ON THE INSIDE OF
A VILLAGE NEWSPAPER
(Chanel Hin Weeklyl

Several years ago one OF my
faithful subscribers called me on
the telephone to make complaint.
She was friendly enough, but re-
proachful. She said she had just
looked through the Weekly and
found it had no report of her oper-
alton. She said that the issue of the
week before had had real nice
article about Mrs. So-and-So, her
neighbor, who had gone. to the hos
pital with nothing worse than a
broken ankle, but now when she
herself had had one of her kidneys
taken out, a much more serious
operation, the paper didn't say a
word about it.
l expressed regret at the omis-
sion, saying that we did not have
reporters, as city papers had, to
make the rounds of hospitals and
inquire about patients, and so we
had to depend on family members
and friends for news of operations.
said if she would give me the
facts in the case / would publish
an article about it next week. She
did give me the facts, and / did
publish an article (not as detailed
as it might have been, from the in
formation received, but ade-
quate), and that made everything
all right.
was entirely sincere in saying
that regretted the omission. I
want to give the people of the vii
lage the sort of news they want,
and / have found that there is
nothing they are more interested
in reading about than operations,
whether their own or their friends.
What to put in and what to leave
out is question that newspapers
have to be thinking about all the
time. This is true wherever the
paper is, but, in the considerations
that determine the answer, there is
often a wide difference between
the city and the small town. In the
city there is usually no obstacle to
making a decision on a cold ration
al basis; the readers are great
impersonal mass known as the
public;' rarely is personal relation
ship an interfering factor. But in
a small town the editor is always
keenly conscious of how particular
men and women, whom he knows
and meets, week in and week out,
on the street and at the post office
and in homes and stores and res
taurants, will be affected by the
publication, or omission, of news.
1t happens that sometimes an
editor is asked not to print any,
thing about a certain incident,
maybe because the news would be |
in some way discreditable to the
person making the request, maybe
for some so-called reason that |
seems to the editor no reason at |
all. So arises the question Of what |
is "real news" Of course there are
clear cases, in which there is no
doubt what the decision should be,
but there are also debatable cases.
The late William Allen White, the
most famous of all small-town ed
TORS, visited Chapel Hill once, and
| remember a conversation l had
with him on this subject. l remem-
Der he said that his policy was not
10 put in his paper (the Emporta,
Kansas, Gazette) anything that
would hurt any of the neighbors'
feelings unless there was a COM
pelling reason for putting it in.

OPS Director Sees
Fall Prices Going Up
(oOntinuea IrOm nrst paseJ

Continued from nrst page)
McBryan, regional OPS director,
said this week.
He added that apparel prices
were about the only prices which
have been soft" in recent months
and yet not joined the general ad-
vance reported in the governments
latest cost of living index.
Indications now are that cloth
ing and apparel will join food,
miscellaneous services such as the
cost of medical care and auto in
surances, rent, fuel, and the house
hold cost of utilities, in the general
overall upswing which began five
months ago.
Clothing manufacturers, especial
Iy makers of medium-priced wO-
mems wear, report increased ac-
tivity now that the summer dol
drums are over. Retail stores re-
port substantial sales of knitted
dresses and sweaters.
House furnishings and electric
appliances also seem headed for
price rises, OPS said. This is true
especially of carpets where inven-
tories are now close to the vanish
ing point. Appliance manufactur-
ers, meanwhile, are considering
asking OPS for higher price cell
ings to reflect increased costs of
steel, aluminium and copper.
McBryan said the combination
of these developments can only
result in new pressures on existing
price levels for some months to
come.
