11 R R PRESS TRUTHFLL, ALDEN DECLARES Simply Mirvors Life as It Is, Brooklyn Man Says “The ycllowest newspaper in the country does not order the printing of lles,” according to John Alden, editorial writer on the Brooklyn Eagle, who addressed the brother- bood of the South Congregational church last evening. It was the first meeting of the brotherhood for the season. Mr. Alden, who has been a news- paperman for 43 years, is of the old school type of newspaperman who feels that the profession of journal- ism is weakened by too much stand- ardization. He sald: “The newspa- pers, however, are not any more standardized than the schools, churches or common people.” He added that the schools ot today have become so standardized that puplls do not have to do any thinking and the teachers have no work to do. In opening his address Mr. Alden sald he wanted te Soxtradict a gen- eral impression that newspapers vol- untarily and deliberately print what is not true. “It is impressed on many minds that some atories are concocted deliberately for amuse- ment,” he sald. “The yellowest news- paper in the country does not order the printing of lles. The difference between a yellow newspaper and a’ conservative paper is that one exer- cises a llttls more care than the other. It must be remembered that a newspaper is made -up within a few hours and that all the efforts of the editor are to Keep out untrue statements.” a Speaking of the standardizatioh of newspapers, he sald they have im- proved through this eondition in no far as they have a wider range of information, but he felt they had lost their individuality. “Standardization 1s the curse of newspapers today,” he continued. “The plans of the Creator do not fit in with standardization ‘at all. He didn't make man either spiritually or intellectually with interchangea- ble parts. The efforts of surgeons,; psycho-analysta and orthodoxies to correct the Inadvertencles of the Creator have been unsuccessful.” ‘When Mr. Alden, at 22 years of age and just out of college, applied to the mahaging editor of a New York newspaper for a position he was given the following answer: i you save a pull anywhere whereby you can become an apprentice to al| stone mason, a carpenter or a brick | layer, use it. You'll make more money, live a better life and have more comfort.” He said he had lived to realize the truth of this advice.| He told mafly amusing stories Mi olden days on Park:Row. “When it | was Park Row” and of the now ob-| wolete hard drinking, poker playing, fielion writing newspaperman. Referring to the development of cooperation between the churches and the newspapers he said: “The | church and clergymen are closer to | {he newgpapers today than they ever were before. The papers are giving | more attention to cliurch matterand | more attention to spiritual matters than (jey did a few years ago, | “rhe readers are interested n church news and that interest is growing.

He sald he didn’t Xnow, but 1f this was true the Mother Goose story cf “Tom, the Piper's Son™ was not a good story for children to read. “In the first place it makes hero out of a thief and it is not good for children to yead about stealing,” he sald. Also jt is about a pig, and pigs are rot Yhe Lest things to write about. Tur- thermore, the punishment did not fit the er The pig, the innocent sufforcr, was killed and eaten and Tom was just beaten. “Crime is not unduly exploited, “Do you is mands. Publicity Theips crime. A lot of divorces are avold- ed by publicity.” Mr. Alden trled to clear up some misconceptions of newspapers and news values which were included in threo questions asked him. Ouwe man seemed to feel that newspapers made # hero out of Gerald Chap- man. A minister shad read a story which did not meet the idealism of fhe pulpit and he, charged New Britain papers with publishing facts which were “revolting.” A business man thought there was jealousy be- tween newspapermen. it Mr. Alden said he did not know of pany newspapers which had made & hero out of Chapman, but that the story was handled in accordance \ith the news value and reader in- terest. Referring to the feeling of Scalousy among newspapermen he told how beginners in the newspaper field often would fail to make good it it were not for the assistance they are glven by men on opposition papers. Newspapermen he said “are aiways willing to work together and help one another.” Picturing Hum Commenting on the so-called “re- voiting” facts ha sald, “Whatever pictures human life has got to plc- ure the bad as well as the good. t you exaggerate the light you do ot do justice to the shadows; it you xaggerate the shaddwe you do not o just to the light. It is the unction of a newspaper to tell what s, not what ought to be “Even in the Bible you find very kraphic descriptions of some de- orallzing crimes. Newspapers to- ay must produce (hings so graphl- pally that the original cave man vould understand them." Mr. Alden has been on the Brook- vn Eagle for the past 24 years, for o years before that he was on New rk newspapers. He has been 8 ashington correspondent and work on Albany papers, having been & wspaperman for 43 years.

CITY OF ROME REGALLED MESSAGE Operator Testiies Efort Was Made to Cancel First One Boston, Oct, 17 (P=-The gteamer message relative to the ramming of the submarine B-51 and the loss of 33 llves off Block Island on Septem. ber 26, Whitcomb P. Ourle, radio operator for the Tropical Radio company, testified here today before the naval inquiry board investigating the disaster. The witness, who intercepted the first message sent out by the City of Rome following the disaster, testi- fled he immediately notified the Bos- ton navy yard operator that the 8-51 ‘was in distress, The commandant of the navy yard, he testified, radioed through his station, to the City of Rome, and added: “Have you rammed 8-517 exact position and detalls,” This message, Ourle sald, was sent out by the navy yard operator at 2:40 a. m, daylight saving time, on September 26, Ourle sald that the City of Rome's reply to the navy's message was: “Have rammed 8-51 at 10:24 p. m. Saved D, Kile, A. Geler and M, Lota. Nothing else could be found. Pro- ceeding to Boston. Expect to arrive 2 p. m." The witness said that the first message from the City of Rome at 2:08 a. m. daylight time, read: e rammed and sank 8-51 Block Tsland.” This message was elgned “KQZ" the City of Rome's call, he added. Ourle testified that some time be- tween 2:08 a. m. and 8 a. m. soon after the navy yard radioed the steamer, the City of Rome sent him this message: “Cancel first message. Captain| Diehl has no information to give you.” The witness sald that all the messages sent to and from the steamer were on the 60 meter wave length, the commerclal and distress call wave. Give oft Diver Testified James 1. Ingram, a navy diver of 10 years' experience, testified that the City of Rome cut a seven foot hole in the submarine's port side. He was the first diver to descend to the submarine following the dis- aster and that his first move when he reached the wreck was to inspect the deck hatches. All of them, ex- cepting the eonning tower hatch, were closed, .he said, He added that during this Inspection he stamped on the submarine's deck and made ag much nolse as he could to attract the attentlon of those alive inside if theer ‘were any. No replies was were made, he said. Explaining how the crash ocgur- red, Ingraham sald: “My examination ‘of the hull of the subrflarine showed me that the S-51 and the ity of Rome were steaming along the same course, | The statemer running faster than the submarine. The §-51 started to fswing starboard and before she was well started, the City of Rome swung | hard starboard and struck her a | siapping blow.” | Ingram’s other testimony rclated | to his diving work on the 8-51 dur- ing the rescuc oberations.

William C. Wilson, another navy diver, and the last witness of the day, corroborated much of Ingram's testimony.

MEN PRIVILEGED 13 Students at Wesleyan _Included Among Those Given Unlimited Rights of Absence. Middletown, Oct. 17 (P —Thirteen Connecticut men are among those students at Wesleyan university who have been granted the privilege of taking an uniimited number of ab- sences from classes according to the new scholarship rules which have recently put into effect at the in- stitution. These men rank scholasti- cally in the three scholarship groups to which this privilege has been ac- corded. They are as follows: Eugene J. Dowling, Staddle ,HUL Middlebury; Albert S. Smith, 180 true to the skepticlsm they displayed throughout the security negottations, today warned the German public not to tndulge in too great optimism regarding the value of the under- standing reached at Locarno. The Kreuz Zetlung, for example, sald that the Germans had every reason to regard the Locarno agree- ment with distrust, especlally since there was “no definlte and binding arrangements regarding the Rhine- land question.” The Berliner Tageblatt, republican organ, on the other hand, says that marked progress was made at Lo« carno and the German delegation de serves credit for its achlevements. It succeeded in abolishing a one- sided guarantee which eliminated Germany from the eastern arbitra- tion treaties, and it further insured a cortain speclal position in regard to Article 16 of the League of Na- tions covenant. (This is the article binding mem- bers of the league to concerted ac- tion against an aggressor state and permitting the use of their terri- {ory for the transportation of armed forces sent against such an aggres-| sor. The agreement reached at Lo- carno provides that, upgn Germany entering the league, allowance shall be made for her special position &s a partially disarmed natfon in ful- filling the provisions of the article.) Vorwaerts, socalist organ, belleves that the Locarno agreement m: prove to be a turning point in hi tory.
