Barnes was one of the men who steered Great Britain through the war as a member of the British War Cabinet of Five. He succeeded Arthur Henderson as the representative of Labor in the Cabinet. Mr. Barnes was a member of the British delegation to the Paris Peace Conference. He enjoys today the confidence of the govern- ment in power and also the Labor Party and is regarded as the balance wheel of conflicting interests in England. His forceful utterances have won world-wide attention. He will truly reflect the thoughts of the British people and furnish timely eomment and interpretation on the delicate problems just now before the ‘American and British public. eo Lawrence Perry Rene Viviani is the man best known to Americans among the statesmen who are now shaping the destinies of France. It was Viviani who domi pated the Geneva meeting of the League of Nations. His power in France is constantly growing. To him France looks for guidance in her reconstruction difficulties and struggles. M. Viviani came in contact with the heart of America when as head of the French War Mission he brought Marshal Joffre to the United States in the historic days of 1917, William Bird Maximilian Harden 7 fs the only man whose pen the Kaiser himself could not stop. Throughout the war, he fearlessly assailed the militarists of Ger- many and since the revolution he has unhesitatingly pointed out weaknesses and supported the liberal policies of the new regime. His writings have been widely quoted in America and throughout the world. He has a keen understanding of international affairs and writes in a simple and direct style that has won him a big following ottside as well as inside his native country. His writ- fngs can be counted upon weekly as the authoritative expression of the thought ef new Germany, Clara Savage For fourteen years the star reporter of The Asso- ciated Press covering every big story from the Thaw trial to the western battlefront and writ- ing the “leads” on most of the political conven- tions in recent years will continue to cover news developments either at Marion or Washington for the Post-Intelligencer readers. His travels with Roosevelt*and Taft have equipped him with an extraordinary acquaintance with the men in the Republican party who will be the main sources of news in the coming months. He is one of the clearest and most graphic writers in American journalism. Elizabeth Miner King who has covered Congress at Washington for the New York Evening Post is generally regarded as one of the ablest political reporters in America A prominent politician recently said: “She is the only woman I know who understands and writes of national politics as well as a man.” Yet her viewpoint is that of a woman, and it will be the woman’s viewpoint on national affairs which will be stressed in her dispatches to the Post-Intelli- gencer. One of the ablest sporting writers in America and one of the best posted on all varieties of profes- sional sport from prize-fighting to baseball He is a news-getter. He writes sporting news in a style that is readable and distinctive, covering the field of professional sport with a background of gossip and personality to suit Post-Intelligencer readers. Lawrence Perry dispatches are distinct- ive because he lives in the atmosphere of sports all the year around. He gets the intimate touch that is needed to make readers feel they are get- ting the real background of the sporting events, whether it is the turf, or the diamond, or the prize ring that he is writing about. Walter Camp Not merely an authority on football, but an all round writer. Mr. Camp writes of track athletics, basketball, wrestling, tennis, baseball, golf and rowing. His timely dispatches will include the latest developments in college athletics, whether they be changes in the football rules or the in- roads which the professionals have made into amateur sport. Mr. Camp’s service to the Post-In- telligencer will probably have a tendency to make him more familiar with the good ahowings of our Western teams and athletes, ; A writer who is winning fame for his clear-head- ed, simply-written and intelligible dispatches from Europe’s turmoil. His cablegrams give a broad view of, the whole European situation, analyzing from an American viewpoint the many-sided diplomacy of Europe and picturing conditions on the other side of the water with an accuracy and sense of proportion that make his cables stand out among all competitors. He is an American newspaper man who talks the languages of the continent with fluency and is able, therefore, to penetrate the European mind and convey to the Post-Intelligencer readers a true notion of what is really going on in the European world. Harden Colfax This is a symposium of stories affecting the three big groups who read the Post-Intelligencer—the wage-earners, the farmers and the mercantile or business class. News dispatches will be sent, giv- ing the latest developments in the struggle be- tween the champions of the “open” and “closed” shops, and other happenings in the industrial world; analyzing the vital occurrences in the field of agriculture with particular attention to the farm organizations, and giving a survey of bank- ing and business conditions and manufacturing and production problems generally.
