The case this morning hinged about the contention that nava] aviators are bound by the regulations promulgated by the Department of Commerce and which governs civil flving, three of which the young naval aviator is eharged in the specifications with having violated. The accused through his counsel, Thomas William- son of Edwardsville, 111, his father, and Capt. Field Harris, Marine Corps, vigorously contended that the airman was not bound by these regulations while Judge Advocate Potter main- tained through his evidence that he was.

Fairfield, director of ship movements, office of the chief of operation: vy Department, and Lieut. Comdr. D. Watson, executive officer of the Nava Air Station. Capt. Potter put Mr. Croghan on the stand to prove that the air com- merce regulations had been widely disseminated through the press and also through the War and Navy De- partments. Capt. Fairfield testified that no one but the Secretary of the Nayy could give a pilot authority to violate naval low flving regulations and no one in the department could authorize a pilot to late the com- merce regulations. In his opinion, Capt. Fairfield declared, naval pilots are bound by the air commerce reg- ulations except when engaged in mili- tary maneuvers and over areas sub ject to naval administration Comdr. Watson presented official files from the Naval Air Station show- ing the date and time of Lieut. Williamson's departure from that sta- tion on the afternoon of July 24 for Norfolk and alse giving the number of the airplanc.

Because it is what it is, the Associated Press has the confidenc of the public. And being incorrupt ble and unafraid, as as alwa intelligent and ever alert, it is a tional asset of incalculable worth." “In a word, what Mr. Bell tell is this: B use the Associated Press is made up of newspapers of all be liefs, political and religious, and is con- trolled by them, these newspaper pub- lishers would not tolerate their organ- ization in treating unfairly any public question. They insist that world events be covered upon a strict news basis, and I ask you to remember that the mission of this news association is to record the world’s daily history, not to make the news. It is you who make the news, and as you help us uncover it while it yet is live vou do your part in co-operating in the re- cording of that history. Propaganda Barred. “Too often, however, W. C. T. U. workers ask that things regarding their organization that are not news, but propaganda, or that are a repeti- tion of oft-repeated statements, be run again. If you will realize that, while the Associated Press considers the wet and dry question as an important news problem, we are hound to see news on both sides. It is not for us to editoralize on such news or to dis criminate in its handling, but to know it represents the action of thousands on either side who have their own fol- lowing and who have their right to be heard. “One of the most satisfying things an Associated Press official or editor encounters at the end of some political or partisan campaign is to have the leaders of both sides ‘You have been fair.' And that is our g sire, to be fair. Generally spe: we are succeeding in our purpo withstanding the fact that there advocates of both sides of any prob- lem who consider that unless we ar biased in their favor we are partial to the other side. ‘And because it is impartial the As- sociated Press serves its country best. Can you think of anything more harm ful to the people at large than for a news source to be in the hands of de- signing men who place a taint upon the news or color it to meet their own ends? On the other hand, will you 1zree with me that in placing before the sixty or seventy millions of peo- ple who daily read our dispatches the truth, cleanly stated, is one of the most potent influences in our countr; in safeguarding it against a destruc- tive element? 1 think vou will, for some of the greatest publishe public women and men have said as much.

This will be so because the newspapers will have provided the medium through which millions on either side fought it out to an under- standing. Agreement will not come by berating the newspaper, or by one side berating the other. It will come by a fair understanding of each side, and the newspaper will spread it to both sides. “Your Mrs. Dunkin, because she is a practical newspaper woman, has done much to turn up the interesting news of the W.

They are nevertheless prejudiced against the ‘goody goody.' They use what they get of the more desirable news, but the product is small. “Let me quote from an address by Richard V.
