FICTION IN. THE GARB OF
TRUTH

The evil that results from the
activities of some journalists in
coloring the news of the day and
particularly tom the reckless man
ner in which some of the cores
pondents at Washington adulterate
the news chronicling and interpret
ing the affairs of government, was
brought forcefully to the attention
OF the American Society of News
paper Editors at Washington last
April by President Harding.
Owner and editor of a newspaper
and journalist of forty-six years
experience, Mr.. Harding gave warn
ing against that sort of journalism
He said in part:
Fl would rather have the COM
munty hold my publication to be a
dependable source of information
than to proclaim it the most enter
prisng publication that ever was
gotten up. The chief objection to
inaccuracy is that it leads to false
Impressions, unintentional no doubt,
and it gives bent to the popular
mind sometimes that ought never to
be given. There is not a reason in
the world why the essential news of
public life should not be as accurate
as though it was a matter Of official
record.
II don't know how many news
paper men are going to be Presi-
dent, but if any of you ever succeed
me, you are going to have one thing
that will try your patience beyond
all sort of expression, and that is
to have man in some branch of the
public service call upon YOU. and
maybe, talk to you about q bit of
patronage, maybe about something
that ought to be done in his locality,
and then appear in the evening
Hapers of that day. or in the morning
rapers of the next day, as having
told you innumerabe things about
how to run the Government and how
YOU must do it if YOU are going to
get on, when never a word has been
said about it during the interview"
The Boston Transcript in an
editorial points out that "even in the
midst of arrangements for Mr.. Hard
ins's funeral, Mr.. Coolidge has been
made the target for the most
astounding misrepresentation and err
fors of fact for which there is not
the slightest excuse" 1t asserts that
senators, whom Mr.. Coolidge has
summoned to his side for the advice
and counsel that he naturally needs,
and as naturally seeks, have left
his office only to be made the news
peg" for dispatches and the target
for editorials that have no founda-
ton in fact and, in conclusion and
comment, are consequently as unfair
as they are untruthful. "If this mis-
representation by professedly re-
sponsible and allegedly respectable
newspapers keeps up, the press of
the nation as "A whole will suffer
grievously in the estimation of the
people" The Transcript declares.
Instances in which the Transcript
alleges that Mr.. Coolidge and certain
senators have been misrepresented
in news articles appearing in some
of the large newspapers of the coun-
try, are referred to editorially.
Accuracy in chronicling the news of
the day is the appeal. Would that
the words of the dead President
could be read by every reporter in
the country who feels it his duty to
turn out columns of copy" and pass
on to the public fiction in the garb
of truth.

William Jennings Bryan is the sub
ject of an editorial by Glenn Frank
in the September Century. He is
discussed as an exponent of the
Fundamentalist movement in the
churches and as an opponent of
Darwinism. Mr.. Frank considers the
Commoner paradox, "a mind
divided aeainst itself" He accent
yates the contrast between his
liberalism in politics and his con-
serEatism in religion. This he eX-
plains on the basis of the Nebraska
orators penchant for making the
Chautauqua circuit. Bryan needs,
he believes, an audience that he can
carry with him. Had Mr.. Bryan
became the prophet of religious
liberalism" Mr.. Frank suggests, "he
would have become a voice crying in
the wilderness, thing he has never
been, despite the fact that he has
been so described for more than half
a generation. Mr.. Bryan has always
been carried en- a ground swell of
revolt or a wave of growing popular
desire" Further on, Mr.. Frank calls
attention to the surface failure of
Mr.. Bryan's career. HE has not
achieved Office and been invested
with the authority that would have
enabled him personally to carry
out his program. 1t may we'll be that
he feels a certain compensation for
this exile from political authority
in his ardent advocacy of religious
authority that is, in his theory, eX-
empt from human analysis and as
scssment If you cannot win the bat
tie, there is satisfaction in living
about the battle" Mr. Frank takes
pains to say that the reasons for Mr..
Bryan's shift from liberal politics to
conservative religion may not be
plain to the Commoner. They may
operate subconsciCusly.

New York. Oct, k,-Rsperis that
ysa considering . reduction IN steel
prices were denied yesterday by
Judge Ebert II. Gary. chairman Of
lts board OF directors, The FnmeF
arose from the reported taking BY
some independent steel companies Of
business al prices below current
levels and the possibility that this
forsshadowed a general cut IN prices
by the leading unit OF the industry,
Actual market conditions as por-
trayed by Iron age In Its current re-

quarter OF the year arrives, consump-
tion Ia reported 10 be at high rate

ing on from that OF early summer
ana neither sellers nor buyers are
forcing the issue as 10 prices for for
ward delivery.
at IL recognized on both sides that
ueptember conditions may prevail for
some weeks" the report says, Com
pIste returns show a pig iron pro-
duction OF s.i26.bi2 tons In the thirty
days of September. or iot.ist tons
day, against s.4lo.l93 tons In Aug
ust, or iii.274 tons day. After
having reached daily rate OF 49,
900 tons at the peak In May. pig iron
output Is now back to the 10000 ton
rate OF January.
"scptember operations Of the Steel
Corporation are estimated at about 81
per cent OF It's steel making capac-
ity. The output of independent steel
companies averaged not far from 20
per cent of capacity last month and

tober will call for an early picking |

The Chesapeake and Ohio has just or

The Iron Trade Review said:
REVIVAL of steel buying on board
scale has not yet made Its appear
ance, but the market continues to ex-
hibit evidence of sound underlying
conditions. Stocks with a number OF
consumers apparently are reaching
spot where they demand replenish-
ment. September business, while not
up to expectations for all producers,
