Editors in Convention.

There is real significance In the fact
that there exists such an organization
as the American Society Of Newspaper
Editors and that It can assemble here
in Washington and talk shop. For the
organization, the meetings and the dis
cussions indicate an awakened sense Of
responsibility on the part Of those who
conduct what Senator Capper yester-
day characterized as one of the Nations
most important public utilities. Senator
Capper suggested. not altogether in the
sense of tossing a bouquet to himself
and to his fellow journalists, that with
out the newspapers the Government Of
this country would undoubtedly perish.
But the issue which brings these editors
together and leads them to debate the
best methods Of handling their elusive
commodity, news, is not one which con-
Germs the fate of the Government and
the country If the newspapers did not
exist. Their problem concerns what Is
happening, and what may happen, to
the Government and the country while
the newspapers continue to exist.
They assemble today to discuss the part
they are playing in the building Of a
nation. Most Of them have long since
buried their personalities in the anon
unity of their columns, and dedicated
those columns to serving the common
interest and rejecting the temper and
the wishes of the communities they
serve. Public servants, they look Cor
the rewards and realize the penalties
that lie in public service.
An effort and q desire to improve this
service are natural to expect from q
group Of men whose influence, for good
and bad, is so great, whose responsible
ties increase as their power grows.
