NEWSPAPERS GIVEN
CREDIT FOR WAR
WORK GENERALLY
New York.—Louis Wiley, business
manager of the New York Times, in
an address in this city the other day,
paid a striking tribute to the incor
ruptibilitp of the press of the United
States of America. Mr. Wiley said, in
part!
"After the breaking out of the war
in 1914 a fund aggregating about $35,
000,000 was supplied by German
agents and sympathizers for the pro
motion of German espionage and the
spread of German propaganda in the
United States. Some of this money
came from the Imperial German treas
ury. Other millions were contributed
by persons of German birth, descent
and sympathies living ill the United
States. The expenditure of this enor
mous sum, apparently, was directed
from the German embassy in Wash
ington for the purpose of influencing
public opinion in the United States.
The design was to use the money for
hampering ammunition manufacture,
the destruction of munitions and food
supplies for the allies, the sinking of
vessels carrying munitions, to«.corrupt
public officials, to bribe or establish
newspapers and magazines, and in
many other ways to turn the course of
events into a channel favorable to
Germany.
"Out OT tne »oo,uuu,uuu, Uie cuict ui
the United States secret service has
testified in the investigation conduct
ed by the United States senate about
two million dollars was expended in
art efOrt to bribe, influence or buy the
support of the American prflss. How
great a failure resulted, all the world
knows. So far as American newspa
pers are concerned, such an effort, in
polving the loyalty of the American
press, at any time, will utterly fail.
"German efficiency, so highly prals
ed for years, failed to take into ac
count the heart and spirit of Ameri
can newspaper men, their love of fair
ness and justice, their devotion to all
that our country stands for, their hat
red of dishonor. It based its belief on
the power of money, on greed, sel
fishness and sordidness. Not a single
American newspaper of importance
was corrupted ; not an editor of stand
:ng was defiled or seduced.
“Americans hold up their heads with
pride because of the complete evi
dence of the probity and honesty of
the American newspapers and their
loyalty to high standards before the
United States entered the war, and
their absolutely fealty to their nation
after Germany became our Open ene
my. The great power which tried to
dominate the world failed as utterly
in its offort to influence the Ameri
can press as it did in its largest am
bition.”
When the United States entered the
war, said Mr. Wiley, the newspapers
took up the work of their gopernment
patriotically and thoroughly. Theirs
was the educational campaign which
acquainted the people generally with
the menace of Germau"militarism and
the purpose of the United States to
rid the world of it. Theirs was the
influence, he said, which brought
about the sacrifice entailed, by the
, requests of the food administration,
| in compliance with which millions
cheerfully restricted their consump
| tion of food in very large measure.
TheirB#was the sacrifice, Mr. Wiley
declared, when the war board rekuest
ed that the number of pages be re
stricted in order to save paper, re
gardless of the pressure of news and
the necessary curtailment of advestis
ing space. Theirs was the task of
giving greatest publicity to the mes
sages, notes and addresses of the
president; theirs the task of giving
#>ouse-to-house publicity to Liberty
loans, subscription campaigns of the
Red Cross, the Y. M. C. A., and a
score' of committees organized to help
‘hose who were suffering because of
the war.
The newspapers of Germany, con
tinued the speaker, helped build the
German system of military domina
tion, while the liberties of the Ameri
can people were conserved by “311 in
dependent and untrammeled news
service."
$69.00 BONUS TO BE .
. . PAID TO SOLDIERS
Section 1406 of the Revenue Act ap
proved February 24, 1919 authorizes
'■he payment of a bonus of $60 00 to
officers, soldiers, field clerks and
nursps of the Army upon honorable
separation from active, service by dis
charge, resignation or otherwise.
This bonus is not payable to the
heirs or reoresentatives of any de
ceased soldier.
Those who are discharged here
after will receive this bonus oil the
same roll or voucher upon which they
are paid their final pay.
Those who have been discharged
and have received their final pay
without the $60.00 bonus, should
write a letter to the Zone Finance Of
'jeer, Lemon Building, Washington,
D. C„ stating their service since
April 6, 1917, the date of last dis
charge and their present address to
which thy desire their bonus checks
*o be sent and enclosing with this
letter their discharge certificate or
military order for discharge and both,
if both were issued.
Upon the receipt bf the Zone Fin;
ance Officer, Washington, D. C., of,
this information and the soldier’s dis j
charge certificate this officer will!
cause checks to be drawn and mailed
to the claimants in the order in
which their claims were received bf
him. The discharge certificate will be
returned to the soldier with the
check.
It is estimated that at least one I
million and a quarter persons have]
been discharged from the service who]
are entitled to the benefits of this
Act and while payments will be madej
as expeditiously as practicable, it will
lanifestly take considerable time to
write and mail this many checks.
[ THAT MORNING LAMENESS
| . ■ -
If you are lame every morning, and
suffer urinary ills, there must be a
cause. Often it’s weak kidneys. To
strengthen the weakened kidneys and
avert more serious trouble, use Doan’s
Kidney Pills. You can rely on the fol
low.ing testimony.
Mrs. L. M. Woodworth, 903 Alvord
St.. The Dalles, Ore., says: “I had
been subject to backache and Uisor
dered kidneys for five years. Final
ly I had such a terrible spell of
backache that I thought I would die.
Mornings when I got up my back was
so weak and sore I could hardly get
out of bed. I tried different medi
cines with no relief, until I finally
used Doan’s Kidney Pills. Two box
es stopped the backache and made me
feel as strong as ever.”
