In discussing the press she ~
1.-THE press OF the country n : ~
tie different from ambassador w
send our ambassadors and thev
interpret their governments; bu, \,
press can even go further. They ~
interpret the different people. A.,
that is why The Associated D..
has been, I think. really one OF n.
greatest agents for progress tina. !.
have known in our generation. Va
cannot realize how great that re,oo,
sibility Is. I do not want 10 aa,,.
the press. do not really lik. I.
flatter any one.
But think the whole vo,,,
should know what II owes to N,
Melville L. stone. Counselor OF N,
ssociated Press and for many yea,
its general manager). His wish,
created you. and when he did
think he did what an old negro on.
down in Virginia says did. WI,
I showed her a photograph OF NJ
home in England. she said. Ter .
goodness Miss Macy. you Jus. o..
married yourself That Is what N,
Melville Stone did. He Just Or.
thought himself. But his vision |,
going 10 lead TO a better world a.
a better understanding among I,
countries"
II know great deal about d.
Associated Press. because I have see.
it in England. IL is not what I think
about II that counts: II Ia what IN.
representatives people think about \
1 have heard men In the very higher
positions in England say. well, n
that is The Associated Press. let then
in. We can tell them anything A.
much rs you could n cabinet NH.
lister. because they always play u.
game"
Gentlemen. IL is UP 20 YOU" ss
THE two greatest forces
in the world for peace and civilin
tlon are mothers and the press. Gun
is the greater task. Our children ar
going 10 be what we mothers manE
them. and. although you hear q ID.
about the American mothers. I te,
that the press sometimes loses IL {
head about fiappers and modeH
and things like that. Per.
haps they are lacking headliners. II
am not disturbed about the moderr
any more than ! am abcu
the modern press"
Now. will -ou let me speak 10 yos I
as n Nirginisn and not as a BrtiI
member OF Parliament .. i'll
