FREE PRESS HELD
New York Publisher Tells
Advertisers It Carries Hope
Above Congress.
By the Associated Press.
WHITE SULPHUR SPRINGS. W.
Va , May 1.—Henry R. Luce of Time
and Fortune magazines, told the
American Association of Advertising
Agencies yesterday that the press of
the country was one of the strongest
bulwarks against dictatorship.
The New York publisher declared:
"There's more hope in the press
today than in Congress or the edu
cational system or motion pictures or
in literatures in turning back the
darkness of dictatorship and undemo
cratic practices * * * which stifle
the press.
"Never was an informative, signifi
cant, truthful press more important
than today.”
He continued:
"What the public wants is what it
needs. It is the will of the people
that no control be imposed on the
publisher in giving it enlightenment
and entertainment.”
Retiring Chairman Paul Cornell told
the association that advertising was
“moving with humanity toward a
higher destiny.”
He described the work of advertising
men as a "highly necessary Job of
moving goods,” and added that they
“are sensitive to the mood and cur
rents of their time and have delicate
spiritual antennae which tell in terms
of mass psychology in what direction
clients may move profitably."
The convention heard Prof. Ray
mond Moley of Columbia University
declare earlier today that advertis
ing’s task “is to restore the broken
fragments of public belief in the in
tegrity of business * *
“Your Job is to see that American
business 1s believed,” he said, "be
cause when it is believed, politicians
are going to praise, foster and encour
age it, not use it as a whipping boy to
direct attention from the mistakes of
politicians and of Government.”

Highlights of 55-Year Career
In State Department Recalled
Secretary Hull paid tribute yesterday to the 55-year service
record of William McNeir on the latter’s retirement as chief
of the Bureau of Accounts, State Department. He had been in
the Government employ 60 years. —Star Staff Photo.
IS trip to France with the
American Peace Mission and
a ringside seat at the signing
of the Treaty of Versailles
were recalled by William McNeir as
the highlights of his 55-year career
in the State Department when he
retired yesterday after 60 years in
the Federal service.
McNeir, chief of the Bureau of
Accounts, was disbursing officer for
the peace mission. He sailed with
its members, Secretary of State
Lansing. Henry White, Col. Edward
M. House and Gen. Tasker H. Bliss,
in November, 1918, just after the
armistice was signed and resided with
them in Paris for a year.
Almost every ruler of a nation
involved in the World War was a
visitor in Paris that year. McNeir
saw all of them except former King
Alfonso of Spain and the late King
George V of England.
"We lived at the Crillon Hotel,”
he recalled. "Those were very busy
days. I had probably only three days’
leave during the entire period. Then
I went over to London for a change.”
McNeir thought back over his long
service—he joined the State Depart
ment in 1881 when James G. Blaine
was Secretary—and decided the big
gest event of his experience was the
signing of the Treaty of Versailles.
He stood in the room where rulers,
foreign ministers and delegates of
many nations affixed their signatures
to the document.
He also served as disbursing officer
for the American-Mexican Joint Com
mission in 1916; the Washington
Disarmament Conference, 1921-2; the
International Conference of American
States on Conciliation and Arbitra
tion here in 1928-9, and numerous
other Important international confer
ences.
Secretary Hull paid tribute yester
day to McNeir in farewell ceremonies
attended by about 100 State Depart
ment employes. The Secretary pre
sented the accounts chief with a
silver service, the gift of the depart
ment, carrying an engraved tribute
on the bowl. Workers in McNeir's
own division also made farewell gifts.
Mrs. McNeir received a bouquet of
roses.
"You have been here longer,” Sec
retary Hull said, "than some of us
have been alive. I desire to give
expression of my own recognition of
the loyalty to the department and
tlhe fidelity to trust which have
characterized your conduct of the
responsible positions you have oc
cupied.”
McNeir was bom here in 1864 and
attended Emerson Institute. He was
a page in the House from 1877 to
1879 and on May 1, 1881, became a
temporary clerk in the State De
partment.
The McNeirs reside at 1844 Monroe
street. “We will keep our residence
here and do some traveling,” McNeir
said. "That is, after I get my bear
ings.”

REPORT WINDSOR
LEASING CASTLE
Austrian Frontier Town
Hears Honeymoon Will
• Be Spent There.
E? the Associated Press.
ST. WOLFGANG, Austria, May 1.—
A report that the Duke of Windsor
and his bride would honeymoon at
Count Paul Muenster’s Wasserleonburg
castle near the Yugoslav-ltalian-Aus
trian frontier was current here today.
It was thought they would remain
there several months, amid the
Alpine beauties of a Southern Austrian
province. The 40-room castle, a vast
pile of gray masonry, stands near
Arnoldstein, Carinthia.
The indications were the former
British monarch would not go there
before his marriage to Mrs. Wallis
Warfield Simpson, for whose love he
quit the throne.
Divorce Final Soon.
Mrs. Simpson's divorce action in
England probably will become final
next week, but no date for the mar
riage has been announced. She is
at a chateau, near Monts, Prance.
The duke visited Wasserleonburg
during his recent Enzefeld residence.
He was intrigued by the castle which
dates from 1250. Rebuilt In 1747, It
has a swimming poo], a beautiful gar
den terrace with a stone gateway,
through which one enters a small
courtyard.
On one side of the courtyard there
is a chapel with a baroque altar, and
on the other side the living quarters.
Rent Paid to May 12.
The duke had paid his rent here at
Appesbach Villa up to May 12—coro
nation day in London.
A spokesman for the former King,
however, said last night he would not
attend the ceremony.
"The duke has decided not to at
tend the coronation, in which he has
the amount of interest which you
would expect, no more and no less,” the
Informant explained.
