| Newspapers Radio
Urged 10 Win Greater
Public Confidence
BY the Assoeiotsd Press

NEW YORK. Nov. 12.-If news
papers and the radio are to fulfill
their responsibilities, says Erwin
D. Canham, editor Of the Chris
tian Science Monitor, they must
win greater confidence Of the
public.
He told the annual convention
of the National Association of Ra-
dio News Directors yesterday that
Americans today distrust what
they read in newspapers and hear
on the RADIO"
1--WE are not doing very good
job," he said. '"The crisis in news
papers and radio is one in which
we bear most Of the blame.
1--WE should realize the need Of
turning into human interest the
significant news which Is i'm
portant to peoples lives every
where. We must achieve larger
public confidence"
Cohen Speaks.
He said that although the Amer
ican people are the "best informed
great people in the world" news
papers and the radio still are not
adequately informing them of
world affairs. Recent polls, he
said, indicate that 80 per cent
of the population are unaware of
major national events.
BENJAMIN Cohen, assistant sec
retary general of the United Ma
tions, told the gathering he was
pleased that radio has taken
a leading part in giving and in
terpreting news of the United Ma
tionS."
Newspaper reports" he said,
indicate tAe United Nations is
facing a series of successive fall
ures. This is not true. Every
political crisis brought to the at
tention Of the United Nations has
either been cooled of or solved"
Elimination of Flash" Urged.
Mr.. Canham and Justin Miller,
president of the National Associa-
ton Of Broadcasters, decried any
attempts by Government to regu-
late or control news dissemina-
ton.

It took a Scotsman, Robert Louis

by The Monk, Bill is suspected. A
