From The Evening Mail of Yesterday As owners of the majority bonds of The Evening Mail, having no concern directly or indirectly with the stock of the corporation or its financing, we have assumed responsibility for the conduct of the paper. The fa sage in our patriotism and purposes indi- by the assent of Alien Property Custodian A. Stieche! Palmer to our control neaks for itself. As a guarantee to the community of the complete sepa- ration of the present management from the past, it i beyond any pledge that we as individuals could The further indorsement of such splendid Ameri- cans as Col. Roosevelt, Gov. Whitman, Attorney- General Merton E, Lewis, Nathan Straus, Norman FE. Mack and many others, gives increased emphasis to the confidence of the Government officials in the new management of the paper. ‘The Evening Mail has lived in this community nearly three-quarters of a century. During that long time it has served the city with unselfish devotion to its best interests, and through its civic policies has attached to itself thousands of our best citizens, If it had voice to express its feelings, we are sure none could be louder in denunciation of the transactions for which the Government has arrested Dr. Rumely, the former manager of the corporation and the named owner of its stock. The Government does not charge misuse of The Mail’s columns since our entrance into the war. It distinctly states that it has no complaint to make on that ‘score. ‘The fe is that the funds with which Dr. Rumely purchased the stock of the paper three and a half years ago came from Dr. Albert, the German fiscal agent. Those funds were transferred in such an in- direct way and through so many channels that it would have been marvellous had the bondholders of The Evening Mail been able to trace their source. all, the power of our Government was needed to do Even with such power, the task was long-con- peu and most difficult. It has only recently been completed, after months of investigation. With the action of the Government The Evening Mail has passed into our absolute control, as owners of a substantial majority of the company’s bonds. We propose that The Evening Mail shall be second to no newspaper in the country in its loyal and patri- otic support of the righteous war our Government is waging. HENRY L. STODDARD. PAUL BLOCK.
