The Washington Evening Star
is truly a great newspaper. It's
standards are incompatible. It's
care for the welfare Of its en-

times kept in mind the fact that
q newspaper holds as q great trust
the right Of these people of the
United States to know what is
going on at all levels-national,
State. city, communicated in
the whole world.
Those who have been respon-
sible for guiding the affairs of The

Yesterday while browsing
among musty old files of the
Richmond Dispatch (Which be-
came the Times-Dispatch in
1909, I came across an interest
Ing item In Volume 3, No. 352,
dated December II. 1852. This
item was tucked away among
stories Of life in Richmond and
dispatches from correspondents in
foreign capitals. It said, and
quote:
I'VE are glad to welcome into
our galaxy a new Star which rose
yesterday evening above the north
bank Of the Potomac.
MAY this Star rise rapidly to
its zenith and remain there as a
beacon to guide the press of the
Nation into the way of truth"
Albeit the Dispatch was then
but three years old. it had OBJ
viously acquired ahnormally ac-
curate powers Of prophecy, but
doubt that our predecessors in Of
flee could possibly have guessed
how fully the heirs, assigns and
successors of Captain Tate would
bear out this early prediction.
Certainly they would take pride
in The Star of today, which has
become a living monument to
Tate, Wallace. Noyes, Adams, and
the incumbent house of Kauff-
mann.
Permit me. on behalf of your
elder brother in the field of jour-
nalism, to offer our heartiest con-
gratulations on the accomplish
ments Of your first 100 years OF
growth and leadership and to
welcome you into this group of
centenarians who strive. in spite
of their age. to retain youthful
point Of view.

Nations truly great independent
It is a paper with a
great tradition, with an abiding
sense Of duty. with unquestioned
civic pride and responsibility, and
with abundance of character.
The Star. too, has demon
strated its wisdom in its selection
and nurturing Of those talented
men and women who have con-
tributed to your record and given
to this character. 1t is
no coincidence. but confirmation
of your principles, ideals and pol

I should like to add my con-
gratulations on the Tooth ami

May extend congratulations on
the Tooth anniversary of The Eve
ming Star. This is, indeed, a great
record and there are not many in
stitutions of any kind that can
claim such continuity and such a.
record of service as you have pro-
vided. know that you have
friends all over thel
world who join me in extending
congratulations and our very best
wishes for the next 100 years.
There is an old saying that theI
first 10O years are the hardest, and
everything ought to be clear sailing
from here on. This. however. is a
matter on which I have some con-
victions that are quite different.
We finished our first 100 years IN
1929 and the next few years were
tough indeed. I rather have a.
hunch that we go on meeting in
creasingly complex problems as
time goes on; but, Of course, Il
hope that I am completely wrong

The Star is an exemplar OF
orderly and responsible journal

coloration or bias and The Stars
editorials are fair and rational.
The Frank B. Noyes, as pub
Usher Of The Star and president
of The Associated Press, was 9

The Star has never pandered to
any group or class but has re-
mained true to its illustrious tradi-
tions with a fidelity Of which il
can be justly proud.

salute your past accomplishments
and express our faith that The

From my heart comes the most
genuine and sincere congratula-
tionS to The Washington Star on
100 years Of public service. To me
The Star is just as much q part OF
the Nations Capital as the White
House. the Washington Monu-
ment or the Capitol Building itself
It symbolizes Washington.
It is something to have given
Ia century Of distinguished serv-
ice to Nation and community. II
has been my good fortune to know
over the years, a good many OF
those who have made The Star
recognized throughout the news
paper world for integrity, fairness
and decency.
ROY A. ROBERTS,
President,
The Kansas City Star.
I never think of The Washing
ton Star without getting a great
lift, because The Star always in
my mind has stood for courage
and determination.
The story has been frequently
related about how, after the Civil
War. all the doubters in Washing
ton thought that the city would
speedily revert to its former con-
|dition Of being a mud hole. and
they saw no future for it. But
not the crowd that bought out
the old paper and started 1t again
on borrowed money!
That took courage Of various
kinds. And ever since the Civil
War, The Star has grown, justify
ing the faith of Frank Noyes'
father and other early founders.
like to go to Washington because
The Star is published there. It's
advanced In circulation and ad-
|vertising has always been an in
|spiration.
