AT ENORMOUS expense The Chicago Tribune maintains its own reporters
at all important sources of world news. The following letter, voluntarily
written by Rear Admiral C. M. Chester of the United States Navy, proves hew.

Editor ei The Tribune,
Chicago, Illinois.
Having recently returned horn an extended visit te
Constantinople, where I was able te see much ei the
methods prevailing in Turkey ter the collection and
dissemination ei news reports, I have come te learn
that the only truthiul iniormatien that comes te this
country is through The Chicago Tribune. All ether
news items that reach the American public are ei
British manuiacture and unreliable. Your correspond
ents in Turkey, I knew, have had a hard time te collect
correct iniormatien, and their bravery is commendable.
Very truly yours,

THE FOREIGN NEWS SERVICE of The Chicago
Tribune is a vital constructive force working for
American welfare. It furnishes truthful reports of
world events en which the American people can formu
late sound decisions.
Compare our situation with that of European coun
tries which, because of the intrigues of their diplo
mats or the lack of energy and initiative of their
newspapers, are given only hand picked news designed
te leave the public in ignorance or te mislead. People
se misinformed can be, and are, led blindly into all
sorts of international complications and errors which
they could avoid if they knew the truth.
It is difficult enough, even with accurate knowledge,
te find one's way through the complications of
European and Asiatic racial and nationalistic in
trigues. It is impossible without accurate knowledge.
The Chicago Tribune gives such information. The
Tribune may be called pre-Turkish, anti-Russian, pro pre
British, or pre-German, or anti or pre anything else.
That is incidental. The facts speak for themselves.
The Tribune does net make them. The Tribune
reports them. The Tribune's reporters face privation,
hardship, and occasionally persecution te get these
facts.
The Chicago Tribune is proud of the many scoops
achieved by its men, but their work is most valuable
because of the daily routine reporting of unvarnished
TRUTH.

Chicago Tribune are printed in its New Yerk news
paper The Daily News and in many ether papers
