...your issue of Oct. 12 you mentioned that Boy Scouts on an occasion several weeks ago followed Al Capone from the field at the Northwestern-Nebraska football game where he was reported to have been booed by the Scouts. Since this original item was published which doubtless arose from a United Press news dispatch, we have made careful inquiry. The sum of the evidence from responsible Scout officials in Chicago and Evanston is to the effect that the Boy Scouts were seated on the opposite side of the Field from Capone; they were there as guests of Northwestern...
...permitted to quote Mr. Stimson's original words, each correspondent had had to make what he could of them. The Associated Pressman came to the conclusion that, since Mr. Stimson could not "understand" the advance of the Japanese Army contrary to so many assurances, State Department officials doubtless credited widespread reports of a feud between the peaceably inclined Japanese civil Cabinet and pugnacious independent Japanese militarists like General Honjo.

...first objection is that so far the public has not been favored with any proof of the Crusaders' activity. The organization promised to send out periodic bulletins telling of its work, and this it has not done, doubtless with good reason. It has undertaken no propaganda work except to increase its membership. It is not, as far as we can tell, of any influence politically or otherwise, in spite of its large membership. It had good financial backing to begin with, and to have nothing to show for $500, 000 is not so much a reflection on the honesty...
