accordance with in pledge; it needs a
new appraisal of its assets."
Sensing one of the principal argu-
ments to be used by opponents of the
administration proponl. the claim
that the United gates would be placed
at a disadvantage in the election of
Judges to the court through the dis-
parity in the national voting power in
the League assembly. the president
said he frankly recognised this as a
“political bu’bear." but' added that
inasmuch as no nation could have
more than one Judge. it was less of an
objection than when applied to the
League itself.
"Although the question of a world
court formed the burden of the presi-
dent's address. he also bespoke a word
for the establishment of a merchant
marine, deplored lack of party loyalty
and the organization of groups or
blocs to serve group interests and
urged that the primary be made an
agent of indisputable party expression
rather than a mhns of party confu-
sion or destruction."
President Harding was introduced
by Frank B. Noyes. president of the
Associated Press. who said:
“Since I had the honor of presiding
over our annual luncheon last year. I
have spent most of my time in a trip
around the world in an effort to study
at first hand the news conditions in
the Far East. In my Journeyings I
‘was met everywhere with really rc-
markable cordiality and hospitality.
"Some part of this welcome was
due to old friendships. some to the de-
lightful personality of those who ac-
companied me. some. I think. to the
marked brevity that charecterized
such speeches as I felt obliged to
make. but all this being said. truth
also compels me to say that the con-
spicuous feature of my welcome was
an evident desire in each country that
I visited to honor through me. The Air
sociatcd Press.
"I left America feeling very proud
of our organisation and I came back
with an even greater pride. Generous
as was the praise showered on the As-
uathering organization in the world.
the tribute everywhere to its absolute
impartiality were the most hcartonin‘:
words that I have ever heard and I
heard them at every point I visited.
"Japan and Chi'la. with widely dif-
fering standpoints. agreed in credit-
ing‘ie Associated Press with the most
scrupulous impartiality. \‘i’hcn I
reached France and England I found
the relations between the two coun-
tries somewhat estranged. but was met
in both of them by unanimous testi-
mony from leading public men and
journalists that our entirely unbiased
and accurate reports ‘(uve been of the
greatest service to each of them.
"Everywhere it has been recognized
that so far as humanely possible the
service of the Associated Press is kept
free from bias of every sort and I can-
not express the profound satisfaction
with which I have heard these re-
peated expressions and 6 know that
you will share this satisfaction with
me.
"For this reason I will go back to my
desk. prepared to bear with equalli-
mlty and charity. charges that the
Associated Press is controlled and
dominated by Republicans or Demo-
crats, capital or labor. Protestant.
Roman Catholic. or Jew. for I know
that no one who is both informed and
honest can or will make such charges
and—well I will just pity the poor
nuts.
"Both collectively and individually

tion and warm affection for the presi-
dent personally. -
“We are greatly honored that he
has come to us today.
“We welcome him not only as the
honored holder of a great position. but
also as a fell0w newspaper man of
whom we are proud.
