It operates day and night, 365 days each year and gives to the American people an interchange of news events and new ideas far superior to that possessed by any other people. No nook nor cranny of the globe is outside the field of this organization. It has 1200 member newspapers, each of which cooperates to see that the others are given news of the worthwhile happenings in its vicinity. These efforts are supplemented by the bureaus of the association itself. There are seventy such stations in this country and each of the capitals of Europe is the seat of another. At Pekin and Tokyo in the Far East; at Manila and Honolulu in the Pacific possessions of the United States; in Mexico City, Havana, the chief cities of Central America and South America, through- out the colonies of empires and in the islands of the seven seas are men charged to watch for news happenings and rush accounts of them by wire, cable, radio or what other means may be available to the nearest bureau of The Associated Press. 3 Dvsion Musemarzs nat.

And all of this is done without a taint of commercialism, bias, partisanship or selfish interest. The Associated Press is not a money making institution. It has no capital stock, declares no dividends and does not sell its output. The expense is met by weekly assess- ments against the members, proportioned to the size of the report which goes to them, the extent of the territory which they serve and the cost of moving the news over the wires. The membership is made up of various political, economic and religious advocacies. It is a natural result of this condition that anything which The Associated Press handles on controversial subjects is handled with as much impartiality as human thought can engineer. Facts are told for their own worth. No editorial comment of i other interpretative phrases are injected into any news story and the reader of the daily newspaper is, 8o far as The Associated Press is concerned, left to form his own con- clusions on the worth or significance of what he has read in the news columns under the label “By The A.
