Ogden REID, "a, Dead;
Was Editor Of Tribune
In New York 81 Years
BY the Associated Press

NEW YORK, Jan. 4.-Ogden Reid,
"a, editor of the New York Herald
Tribune, died last night in Hark-
mess Pavilion.
He had entered the hospital early
last month for treatment of an
Iulcerous throat. but after respond
ing to treament he developed bron-
chial pneumonia.
At his bedside were his wife, Mrs.
Helen Rogers Reid, his sons, White
law and Ogden Rogers Reid. and
his sister, Lady Ward of London.
A native of New York. Mr.. Reid
became editor of the Tribune in
1918, and in 1924 directed the papers
purchaser of the rival morning
paper, the Herald, then owned by
Frank A. Munsey, and combined the
two papers.
Although he was admitted to the
New York bar and worked in a
law Office for year, he abandoned
the legal profession in 1908 to join
the Tribune, of which his father,
Whitelaw Reid, was editor. He be-
gan as a reporter, and after ad-
vancing first to assistant city editor
and then to assistant night editor,
he became managing editor in 1912
Became Editor in 1913.
Mr.. Reid's father died in Decem-
ber, 1912, while Ambassador to the
Court of st. James, and the follow
ing year the son became editor.
Since then the papers circulation
has multiplied tenfold.
Although his sy1hpathies generally
were with the Republican Party, as
were those of the papers founder,
Horace Greeley, Mr. Reid once said
in a commencement address at
Miami University that his editorial
policy was founded on an excerpt
from an editorial written by his
father at the close of the Greeley
Grant presidential campaign, which
read: 4
"The honest presentment of the
news-whether it hinders or helps
the side we favor-We believe to be
the duty of a great newspaper which
means to deal fairly with its read
ers."
Mr.. Reid studied at Browning
School and the University of Bonn
before receiving his law degree from
Yale University in 1907.
In addition to being editor, Mr.
Reid was president of the New York
Tribune, Inc, the owning corpora
ton.
Wife Active in Journalism.
He was married in 1911 to Helen
Miles Rogers of Racine, Wisconsin
Mrs. Reid shared her husbands
Journalistic interest with equal en-
thusiasm. For many years she has
been active in directing the papers
policies.
An energetic student Of foreign
affairs, Mr.. Reid travelled abroad
many times, often as rowing
journalist. Experience gained from
these travels resulted in this opinion
which he wrote in the Herald Tri-
bune in 1926:
II believe that we need interna-
tional courts, but to make them
effective, to make them anything
more than a pious gesture, there
must be between nations the same
sort of good will, understanding OF
problems and respect for differences
that exists among the people of a
civilized nation
Funeral arrangements were not
announced.

Six Cdses Are Listed
For County for
Rehabilitation Work

More than 100 men, women
and young people of employ
able age are receiving vocation
al rehabilitation services in
southeastern Montana, o. v.
Crumbaker of Billings said on
Tuesday.
He made one of his regular
calls in this county on that
day. He added that six cases
are listed for Big Horn county.
Three of these are in training.
An additional 18 new names
are under consideration and
others are deferred while in
the public schools. Crumbaker
credited public Officials, teach
erS and nurses for making this
possible and said they had
shown keen interest and given
full cooperation with the pro-
gram.
The total figure shows a con-
tinuing growth and expansion
since the establishment of the
Billings branch office of the
Bureau of Vocational Rehabil-
itation. More than 100 other
people are under Investigation
or deferred to allow the COM
pletion of high school work.
The branch office in Billings
serves 16 south and southeast
ern counties of Montana with
itinerant service arranged to al
low frequent contacts with
handicapped individuals and
cooperating agencies in other
communities. The bureau pro-
vides a free public service, with
the objective of restoring hand
icapped parsons to useful and
remunerative employment.
As of December, 1947, 81 in
dividuals are in training from
the Billings area. Eleven other
cases are waiting for medical
examination reports, IS are in
the cOunseling and planning
stage and five others have
their plans completed. Four are
listed as ready for employment,
with 20 others now in remun-
erative employm t. Four
people are in interrupted
status.
The Hardin tribune-herald. [volume] (Hardin, Mont.) 1925-1973, 1947-12-18

Eleven are receiving physical
restoration services and pros
thetic appliances or are in the
convalescent stage. Here the
bureau supplements the indi-
vidual's personal finances as
necessary to provide the SER
vice 50 that he can enter or
remain in gainful employment.
This service may include sur
gerry, disqualification, artificial!
arms or legs, hearing aids and
other devices.
In all classifications these
figures are above December,
1945. At that time the Billings
office area covered 26 Mon
tana counties instead of the
sixteen now being served.
