["Editors Adopt a Code of Ethics"—From The Boston Herald]

Setting a standard based on truth, sincerity, thoroughness, justice, mercy, kindliness, and moderation, the Oregon State Editorial Association adopted recently a code of ethics intended to be a guide to the profession of journalism in the state. The code was unanimously approved by a representative gathering of Oregon editors and publishers who pledged themselves to adhere to its precepts.

There are seven sections to the code and they go in detail into all practices and relationships of journalism. The first is headed "Sincerity and Truth" and declared for accuracy in editorial, advertisement, articles, or news story.
