Babson Discusses Newspapers As One of Four Foundations Stones JU- By ROGER W. BABSON ’ Babson Park, Mass., June 11.— The future of the Free Nations of the world depends upon four foun dation stbnes: (1) We Parents; (2) Our Churches; (3) Our Schools and Colleges; and (4) Our Newspapers. My appeal today is for greater sup port of all newspapers of the Free World. (I would like to include a fifth grouj>—namely, the scien tists and inventors, but they now appear to devote their time largely to the destruction of this Globe.) Publiahart and Writers In view of the above, the Babsons have distributed their surplus sav ings for awaken ing the churches, through the great Open - Church Movement; speed ing college educa tion, through Bab son Institute, Web ber College and Utopia College, and now dedicat ing this World’s Greatest Revolving Globe to the newspapers of the Free World. I feel that newpsaper pub lishers have not been appreciated when they were entitled to far greater respect and consideration. They certainly are more import ant to the future of America than are the bankers, the manufacturers, and the shopkeepers. Newspapers not only have the opportunity of guiding their nation’s leaders, but they are a great factor in electing the right leaders. The advertising columns of these papers determine vault under the cornerstone, upon which will be bolted a bronze plaque with the followng inscrip tion: “This plaque is dedicated to the Newspaper Publishers of the Globe and all persons in their employ. May their work be appreciated, their freedom be protected and the employment conditions of the, 4 , .

BABSON” Dedication Exercises ees,‘ including the boys and girls who deliver the papers. Yes, and I must not forget the advertisers, without whom our whole industrial system might collapse. To all of these I am dedicating this—“The World’s Largest Globe.” The Great Globe Described This “Great Revolving Globe” is being located on the* 300-acre cam pus of the Babson Institute at Wellesley, Massachusetts. It is 30 feet in diameter and weighs with the shafts thirty-seven tons. The countries and cities are located on a scale of twenty-four miles to the inch, and the Globe will designate the home of the newspapers of 400 cities from which 95 per cent of the populaton of the Uiited States, Can ada, Latin America, Great Britain, France, Italy, West Germany and the other Free Nations are read ing. Copies of these and others, including The Clinton Chronicle, are being deposited in a concrete HKSBSS.

They were followed by a welcome from Herbert A. Gleason, Chairman of the Wellesley Board of Selectmen, and by Mfejor General George A. Horkan, one of the Institute's most distinguished graduates. The ground was broken by Roger Bab son Webber, my grandson. The Chairman of the Committee select ing and gathering the newspapers is Lewis W. Mustard, HI. I announced that surrounding the Globe will be seats for over a hun dred persons and that a' Monthly Vesper Service will be held with the Globe as a background tor the minister. This is so that every stu dent will remember all the differ ent nations and races of the Globe. I want them to realize that the en tire world is their responsibility and that America is safe only as the entira Globe is safe. I am de pending on my newspaper friends to get other colleges to instill their students with this same Global point of view.
