The Times has suc- ceeded under the slogan “All the News That Is Fit to Print” a policy which 1t adofped because of the djametrically opposite attityde that was being taken by a number of others who believed that their methods were the only ones that would bring success. Mr. Ochs hag bad long experienee in the newspgper business. He was no noviee when he took evur his New York Times. He had been gradually going up the ladder and in each apd every instance he left good impressions among newspaper readers.
