
and from the Sultan to Kemal Pasha. The Sultan is
more than prisoner of the great powers, such
without power influence among his own
people.
Powerless as he was, the Sultan accepted the
treaty of Sevres which gave Greece Thrace, with
Adrianople, and frontage the Aegean on the
Asiatic shore, with Smyrna. But Kemal Pasha,
serting thar the Sultan prisoner and forced
accept this treaty under duress, rejected it and led
the Turkish troops, raised in Asia Minor to battle
against the Greeks. The real as contrasted with the
theoretical capital became Angora But victorious

feated His army has long been in retreat since il
was heavily beaten at Kutaia and on the Bagdad
