FREE PRESS HELD ROCK OF LIBERTY New York Publisher Tells| Advertisers It Carries Hope Above Congress. By the Associated Press. WHITE SULPHUR SPRINGS, W. Va., May 1.—Henry R. Luce of Time and Fortune magazines, told the American Association of Advertising Agencies yesterday that the press of the country was one of the strongest bulwarks against dictatorship. ‘The New York publisher declared: “There’s more hope in the press today than in Congress or the edu- cational system or motion pictures or in literatures in turning back the darkness of dictatorship and undemo- cratic practices * * * which stifle the press. “Never was an informative, signifi- cant, truthful press more important than today.” He continued: “What the public wants is what it needs. It is the will of the people that no control be imposed on the publisher in giving it enlightenment and entertainment.” Retiring Chairman Paul Cornell told | the association that advertising was “moving with humanity toward a higher destiny.” He described the work of advertising | men as a “highly necessary job of | moving goods,” and added that they “are sensitive to the mood and cur- | rents of their time and have delicate spiritual antennae which tell in terms of mass psychology in what direction clients may move profitably.” The convention heard Prof. Ray- mond Moley of Columbia University declare earlier today that advertis- ing's task “Is to restore the broken fragments of public belief in the in- tegrity of business * * *.” “Your job is to see that American business is believed,” he said, “be- cause when it is believed, politicians are going to praise, foster and encour- age it, not use it as a whipping boy to direct attention from the mistakes of politiciane and of Government.” Bridge Has Pawn Shop. SAN FRANCISCO (#).—The giant Ban Prancisco-Oakland Bay Bridge finds itself involuntarily in the pawn- thop business. Forgetful motorists who drive up to the toll gates without money have deposited a wide assort- ment of watches. tiepins, spotlights and spare tires.

McNelr, chief of the Bureau of Accounts, was disbursing officer for the peace mission. He sailed with its members, Secretary of State Lansing, Henry White, Col. Edward M. House and Gen. Tasker H. Bliss, in November, 1918, just after the armistice was signed and resided with them in Paris for a year. Almost every ruler of a nation involved in the World War was a visitor in Paris that year. McNeir saw all of them except former King | Alfonso of Spain and the late King | George V of England. “We lived at the Crillon Hotel " he recalled. “Those were very busy days. I had probably only three days' leave during the entire period. Then I went over to London for a change.” McNeir thought back over his long service—he joined the State Depart- ment in 1881 when James G. Blaine was Secretary—and decided the big- gest event of his experience was the signing of the Treaty of Versailles.

Secretary Hull paid tribute yester- day to McNeir in farewell ceremonies attended by about 100 State Depart- ment employes. The Secretary pre- sented the accounts chief with a silver service, the gift of the depart- ment, carrying an engraved tribute on the bowl. Workers in McNeir's own division also made farewell gifts. Mrs. McNeir received a bouquet of Toses. “You have been here longer,” retary Hull said, “than some of us have been alive. I desire to give expression of my own recognition of the loyalty to the department and the fidelity to trust which have characterized your conduct of the responsible positions you have oc- Sec- | cupied.” McNeir was born here in 1864 and 1879 and on May 1, 1881, became a | temporary clerk in the State De- partment. The McNeirs reside at 1844 Monroe street. “We will keep our residence | here and do some traveling,” McNeir | said. “That is, after I get my bear- ings.” Service Orders ARMY. Mankowich, First Lieut.

WOLFGANG, Austria, May 1.— A report that the Duke of Windsor and his bride would honeymoon at Count Paul Muenster's Wasserleonburg castle near the Yugoslav-Italian-Aus- trian frontier was current here today. It was thought they would remain there several months, amid the Alpine beauties of a Southern Austrian province. The 40-room castle, a vast pile of gray masonry, stands near Arnoldstein, Carinthia. The indications were the former British monarch would not go there before his marriage to Mrs. Wallis Warfield S8impson, for whose love he quit the throne. Divorce Final Soon.
