WHAT NEWSPAPER
REPORTER DOES
Appreciation Is Bestowed Where 1t Is
Too seldom Given.

100 StIuoIh
The reporting of so important and
complex a thing as a change in the
federal administration, which has just
taken place, is a task so large and
difficult and yet so wen executed
that a word of appreciation of that
body of men to whom the credit Is
due may not be amiss.
1t is upon the reporter that the sue
cess of every newspaper necessarily
rests. Not only is the correctness of
every news item dependent upon his
accuracy and intelligence, but every
editorial comment, every policy which
his paper adopts and every fight it
makes is based upon the news as the
man on the outside reports it, If he
reports it Incorrectly or inadequately,
his paper fails in its function of Civ
ing to the world the news of the day.
the editorials are valueless or mis-
leading because not based upon facts,
and a journalistic policy or stand
may be utterly wrong or unjust.
These results follow in the steps of
the reporter who is inefficient only,
The situation would be much worse
We're the reporter to allow friendship
or prejudice to color his news. 1t
may often be difficult for even the
thoroughly honest reporter to guard
absolutely against this, but if he does
not guard against it, then either in
justice or undeserved commendation
is almost sure to result to some indi-
vidual or cause.
Here. then. is a class of men upon
whom a really tremendous RESPONSE
bility rests. 1t is a responsibility up
on the proper and honest exercise of
which depends, not only the life of
the paper, but also the just deserts OF
men and their standing before the
world. And it is responsibility
which those who undertake it assume
quietly and with no hope of public
credit for their work, because their
personality is merged into that of the
paper they serve.
The reporters task must be dis
charged with little chance for review
or correction. 1t must be done right
the first time. He must see correctly
the issue of a lawsuit through the
technicalities of the trial. He must
think clearly through the excitement
of political or legislative debate. He
must extract the thing of human in
terest from technical discussions by
learned men. Above everything else
he must be wherever the event of
public interest is happening and he
must be there on time to see it hap
pen.
When we consider the tremendous
pressure under which the news must
be gathered. and the quickness, hon
esty and intelligence which this re-
quires: the versatility which must be
shown in reporting events ranging
from a small personal item to some
episode of world wide Importance;
the insight which is needed to go
straight to the heart of whatever is
happening and see correctly the real
point involved--when we consider all
this we cease to wonder that newspa-
per mistakes are sometimes made, and
marvel instead that they are made so
seldom. And we have n wholesome
respect and admiration for the report
er whose efficiency makes this pos
sible.-Albert c. Ritchie in Baltimore
Sun.
