or upon any of the other fundamental
rights OF our citizenry; yet do be-
lieve these rights have been placed In
serious Jeopardy"
Dangers to Press Freedom.
The dangers. he said. ARE those
inherent in the increasing complexi-
ties of our modern business and po-
litical affairs"
Howard Davis, business manager Of
the New York Herald Tribune, told
the convention:
Recent events again have proved
that free speech and free press as
a condition, as living fact, can be
preserved only by hard and persistent
fighting.
The attacks do not all come from
demagogues and radicals; they also
come from many well meaning folks
who are controlled by personal griev-
ances and prejudice, and who, without
bemg conscious Of it, believe in free
speech only for themselves or for those
who agree with them"
At yesterday afternoons session H.
A. Sprague of the st. Joseph, Mo-,
Gazette, presented the report of the
Advertising Agents Committee. which
contained two resolutions, one provid-
ing that newspapers will not recognize
agencies which do not use the standard
form Of contract and the other pro-
viding that recognition Of agencies be
cancelled if they refuse to take the
liability for payment Of services rend-
cred under their contracts. Both reso-
lutions we're adopted.
Edwin S. Friendly of the New York
Sun pointed out that while national
advertising Of newspapers increased in
1884 and 1885 the gain was more than
accounted for in liquor advertising
which had not been legal before.
This can only mean that we are
not maintaining our progress in other
lines" he said
He gave three reasons for this:
Failure to keep up with competitors in
promotion; development Of radio ad-
vertising; competition between news
papers in certain States, the local.
national rate controversy and other
factors which make lit. hard for the
advertiser to use the medium"
j. E. Finneran Of the Scripps-Ho
ard newspapers declared that many
national advertisers were getting
around the differential between ma.
tional and local rates by placing their
advertisements at local rates through
| local dealers or distributors. -
The practice" he said, "is spread.
ing and unless curbed 1t will sharply
affect not only national rates, but the
whole rate structure Of newspapers q.

Carl Jones of the Minneapolis Trib-
une urged greater attention to color
advertising in newspapers.

He said several papers, particularly

Criminal Prosecution in

NEW YORK, April 23.-Charging
that the Black Senate Lobby Com
mittee violated constitutional rights
In seizure of kilograms and cor
respondence, the American Newspaper
Publishers Association recommended
in a resolution today that all vic
tins" demand criminal prosecution "of
all involved in the odious affair"
BY a unanimous vote, the fiftieth
annual convention adopted a resolu-
tion offered by the Committee on
Freedom of the Press, which also
urged that civil damages be sought.
1t commended those who by appeals
TO the courts have helped to curb"
what 1t described as the illegal con-
duct of the Senate committee and the
Federal Communications Commission.
Mccormick Heads Committee.
Three other resolutions offered by
the committee, headed by Col Robert
r. Mccormick of the Chicago Tribune,
were aodopted without opposition.
In a substitute resolution offered by
the committee the convention as
serted:
The press of this country should
resist the attempts of such alliances
In Minnesota and any other State to
abridge the freedom of the press,
whether abridgment be attempted by
lawlessness, legislation or any other
means"
1t asserted that Officials of the State
Of Minnesota have long sought to re-
strain the press in the performance of
its functions" and that these oppres-
sions Of the press have been charac-
terized by a campaign of violence
against editors criticizing improper
gangster alliances. eliminating in the
murder of Walter Liggett, Minneapolis
editor"
To Resist Alliances.
The original resolution summoned
the press Of the Nation to use its
weapon of publicity in resisting the at
tempts of politico-criminal alliances in
Minnesota or any other place to
abridge the freedom of the press.
Col. Mccormick in offering the sub
Etitute made no explanation Of the
reason for the charge.
The other resolutions commended
Louisiana publishers and the Phila-
delphia Inquirer on legal victories in
defense Of press freedom.
Radio, labor relations and problems
Of the mechanical departments were
considered in the morning session.
In move designed to make Press
Radio Bureau news bulletins avail
able to all radio listeners, resolu-
tion was offered urging expansion Of
the service.
Few Industrial Troubles.
The last year has been characterized
by few serious industrial disturbances
In the newspaper industry, a special
committee reported. 1t noted, how
ever, the presence in unusual abun-
dance OF potentially infammab BILE fac
tors capable of becoming the igniting
point Of a widespread confiagration
OF misunderstanding and strikes"
Arthur Hays Sulzberger, president
and publisher Of the New York Times,
in discussing the general subject Of
press freedom, said:
Unlike some Of you, am not con-
vinced that the present adnlinistra-
ton in Washington has or had de-

continue to oppose the illegal use Of
its news and to protect the property
right which each has in the news
which 1t has gathered. Newspaper
publishers should resist any attempt
upon the part Of any group to cur
tail the rights Of freedom Of express
sion by means Of radio or any wire
communication system.
THE sale Of news to any broadcast
ing station or to any advertisers for
sponsorship over the air is just as
unsound as II the newspapers sold
news to their advertisers and then
permitted them to commingle this
news with advertising copy

of radio stations has opened the door
for the Government to attempt to in
timidate the press" it said. 1T is
the duty Of publishers to see that the
regulation Of broadcasting Is kept
free from political domination and
without bias or prejudice.
Propaganda under the guise of
news over the radio eventually might
conceivably cause the disintegration
Of public confidence in the press
but not If the press Is vigilant in the
protection Of the citizens rights to

The committee called upon pub
fishers and the press associations to

1t urged that it be authorized to

Asked by member of the panel why
Congress did not face the taxation
issue squarely by placing the tax bur-
den on those best able to bear it, spe-
cifically the middle class" with in
comes of $500 or more, as advocated
by Senator La Toilette In his bill intro
duced at the last session, Kenney re-
piled:
"I am against taxing the man with
an income of only $500 year. This
plan would permit people to con-
tribute toward eliminating the Fed
eral deficit voluntarily. At cost Of
not more than $40 year for the aver
age person in this country the holder
OF a ticket would have a chance Of
benefiting while helping to reduce the
deficit"
Kenney explained the provisions Of
the bill he has introduced into the

A suggestion was made by Harry

touches of blue and looked for all the

there was no doubt that this girl was

Phil was both puzzled and in
