that newspapers should tell the simple truth and let it

consciousness One is that simplicity is the keynote of
good writing Another is that between understanding
and overstatng the it is far better to undersate
it third principle is that nothing is so interesting as
the simple truth No reporter can invent detail as in
teresting as the real detail in any given case,
