Jim Bynum verc i Katwrdav afternoon euests of Mr. On Right Trark, Bui By Wrong ocas Excerpt from'a-letter received by The 'Associated lress iroin' Roberta Shearer, news editor of the seventh grade paper of Elim Union Elementary School, Hilmar, California. Dear Roberta: As one of the 1,400 member newspapers of The Associated Press, we thank you for so clearly stating your request. This newspaper is proud to say it belongs to the AF 7 because it, believes in the principle on which this unique non-profit, cooperative press -association jra3 founded many years ago 1 i. You may not be able to say your school: paper is a member of the AP, but you have demonstrated you know what would make any newspaper all its editors would like it to be.

This newspaper, for example, recognizes a public trust. It knows its duty is to report the events of the world accurately, swiftly and fearlessly, so its readers'may have a-elear knowledge of what is happening. As a member of the AP it is able to do exactly that. Perhaps you may have read what the founder of the 'present-day AP said away back in. 1893.

It was; "The people must be given the facts, free from the slightest bias, leaving to them the business of forming their own opinicnis." Throughout the years The Associated Press has provided just such news reports. Long after you are out of the seventh grade as' long as there is freedom in this land of ours it will continue to report the truth, swiftly and fearlessly. That's" why 1,400 newspapers are proud to be members of such a world-wide news gathering organization. 7 -'v'X-'' Sincerely yours, 3.. L.
