Ing TO officials in charge of the event.
4 committee of business executives
has set to work to complete details of
all units of this yearly survey and

and industrial activities of the District
OF Columbia.
Martin A. Leese president of the
Chamber of Commerce, heads the
organiza ton, assisted by the following
executive committee: Ross p. An

discussing the aims of the chamber
jr his connection. Mr.. Leese yester
day declared: ..+
We are planning a larger eXposi
zion this year than any previous one
This is made possible by the success
Of the former events sponsored by the
Washington Chamber of Commerce,
which have demonstrated the value of
n annual showing of business and
Industrial activities by stimulating
their growth and increasing the
knowledge and confidence of the
peonle in these enterprises.
The chamber throughout the year
Il IL. In
cf assisting the expansion of the bust
ness and industrial life of Washing
ton. 1t has hit upon the exposition
idea, however, as furthering the eco
romic advancement of the community
most effectively. Such an occasion is
IN fact. an inventory of our growth.
IT provides the opportunity for dis
play of our resources and gives the
firms that are established here a
chance to become better acquainted
with the buying public and better able
to gauge its needs"
Admission viii Be Free.
Several innovations in the conduct
of the exposition have been planned
this year to make participation more
advantageous for business and indus
trial concerns and to attract greater
crowds than those which attended in
the past.
One notable departure from former
procedure is the decision to throw
this years exhibition open to the pub
lie without making an admission
charge. Tickets will be distributed
without charge by the firms that will
be exhibitors.
Abolition of the admission fee will
not have the effect of reducing ex.
ghibit plans in any way. On the con-
trary, exhibits will be larger and more
comprehensive.

CRIME NEWS

Addressing conference on crime, Charles II. Den
mis- editor OF the Chicago Daily News, makes this
ply to critics who condemn the papers for their use
of crime news:
Crime obtrudes itself, while news Of meritorious
actions, rule is surprisingly difficult to capture
"The outcIy so many people make against the pub
lication of is IN sense outcry against
human nature. 1t is the province OF newspaper to
be as interesting as possible, within the bounds OF
goodtaste and good morals newspaper exists only
because it is purveyor OF news 1t 1t ceases to pub
lish the IN reasonably complete form, 1t present
lv ceases to exist, for the public doons it to swift
or lingering DEATH and rightly so"
The same general idea might be put IN Sllgntly
different way Take news that circulates naturally
by word of mouth in any community, without help
from newspapers. What KIND OF news gains quickest
currency and widest distribution by this under
ground route?" Crime news police news, mostly.
Let murder robbery or fight or unexplained
death occur, and how 1t spreads through the COM
munity, Nearly everybody makes it hi sbuslness to
tell his nee hbors. And people seem lnStlnctNely to
consider evil news more important than good news.
That is merely what the newspapers seem to DO on
bigger scale, over wider range.
Yet even SO, possibly the newspapers arc blamed
over much. The amount of crime news they PRINT IS
exaggerated In any but the yelloWest papers 1t
bears much lower proportion to the total volume
of news than people imagine. The headlines or else
readers keen interest IN such news, may mSlead
them in estimating it.

4 QUESTIONABLE STEP

Murder trials sordid things, offering little in
the way of beneficial knowledge, imposing trying
duty members of the legal fraternity and citizens
chosen for Jury duty and attracting spectators in
the main, only the morbdly curious.
1t IS hard to understand why class Of high school
students should be dismissed from school in order to
attend court where a is trial for taking hu-
life. This done in northern city OF the
state yesterday and cannot but question the wis
dom of the school authorities in taking such step.
AS the trial had only started it is to be supposed
that the students and heard nothing than
the monoonouS and unntereSting selection of jury
from, which process they could only draw slight
glimmerlng of criminal law procedure. 1t is to be
hoped that they not dismissed from class to
able further attendance at the trial.
Anyone who has been boy knows that how
much bad boy feared, he is looked upon with
considerable ave. perhaps with little jealousy, by
those who are considered good There is a certain
gamor about him that attracts, if the attraction
be secret
So it is with the murderer, accused of
der. They either self-possessed, with grim de-
termination to hang to their nerve and play the
game they air of braggadocio that
might well be interpreted by inlpressionable mind
bravery herosnl. The sclence-stricken, re-
morsefu slayer is not often in courtroom.
There is considerable danger that whatever benefit
students of school age might obtain from watching
the procedure in a murder trial will be ecpsed by the
false glamor that often surrounds the accused.
Youngsters might better be kept in their class
rooms attending their studies, leaving the work of
trying accused murderers those who chosen for
that duty and letting the spectators be those who
have nothing better to do.
