 AMERICAN JOURNALISM

Washington Dec. 8th In conformity with a long es- tablished practice in Amer ican journalism, all of the addresses, etc., of the open ing session of the armament conference were delivered in advance to the newspapers of the country, subject to their release upon delivery.
 Among such advance releas- es was a copy of the prayer with which the conference was opened. These copies were given not only to Amer ican newspapers, but to all representatives of the for eign press. One of t h eI French delegates was very much impressed by the fact 1 that he received copy of al prayer which had not yet 1 been offered. American journalism is very progress ive," he said. "A parsons prayer reaches your eyes be- fore it reaches the ears of God. That is very ia S u work. l
