making in all three movements nee
essary on the part Of the machine
typesetter, which is one movement
more than is necessary under the
process devised by "The Literary
Digest"
If photographs are used with the
story they are made into half-tones
by a separate process and then as
sembled or "made up" into the COM
plete page. The system Of "Ihe
Literary Digest" obviates this sepa-
rate treatment Of photographs by
pasting the photograph or line
drawn art on the page with the
written matter and making q zinc
etching Of the whole at the same
time instead OF treating each sepa-
rately. That is another movement
saved.
In printing, whether the process is
done on fiat bed or on a rotary
press, the system Is the same, and
thus the revolution" applies par
ticularly to the matter Of typeset-
ting.
Meticulous care in FASTING and
photographing Is necessary, and
thus, if the new process is to be
widely used, it will mean the ex-
pansion Of the art rooms and new

be possible to prepare a complete
with the assistance Of
neither hand nor machine set type,
an example Of which the current is
sue Of "The Literary Digest" offers
only editorially.
With the issue Of the latest
Digest" number the editorial de-
partment wired to $50 editors IN
the United States calling their at
tention to a pioneer process, while
pointing out specifically that "The
Literary Digest" was forced to this
experiment by circumstances over
which it had no control.
At the Typothetm Section, EN-
ploying Printers, 949 Broadway,
those in charge preferred to say
nothing about an experiment that
may revolutionize periodical pub
fishing until they had seen a SAM
pie, which had not yet come to their
notice.
It was the opinion Of one Of the
officers that while the method was
theoretically sound, halftones, line
drawings and even print were GER
tain to lose definition by successive
reproductions, and that the finished
product, so far as being easy to
read was concerned, would be IN
ferior to the work Of a linotyping
machine.
The printed pages Of "The Lit
erary Digest" of the current num-
Der are not so clean nor are they
so precisely balanced as under the
former process, but they may be
read easily and they carry informa-
ton, and that, perhaps, is the first
Office of a periodical.
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1919-10-19

employment for art workers among
the magazines and any newspapers
that should elect to try "The Literary
Digest's" system. But given suf-
ficient stenographers and art room
help and there apparently would be
no limit to the size of a magazine
that might be issued.
"This new system may be of
especial interest to those who print
small magazines" declared Mr..
Woods. "It would be relatively
easier to issue a small periodical by
this method. 1t is certainly worth
trial"
The head Of "The Literary
Digest" said that while his work had
been multiplied it was comparatively
as easy to assemble an entire page
by this method as to take care of the
photographs and reproductions of
cartoons, which was what he was
called upon to do under the old
regime.
The headlines are drawn by staff
artists and when they are repro
duced by camera they are made to
look precisely like machine or hand
set captions. In the accompanying
illustration, for instance, the caption
"Mob-Rule as a National Menace"

product would defy all but the eyes
Of an expert"
While in the act of springing
revolution Of sorts, it nights be i'm
agined there was no end Of hustle
and furry in the editorial rooms of
"The Literary Digest" Such was not
the case. There was dead calm,
with none Of tie brisk winds that or
dinarily issue from various desks in
an average editorial room.
"snpposing the stenographer
makes an error?" was asked.
"Here Is how we doctor It," said
the book reviewer.
In his hand he carried a sample
typewriter page, upon which the
stenographer had originally made
an error. Correction did not in
volve the resetting Of the entire
page. Instead, the line in which
the error appeared was retyped by
the amanuensis and was then super
imposed, by the process Of pinning,
upon the erroneous line. In photo
graphing the page the correction

How One Magazine Defies the Typesetters
and Prints the Copy Itself-a Revolu-
tonary Feat In Publishing

melted into the picture in such a
way as to reproduce without blem-
ish. Indeed, in the majority of the
pages Of the issue that already has
been printed, there were tipping cor
rections made, yet the camera cor
reefs so smoothly that no eye can
detect it.
By contrast with the orthodox
manner Of magazined printing one
may see the number Of movements
that are elided by the new system.
The magazine editor, under the old
method, accepts a story in typewrit-
ten form. The story is edited, the
art planned and the copy sent to the
typesetter or compositor. The COM
positor then sets the copy from the
typewriter page. 1t is placed in
galleys and proof is read by the
proofreader with notation of
errors. The errors are then sent
back to the typesetter for correc-
ton and a revised proof drawn.
This proof goes to the magazine
editor and if, in the revised story,
he detects any error, the matter is
again sent back to the compositor,
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1919-10-19

is reproduced not from a type face
but from the brush Of an artist.
These headlines are prefxed to the
typewriter matter by pasting and
then photographed.
It is obvious that while this man.
ner Of caption headline might be
suitable to periodical, some simpler
and quicker operation would have to
be devised if a newspaper were to
be issued upon similar lines. There
would not, in that event, be time to
deal with drawn headlines which
necessarily consume more time than
those which are batted off by a limo
type machine or set by the hand of
an experienced printer.
While Mr.. Woods estimated that
the cost was approximately the same
as that of regulation printing, the
head Of the Literary Digest" art
department rated the cost Of the
photographed page 81, as against
SO or SIP for the printed page.
The shift to the new formula was
accomplished with the utmost ease.
Although "The Literary Digest" of
the current issue comprises eighty
pages, it was not even necessary to
hire extra stenographers, a half
dozen of them completing the work.
A great many Of the pages were de-
voted to advertising, which as pub
lished in the usual way from plates
delivered by advertising agencies.
1t is the claim of one typewriter
company that it can develop a ma
chine with the size and kind of type
now used in advertising which, by
the same process, would eliminate
the necessity of constructing ads by
machine and hand. Thus it would

susceptible of improvement, serves
its purpose and opens a new field Of
experimental research in newspaper
and periodical publishing.
"The process is quite as simple as
it looks. Editorial matter is pre-
pared in the customary way and
turned over to stenographer. The
stenographer types off the article
and It is returned to the editor for
reading. That, by the way, is the
final proof reading necessary, for
the rest is done by camera, and pho
Biography cannot misspell.
AFTER the typed matter comes
back to the editor a page is planned,
including the art. This is taken to
the art room, where the typewriter
copy and the cartoons or photo
graphs are pasted upon thick paper
in the form of a page. That pasted
matter is photographed and reduced
on q zinc etching to the size Of
the Literary Digest page. From
the zinc etching plates are made and
the magazine published by the usual
print process.

only have scratched the surface of
possibilities in this direction. But

same as the usual eight-point on a

that the strike was not warranted

Those mills that continued to
operate without interruption,
despite tho strike, we are re-
minded, were manned, not by
strikc-brcakcrs. but by regular
employees who refused to heed
the strike call. Mr.. Fitzpatrick,
chairman OF the strikers COM
mittee, admitted to the Senate
Investigators that only twenty
per cent. Of tho steel employees
were organized, and that the
strike movement was initiated,
not by the mill-workers them
selves, but by labor leaders
