Are Simply Delicions
sald editorially, on December 1, 1914:
“The present position is that the
whole world is scquainted with news
which England is not officially per
fitted to know; and the ridiculous
feature of the situation is that a very
large number of indiyiduals in these
islands know It quite well. American
newspapers bring English war news
into English newspaper offices whl(‘h‘
English newspapers are not permitted
to print, ‘
“Phe principgl purpose of censor
shin, as we understand it, is to pre
vent the publication of news which
will be of service to the enemy, IY
the enemy knows the news, its publi
cation in this country can not be of
service to them. Yet our offices are
littered with German newspapers con
taining news we are forbidden to pub
lish.
“We understand and appreciate the
rensons which may make reticence
in such a case desirable for a limit
ed period. But for how long doés the
Government propose to continue the
farce of coneealing facts from the
British public alone?” !
Under date of November 20 'T‘hei
London Dafly News and Leader !)Uh-‘
llshed the following under the head
lne, “Darkening Counsel:” 1
“Rumors of an event of very great
Inierest to the British public have
been circulating for a long time now
in this country. Very full accounts of
the event In question have now been
published In the Swedish, the Dutch,
the American and finally the German
papers.
. “There ls scarcely an important
public in the world, that is to say,
which has not now received a full re
port of the alleged occurrence, except
‘that one which is most directly af
;tert.ed by it, .
“The truth or falsehood of the re
lpnrtn is a matter on which judgment
may—and, indeed, for the moment
must—be suspended. It is Intelligi
ble that the authorities may have good
reasons for delaying the publication
of news, favorable or otherwise, until
a time when i their judgment its
pyblication will be most effective or
least prejudicial to the public’s inter
est,
“The sincere study and understand
ing of national psychology may be of
important assistance in a struggle
such as that which we are now wag
ing. But it is =surely a psychological
blunder of the first order to concenl
from the British public the news,
whether good or bad, which is the
common property of their neighbors.”
The international News Service is
not going to suppress the news the
same as the English papers do to
ploase the censorship. It is going to
print the news.
Notable "beats” scored by the Inter
national News Service In furnishing
the news of hig war events ahead of
all competitors follow, All of these
“beats” did not please the English
censors, It is not the purpose of the
International News Service to please
the Knglish censorship, but to please
the American people:
On August 25, 1914, the Interna
tional News Service sent out the
definite statement that Antwerp
would fall “within a week.” The
city was taken three davs later
by the Germans.
The capture of Ostend by the
Teutons was reported on October
17 by the International News
Service, 48 hours in advance of all
other papers. The greatest beat
of the war, in all probability, was
scored by the International News
Service in being the first to to tell
of the sinking of the British su
pordrudnouggt Audacious in No
vember, 1914, Eight hours after
the man-of-war went down off
Lough Swilly, the northernmost
g‘oint of Ireland, the International
ews Service knew of the disas
ter. It was the first to send it
out. The cable came from Paris,
reaching that city by wireless.
Two travelers on the steamer
Olympic witnessed the !oss of the
Audacious. One was a skilled Ca
nadian newspaper writer and the
other was a photogrwher. One
sent the International News Serv
ice a letter with full details of the
sinking, and the other gave to the
{ world, through the International
News Service, the first picture of
the Audacious goini down,
November 29, 1914, the Interna
tional News Service printed ex
clusively the news that Abbas
Second had been deposed as Khe- |
dive of Egypt, and that Prince
Musselr Pasha was his successor,
On December 11 the Interna
tional News Service declared
Great Britain would annex Egypt.
This was done officially on De
cember 17. |
The International News Service
was first with the news that the °
Kaiser would disavow the sinking
of the Arabic by a German sub
marine. It also gave the first news
of riots in British concentration
camps and of Zeppelin raids over
Paris in March of 1915, ‘
The first news that Italy would
go to the aid of Serbia came from
the Interngtional News Seérvice.,
The New York Times printed the
same news a day later. |

INTERNATIONAL’S BIG
BEATS CAUSE OF BANS
The British @Government Tuesday
aight lssued a statement that it had
deniéd the use of the malls and cables
to the International News Service.
Following ls the story of the facts:
NEW YORK, Oct. 10.—The
English eensors have been threat
ening for fnany months to deny
the International News Service
the privilege of the malls and ca
bles because the International
News Service did not print the
kind of news that the English de--
aired to have printed in this coun:
try. -
The International News Service
has defied the censors and de
elared its determination to print
the facts as nearly as it eould
find them without regard to Eng
lish preferences and prejudices.
The Engiish eengors tonight is
suea a 4 statement saying that the
International News Service has
been denied the malls and the
cables because it has distorted
the news. The facts of the mat
ter are that the International
News Service has been denled the
mails and eables because it has
not been willing to distort the
Rews, ’
The International News Service
hag printed many import.nt news
facts exclusively, news facts
which even the English papers did
not get until they saw them In
the American papers subscribing
to the Inetrnational News Ser
vice, and then were compelled
to copy them from the Interna
tional News Service papers. -
Among those news beats and
accurate news statements of the
International News Service was
the sinking of the Audacious, a
~ most important fact which the
| English papers were not able to
print until after it appeared in the
International News Service pa
- pers.
i There was much criticism by
the Fnglish press because the
American papers printed news
genuine news, undeniable news of
vital importance to England that
the English papers were not able
to get and not able to publish. .
The International News Service
{s an American institution, pub
lished for the service of the
American people. It gets and
prin the facts that the Amerl
can people want to read and not
the blased and distorted state
ments that the English people
want printed.
It s the intention of the Inter
national News Service to continue
printing the news, all the news,
and nothlnf but the news.
It is the intention of the mana
gers of the International News
Service to continue pr!ntlnf opin
fons and interviews criticising the
English censorship and assalling
the English- Government when
ever the acts of those Finglish in
stitutions conflict with the inter
est of the American public,
The purpose of the Internation
al News Service is to be an
American institution for the
American people and without re
gard to the threat or cajolement
of foreign nations to print the
truth and the full truth for the
information of the American pub
iic,
The action of the British cen
sor is the greatest compliment
that conld be paid to thc Inter
national News Service.
The RBritish censorship has
been a news-suppressing Institu
tion and a news-falsifying insti
“tution from the beginning of the
WAar.
The Britleh Government wants
American newspapers to print on
ly such news as will please and
assist the British Government,
The British Government wants
American newspapers to print
only distorted news or lying
news,
The International News Serv
ice will not distort the news or
falsify the news to bplease the
Blrmsh Government or anybody
else,
The International News Serv
jce loses nothing by being de
harred from the use of officlal
British- news channels, because it
is practically impossible to get
_the truth through those channels.
* The International News Service
will continue to obtain the true
news of Furopean events and its
subscribers will continue to print
the true news of European events
e apite of any and all efforts
of the Britlsh Government or the
~ Rritish censorsilp to keep them
from obtaining and from dissem
fnating the true news. °
Exclusive publication in
America of the news of the
sinking of the Britlsh dread
nought Audacious was one of the
first great beats scored in the
war by the International News
Service,
The RBritish Government for
bade the British hewspapers to
print even reports or rumors of
the ship's loss, and later denied
that the vessel had been de
stroyed at all.
Soon afterward the Interna
tional News Service obtained
and published notual photegraphs
of the destroyed vessel. An ef
fort was made by the British cen
sors to prevent American news
papers containing news or pic- .
tures of the Audacious catastro
phe from reaching the British
public, but this effort was not
ailtogether successful, and Eng
land, through the newspapers
served by the Tlnernational
News Bervice, ultimately learned
the full deta!ls of the disaster and

THE ATULANTS GEORGIAN-
the story was gerfrally ac
cepted.
A succession of news beats by
the Internatiomal Mews Service
in England followed. The In
ternational announced the deci
sion of the British Gevernment
to create a protectorate over
Egypt a week in advance of the
formal announcement.
When the British newspapers
were still telling the British pub
lic that Antwerp was impregna
ble, the Inetrnational announced
that the city must fall within
threes days. Three days later the
Germans took the city.
The International exclusively
announced to the world, through
the medium of its clients in
America, the fliglit of the French
Government to Bordeaux at a
time when the British censors
were withholding the news from
the British public 3
The Mternational News Serv
jce very early in the war sent a
special correspondent into Ger
man¥ to learn the true state of
conditions ‘there. Upon his re
turn to London he showed that
the stories of German starva
tion,. of officers being chaigped to
their guns, which had been fill
ing the British and British-fed
American press were false, and
that Geramny was in a condition
to carry on the war indefinitely.
This report returned to Eng
lJand via the United States and
caused a considerable sensation
at the time. To this correspond
ent Sir IDdward Gery, the British
Foreign Secretary, declared he
knew the correspondent’s report
to be trustworthy, but he doubt
ed the wisdom of permitting such
a report to reach the British
public.
The many news beats by the
International News flnally arous
ed a storm of protest from the
British newsparpers. London and
provincial newspapers vigorous~
ly assailed the censorship on the
gcore of withholding facte from
the British public which were
inclined to oreate a false obti
mism in England and which v/ere
reaching England anyway in
American newspapers,
Many London dailies, and such
influetinal provincial organs as
The Manchester Guardian, par
ticipated in the attack. -
Later the censorship was
somewhat more lenient in their
treatment of the British ncwspa
pers, but obstinately refused to
permit the publication of the
news of the destructicn of the
Audacious, which was the first
cause of the protest.
However, The London Sketch, a
daily pictorial, finally printed a
page of Audacious pictures, un
der the caption, “An Audacious
Page.” The fact of this caption
having been passed by the cen
sor was accepted throughout
England as absolute and final
proof that the Internatienal
News' original report was cor
rect.

The State Democratic Executive
Committee, meeting at the Kimpoall
House Wednesday to decide three
contestg in the recent primary, zeat
ed J. B. G. Logan cver Oscar Brown
in the disputed race for the Senate
from the Thirty-third District. The
contest was brought by Brown on the
charge that the Australian baliot sys- {
‘tem, ordered by the County Executive
'Committee, of which Mr. Logan was
chairman, was not used In two dis- |
tricta.
~ The subcommittee appointed for
the Coffee County centest pxpected to
meet at 4 o'clock in the afternocon.
~ *That handling the Beck-Peeples
contest decided to meet Saturday of
next week,
l It took the committee an hour to
| shake off the three primary contests
after it was already agreed to re
fer the whole business to a subcom
mittee with full authority to dispose
of the matters.
The centest between C. E. Stewart
and John Paulk, candidates for Rep
resentative from Coffee, was the first
on the list
Representative Stewart, who s
bringing the contest on.the grounds
that sufficient illegal votes wers cast
to wipe out the 17 majority his op
ponent ciaims and give him the nom
ination, showed some fear that the
State bedy would handle the case.
When the resolution referring it was
put to a vote there was not a dis
senting voice, and Representaitve
Stewart appeared as well pleased
with the result as anybody in the
roum.
Jenmings Quincay, of Ocilla, repre
senting Mr. Paulk, made the point
that the contest did not come under

ez Cooper @bjects.
~ John R’ Cooper, of Macon, repre
senting Mr, Stewart, interposed the
‘objection to dismissal. He asgerted
the contest had been properly filed
'befnre the convention and forwarded
‘tn the executive committee when ac
‘tion was not taken in Macon.
It appeared the other two contests
would become involved in the discus
sion which followed, although the
meeting was acting on the resolution
by T. E. Massengale, of Warren, to
give a subcommittee the authority to
pasa on it.
Judge J. J. Flynt, of Griffin, State
chairman, waited rather patiently for
the committee to get to the question
pefore the body, but it seemed to be
drifting further away. An apportu
nity presented itself just at this point
and he abbrcvia‘ed the proceedings
by announcing that he would soon
strip the discussion down to the bare
facts and put the question. The dis
cussion subsided. The motion was
carried.
The resolution had been previously
amended, upon motion of Albert
Howell, of Fulton, providing for a
|Sf*parte commite for each district.
Mr. Howell made the point that a
single committee might not get
through struggling with the problems
involved in each contest in time for
the November election. J. W. Arnold,
of Monroe, had fortified himgelf
against such a predieament by an
amendment to the original resolution
providing that the names of both
candidates in each contest should be
put on the ticket in the genera) elec
tion. The committee thought better
of dividing the work, and the Arnold
amendment became unnecessary.
The committees were:

Beck-Peeples Contest.
‘ The contest between E. H. Beck
‘and- L. F. Peeples for theé senatorial
\nomination from the Forty-third Dis
trict came in for some little discus
sion before the resolution referring it
was passed. There were only 66 votes
difference between the two candi
dates, M:. Peeples claiming a suffi
cient number of these should be
thrown out for violation of the rules,
and he be made,the nominee. The
Thirty-third District contest between
Oscar Brown and J. B. G. Logan was!,
given only passing reference during
the general discussion. The petition
of each of the coniestants was read
