gathered In this manner,

SECRETIVE GENTLEMEN.

It Is the custom of some head3 of industries in this region to neither allow themselves to be interviewed

nor to permit their department heads

to talk for publication.

These gentlemen sometimes remark that newspapers never get certain news correctly detailed and they are

quite prolific in their comments up

on the carelessness and inaccuracy of

newspapers. When reporters meet with men of this type they must depend upon their own resources to ob-'

Consequently a story

may not

measure up to the standard of accuracy of one which would be based on official information yet on the whole a newspaper man usually succeeds In his efforts despite the ill advised secretiveness of those who can give out legitimate Information. Not long ago THE TIMES received a communication from a superintendent criticizing certain details in an - account of an accident which had oc- ' curred. Yet a reporter for this .newspaper had endeavored to get from the protestant the very same details

which the latter had represented as inaccurately recorded as far aa minor

facts were concerned. The reporter

had the story and the superintendent did not aid his company by his atti

tude of remaining silent.

However, not all Industrial heads are of this sort. Some of them are

adopting the broad views of that great industrial captain, Elbert H. Gary, and are not only civil but accommodating In their attitude towards the press. And these are ths ones who have the mental breadth to climb higher. : j .
