Directors Re-elected.
NEW YORK, April 20. Members of
the Associated Press met at the Waldorf-Astoria
hotel here today and re
elected five directors, four advisory
boards and auditing and nominating
committees. The five directors re
elected are:
Frank B. Noyes. Washington Star;
W. L. McLean. Philadelphia Bulletin;
Adolph S. Ochs, New York Times;
A. C. Weiss, Duluth Herald and John
It. Rathom, Providence Journal.
At a luncheon in connection with
the meeting. President Frank B. Noyes
of the Washington Star, proposed a
toast to President Wilson, saying: "in
offering a toast, the formal wish for
'health,' is usually of little signifi
cance. With us this year in the only
toast it is our custom to offer, the
case is profoundly different for, very
earnestly, very hopefully and very sin
cerely we drink to the health, the full
restored health of the president of the
United States.
"livery season of the year is an open
season for the critics of the Asso
ciated Press," said Mr. Noyes, begin
ning' his address.
'We are accustomed, through long
experience, to the railings against our
service of the uninformed, the no
toriety seeker and the common or
garden liar who charges bias or sup

ciated Press.
Truthful Record Sole Aim.
"Every newspaper man, every in
formed person, knows how prepos
terously untrue these charges are
whoever may make them. To you
I need not explain that our very or
ganization was in response to the de
mand of the newspapers that their
nows service should be owned and
controlled by themselves and them
eolvcs alone, tbat it should be their
servant and not their master, that
it should give an adequate and truth
ful record of the world's happenings,
free from bias and from opinion or
propaganda. - While laying no claUu
to inerrancy, our service has been
singularly successful in attaining the
objocts we ought and the line 'By
Associated. Press' has become a hall
mark of accuracy, whether the event
recorded is the election of a president,
the signing of an armistice, a decision
of the supreme court or the death of
the pope. . . .
"While at all times this open sea
Bon continues, every four years
comes a special period of tribulation.
When the presidential campaign rolls
around every candidate for the nom
ination and the resulting presidential
candidates and every manager of
every such candidate finds clear evi
dence in our reports of bias against
every candidate mentioned until
after the election and then all agree
that the Associated Press has been
conspicuously fair. This has been
our experience in the past and there
is every indication that the present
campaign will be no exception. .
Tio Boost 'or Anybody.
"I say for this, for there is a meas
ure of truth in the charge, for on
the theory that 'he who is not for
us is against us,' the Associated Press
is against every candidate, for it sure
ly is not for any one of them."
Mr. Noyes explained that while
every one of the candidates will have
the supi'ji " individual members,
the Asso . : ' s will continue se
renely i hs to the outcome
of the conventions and
election. - Itself with sup
plying its .. . s with the news as
it happens, playing no favorites and
punishing no enemies.
"The report of the Associated Press
does not grow or simply come into
being without effort," continued Mr.
Noyes. "Every line, every word, is
the product of an individual worker
of whom hundreds toil and adventure
dally to supply a fair picture of the
world's happenings, every one of you
know that at uottom these charges
of bias are charges against, our
anonymous workers, who, if we are
betrayed, are the betrayers; who, if
these charges are true, are recreant
to the trust we have placed in them.

"You know them; you know them

that these men are the salt of the

neither your opli'-n nor mine can
be fitly expressod, , n an occasion of
this sort, of the ignoramuses, the
blatherskites or the liars who defame
them."

"Speaking: of inventions -the man who invented
interest was no slouch."
Most small retailers do not fully realize the cost
to them of slow-selling: goods.
"Turnover" and "overhead" are vagoie terms to
the very man whose shelves are filled with lodgers.'
This is not true of the big stores. Quick turn
over is probably seen in its perfection in Boston,
where building restrictions have forced on the
stores the intense cultivation of floor space.
Goods in active demand "turn" fast.
Goods advertised into popular demand make
possible a rapid Sell, Reorder, and Sell with the

For thb Church-s Work at Home, a score of iteoas
com under this head. Consider only on. Five and a
half million people in the United States cannot even
read end write the English language. Who is to carry
forward this vast work of Americanization if the Church
does not?
For Hospitals and Homes. Every year thousands
of men end women seriously ill are turned away from
Church hospitals because of laejc of room. The children's
homes are compelled to tarn away more children than
they can receive.
For Religious Training. At least 12,000,000 children
nd young people under 25 years of age are enteringAmeri
can life without any religious training at all. Remembering
the faith of Washington and Lincoln, do yon think that
America will continue to produce , Washington and Lin
col ns if Faith dies out of the hearts of its youth?
For Higher Education Of the 450,000 American
students in institutions of higher grade, one-half are in
institutions founded and supported by the Churches.
Many of these institutions have had no great endow
ment campaigns, but their needs are just as pressing as
the needs of larger schools; and you have only to read
their list of alumni and alumnae to measure the value
of their contribution to America.
FOR THB CHURCH'S WORK ABROAD. Influenza came
first from the Orient thirty years ago; nearly all plagues
are Oriental plagues. So long as China has only one phy
sician to every 400,000 people the Orient will continue to
be a menace. So long as one-third of the babies o( India
die before their second year our own babies are not safe.
A Christian doctor or teacher sent abroad is working for
America as truly as though he worked at home.
