At A. P. Session
By the Associated Press.

LOUISVILLE. Ky, Nov 20.-Local
news is still holding its own in
reader appeal despite the war, M. v.
Atwood Of Rochester, N. Y. associ-
ate editor and head Of the central
news and editorial Office of Gannett
newspapers, told managing editors
of Associated Press member news
papers at the closing session Of their
eighth annual convention today.
MI. Atwood reported on a SYM
postum survey of IS A. p managing
editors. He said that with few ex-
ceptions the A. P papers he sur
veyed have not let wars and major
engagements on the political fronts
diminish their emphasis on local
they are still finding room for proper
recognition of the career and
achievements of MI. j. Quentin
Willoughby, newly-elected president
of the Chamber of Commerce.
Disagreement Cited.
Mr. Atwood cited exceptions to this
view by r W. Simpson of the
Tampa Tribune, C. E. Smith of the
Fairmount (W. Va Times and Will
liam L. Powers of the Youngstown
tOhio, Vindicator. but said most
managing editors share his view that
local news is the very heart of the
newspaper, and it's mighty unim-
portant local story that is pushed
out because of lack of space
Mr.. Simpsons view was that "in
such days as these. people are more
interested in national and foreign
news than in secondary local. Mr..
Smith held that war is the all-ab-
sorbing topic" and Mr.. Powers said
that local news has got to be lot
better than it used to be to get in"
The good will theme in news
paper operation was discussed by
Arthur Burrowes of the st. Joseph
(Mo) News-Press and Gazette.
Believe in Good Will.
I'VE believe we live on good will"
he said citing that his papers spon-
sor annual Christmas parties. Coop
