The plan for the development of

'Time,' tried to indicate 'which

were sympathetic and therefore,
by contrast with the scenes of

Of special interest Is the refer-

treatment of Jews and Jewish mat-
ters by Time. To quote Elm':
" 'Time' freely identified persons
decidedly on the side of breaking
down prejudices of any sort'. "
Elson concludes this portion of
his report by stating: "Luce was
sincere in stating this to be
Time's policy, and he was to re-
state it before the decade was I

of news Time was more careful
