The first recommendation will abol-
ish ward lines and allow of the selec-
ton of five men from the city at large
for the governing body. In this man
ner not only will a more compact body
be possible. the report showed, but
the best material in the city will be
available. Councilmen will work as
now, without salary.
The second point makes it possible
for the council to choose one man or
several to administer the various de-
partments of the city. If a city man
ager is deemed best or department
superintendents are preferred. the
council has the power to elect these
Employed officials will be responsible
directly to the council.
The third recommendation was
made in belief that past experience
has shown that separate water board
is most successful.
The fourth recommendation follows
out plan of action which is believed
necessary for the ultimate good of the
city to establish parks and play
grounds before available sites become
too costly to purchase. A move FOR
this expansion is also being made by
the Commercial Association in con-
junction with the Parent Teachers As
sociation of Pendleton.
In order to obtain these changes an
amendment TO the city charter will be
necessary, Chairman G.. NJ. Rice, of the

"BY playing up news that
tends to the upbuilding of the COM
munity and by playing down. and
even eliminating entirely, news
that tends to exert an unwholesome
influence. newspapers in various
parts of the country have developed
q type Of constructive journalism.
Such consideration for the
effect of news on readers as men,
bers Of the community, and hence
on community life, is one OF the
most important forward steps taken
by the modern newspaper.
Although occasion may arise
from time to time for newspapers
to turn the searchlight of publicity
on social and political corruption,
the feeling is gaining strength that
newspaper crusades in the interests
Of institutions and movements
making for community uplift are
even more important than the con-
tinued exposure of evils.
MANY aggressive. crusading pa
pers. accordingly, have turned from
q policy Of exposing such condi-
tions to the constructive purpose of
showing how various agencies may
be used for community develop
ment.
"Searchlight' journalism is thus
giving way to sunlight journal
ism. A constructive policy that
aims to handle local new and
