DR.. James Melvin Lee, director OF the
department OF Journalism OF New York
University. speaking last night TO tho
Jackson Heights Press Club In the Com
munity Church OF Jackson Heights, said
most critics attack the purpose OF a
newspaper rather than the way In which
that purpose In carried on. DIR. Lee
divided the metropolitan dailies into two
classes, one OF which he called the
crusaders and the other the dispensers
OF news. He continued:
AT least. whatever the press does I,
does openly. Its sins are known and
read by all men. IL Is nor double faced
II does not print one edition for ore sc,
OF men and another for anotner. That Is
true of those papers most criticised for
their sensatlonalism and for the saffron
hue. The question may honestly be
asked Are the things which these pa
pers print worse than what people dor
