 THE WORLD, as established by 
 JOSEPH PULITZER, May 10, 1883 
 
 "An institution that should always fight for progress and re- 
 form, never tolerate injustice or corruption, always fight dema- 
 gogues of all parties, never belong to any party, always oppose 
 privileged classes and public plunderers, never lack sympathy 
 with the poor, always remain devoted to the public welfare, 
 never be satisfied with merely printins; news, always be drasti- 
 cally independent, never be afraid to attack wrong, whether by 
 predatory plutocracy or predatory poverty."
 
 A Word About The World 
 
 ''First in Public Service" -^^f 
 
 ^ U/36 
 
 X y 
 
 THE NEW YORK WORLD is more than a first-class newspaper. 
 It is the most independent, the most courageous and the most dis- 
 interested publication in the country. In the true sense of the 
 word, it is the most ably edited paper in the United States. It is free; it 
 is bold ; it is scrupulously honest ; it is the one paper in the United States 
 that actually devotes itself to the public service. 
 
 The World does not believe that all the news that is fit to print is 
 worth reading. It does not compete with volume, but excels in values. 
 All essential occurrences The World presents in compact, accurate form. 
 It is concerned with facts rather than with opinion or detail. A World 
 reader is more quickly, more deftly, more competently informed of what 
 has happened to the world in the last twenty-four hours than is the reader 
 of any other New York newspaper. What every man and woman wants 
 to know, The World tells — and in the fewest possible words. This is 
 the triumph of the art of able editing. 
 
 The World does not confuse virtue with dulness. It is written to be 
 read. It is neither ponderous nor self-important. It tries to be right 
 and is, most of the time, but is not afraid to admit error. It is interested 
 in people and believes in humanity. It is friendly. It has common sense 
 and a sense of humor. Therefore it is lively and entertaining. It is a sad 
 day in which there are not several laughs in The World. It cherishes 
 no grouches — it prefers to hope for the best. 
 
 The World is never content with merely giving the news. It con- 
 ceives itself as the attorney for the People. It abhors injustice and dares 
 expose it. It can be depended on to defend the oppressed. Its history 
 is a catalogue of public services. Its reputation is founded on the fights 
 it has made against the enemies of the common weal. The consistent foe 
 of misgovernment and corruption, it is feared more by political tricksters 
 and spoilsmen than any other journal in America. 
 
 It was The World that exposed the oppressi\e rings of extortionate 
 builders and labor blackmailers. With the evidence gathered by The 
 World, Samuel Untermyer conducted his famous campaign that broke
 
 up the rings and sent Brindell to jail. It was The World that tore the 
 mask of secrecy off the Ku Klux Klan. Relentlessly it revealed this sin- 
 ister organization spreading the poison of bigotry and racial antagonism 
 across our land. It was the campaign for disarmament inaugurated by 
 The World that first gave voice to the cry that has gone ringing around 
 the planet for the cessation of competition in battleships. Because of 
 the conviction roused by The World's insistent campaign, the great na- 
 tions of Europe and Asia were summoned to a Disarmament Conference 
 in Washington in November. To report the proceedings of this most 
 momentous meeting The World summoned the man best fitted to inter- 
 pret its issues, the famous historian, H. G. Wells. 
 
 These are but the latest instances of world service performed in the 
 twelve months past, but they indicate why American journalism con- 
 cedes intellectual and moral leadership to the publication that was founded 
 by Joseph Pulitzer. 
 
 The World is clean. It does not pander to vice or to crime. It is 
 fair — it has neither friends nor foes in public places. It is earnest in its 
 effort to be accurate in stating the facts of the news. It has no purpose 
 to serve save to tell the truth. It is intrinsically honest and believes its 
 integrity is conceded even by those it has attacked. 
 
 The characteristics set forth here are rare in an individual and still 
 rarer in a newspaper. They are stated without boastfulness, for they are 
 no more than a record of facts. They represent the spirit breathed into 
 a journalistic entity by the ablest, most far-sighted personality that Amer- 
 ican journalism has produced. His thought, his message, have been held 
 inviolate by his successors. The World is conducted by a group of men 
 who are devoted to the ideals it stands for and whose hope is to be true 
 to the faith that has been given them. World men know that they 
 serve a paper that is free and brave and they are proud of their connec- 
 tion with an institution that has no other cause to serve but Truth and 
 the Right.

 cation in its columns, communications directly from distin- 
 guished men in America and in other countries, such as the late 
 Pope, the English King, the British Prime Minister, Jan Smuts, 
 John Maynard Keynes, the President of the French Republic, 
 the Prime Minister of the French Republic, the President of 
 the German Republic, the Prime Minister of Italy, the King of 
 the Belgians, the Prime Minister of the Australian Common- 
 wealth, the Prime Minister of the Dominion of Canada, the 
 Primate of England, the Emperor of Japan, the Prime Minister 
 and Foreign Ministers of Japan, H. G. Wells, George Bernard 
 Shaw. 
 
 The list of men active in public service who have found

 here. 
 
 Among the regular contributors on foreign politics are such 
 men as Andre Tardieu, former member of the French Cabinet ; 
 George N. Barnes, former Minister of Labor of Great Britain ; 
 Maximilian Harden, famous publicist of Germany. The value 
 of The World's columns will be further enhanced by contri-

 who brought his nation to victory — "First in Public Ser\ice."
