This is the crux of the con-
traSt between the millionaire
commercial press and papers
, that the people own-like The
Chicago Star.
WHEN The Star recently
launched a drive for a $4,000
sustaining fund, some people
asked why.
This is the only paper we
read that asks for money over
and above the subscription
price" they said.
The fact is that The Star
costs more than the subscrip-
ton price. 1t is actually a peo-
pies non-profit institution that
requires a yearly subsidy from
those who need it, use it and
understand why it must be
maintained.
ACTUALLY. all newspapers
cost more than their selling
price. It was estimated that a
single issue of the New York
Times cost more than so cents
per copy to publish. The diff
ference is made up by Big

During the height of the Cen
tury of Progress fair in Chi
cago in 1888, an epidemc of
amoebic dysentery broke out at
the Congress Hotel.
Chicago merchants and hotel
owners were terrified. The
Chicago Health Dept. knew that
there were 11s cases. but not
a word about it appeared in the
Chicago papers.
Commissioner H erman N.
Bundesen reported the facts
at an American Public Health
Association meeting in Indian
apolis, and the papers there
carried the story. But the Chi
cago papers kept the secret
until three days before the fair
was to close.
IN 1906. Upton Sinclair made
public the shocking conditions
in the Chicago stockyards in
his book, "The Jungle" He
said later:
II had expected that every
newspaper which boasted of
public spirit would take up
these charges. and at least re-

Business advertisers who also
determine indirectly what news
is eft to print"
In the previous article in
this series it was pointed out
that newspaper publishing has
itself become a Big Business;
that wealthy publishers need
no one to twist their arms in
order for them to assume a re-
dictionary point of view.
However, the history of
American journalism is packed
with episodes illustrating the
effect of direct advertiser pres
sure on the handling of the
editorial columns.
SOME YEARS ago in Chi
cago, vice-president of Mar
shall Field & Co., one of the
city's biggest advertisers, was
indicted for trying to bribe al
dermen to pass an ordinance
permitting Fields to bridge two
buildings. The Chicago daily
press observed complete si-
lence. Only a German language
paper reported the five-day
trial.

there was silence-silence al

After Sinclair's sensational
disclosures had brought about
the introduction into Congress
of remedial legislation, testi-
mony before a Congressional
committee revealed that the
big packers poured millions of
dollars into a newspaper ad
campaign to defeat it.
SENATOR Norris testified
that after making a test sur
vey of the New York state pa
pers, he was unable to find a
single one without Swift & Co.
advertisements.
These ads, it was pointed out,
were mot in any way calcu1at-
ed to sell the products of Swift
& Co., but solely to defeat gov
ernment regulation Of the in
dustry."
It was shown that Swift &
Co, spent a million dollars a
month on this advertising and
that Armour & Co., was pay
ing $4,000 a page to farm pub
locations all over the country
for special articles"
In August, 1916, not one Chi
cago daily newspaper told its
readers what was happening
during an outbreak of 40 cases
of Australian %" fever in the
Swift & Co. slaughtering hous-
eS at the stockyards, although
all later printed the company's
denial.
SEVERAL years ago, the
Federal Trade Commission re-
ported the existence of a SIS
million-a-year propaganda fund
which the giant power inter
ests used to supply the news
papers with articles and edi-
torials against public owner
ship.
In freedom Of the Press"
George SeldeS records "the
case of the entire press of Pitts
burgh suppressing the news of
a rape case in which the son of
a department store owner was
the defendant"
These are only a few of the
scores Of similar instances in
which the "free press" in
America exhibits its bondage
to Big Business.
WHAT'S left of the really
free press in America resides
in those few small papers which
limp along without a Big Busi-
ness Indebtedness on which the
pound of flesh is collected
daily.
Such are the papers that
come to the common people for
financial sustenance. This is
the price of honesty and integ-
ritY in the reportage of news.

by-step, inexorable suspense yarns.
He ambles sometimes when he
should be moving forward, but for
the most part, Panic" is one of
those stories in which you know the
characters are ill-starred and, once
this chapter Of their lives is in mo-
ton, nothing can save them.
Once M. Hire advises Alice to ask
her lover about the deceased
woman's handbag and 1000 francs,
the end, however far away it is, is
in sight. Alice uses her undeniable
charm to WOO M. Hine into the be-
lief that she is giving up Alfred and
ultimately to lure him to the mob
that has been aroused against him.
In its picture of mob terror being
aroused, "Panic" is at It's most tell
ing. It's such a simple thing. M.
Hire is a man who keeps to himself,
does not smile and trade badinage:
He is one Of those queer charac-
tiers" almost, every neighborhood
has. When Alfred passes the word
around the M. Hire is engaged in
some sort Of witchcraft, the panic
feeling starts and is cannily nursed
to peak.
At its peak when the terror is
aroused to the full, Panic" almost,
If not mite let's ITS audiences down
When the horror should be surging
forward, Panic" begins to look like
something staged too artfully. M.
Ruvivier, perhaps because he once
worked for M-G-M, has felt called
upon to hire what seems like half
the population Of Paris and, what's
more, he has made them act less
like an angry mob than like thou
sands Of people standing where they
were told to be paid for a days
work.
This does not keep Panic" from
being dramatic, but 1t keeps it from
being realistically so.
There is one other minor COM
plaint. Panic" either was filmed
in circumstances of extreme econ
omy with little artificial lighting, or
it was done carelessly. More than
one sequence turns from bright
day to night and back again, in a
few minutes of action. 1t may not
be something to complain about,
but 1t certainly is confusing.

belongs principally to these three.
Mile. Romance plays Alice, young
lady SO much in love she has just
served a bit of time for a robbery
to shield her Alfred. M. Bernard
is Alfred and M. Simon is the M.
Hire of the novels title. Alfred,
the cheerful one, is well liked by
the neighbors who know nothing of
his past. M. Hire, the grim one, is
not liked at all by the neighbors
who know nothing of his past,
either.
1t soon develops that Alfred is
the man who has committed the
murder of harmless spinster,
throwing the neighborhood into a
turmoil. Alice loves Alfred enough
to try to help him and M. Hire turns
out to love Alice enough to fall into
their trap.
Their plot-and you can see 1t
coming for a long time-is to turn
the neighborhood against M. Hire,
to let mob violence convict an in
nocent man and free a murderer.
This takes a lot of doing, in
,luding considerable Haunting Of
Miss Romance's charms, which is
all right. 1t also permits M. Du-

Simenon called LES Fiancialles de
M. Hire" the story of the horror of
mob violence. He makes a more
than moderately dramatic thing of
the telling until he gets to his climax.
There, when he should be at his
most dramatic, M. Duvivier has al
lowed his picture to take on the look
of something staged, for all the
world as if he were back at M-G-M
arranging crowds in grand ball
room for The Great Waltz"
This does not make Panic" a
total loss, of course, or anything ap-
preaching it. 1t is just a petty COM
plant, probably. While M. Duvivier
is working up to a pitch, his pic
ture is, for the most part, engross-
ing. 1t has very much the look of
Partisan shops and cheap pensions
rather than of studio sets and you
almost can smell the smells of the
square where most of the action
takes place.
