THE AMERICAN WAY
The Weekly Paper

Slightly over 52 per cent of the
population of the United States
lives in towns of less than 10000
population. This group represents
approximately 43 per cent of the
buying power of the nation.
Serving this large and import
ant segment of our citizenry is
the Home Town newpaper. 1t is
the one reliable vehicle on which
the seller can carry his message
to this vast portion of our popu-
lation, which, incidentally, has
the highest percentage of home
owners and which normally pur-
chases the most automobiles,
trucks, tractors, household ap-
pliances and many other things.
Several years ago, the editor
of the Dallas (Texas) Morning
News, q large metropolitan daily,
paid high tribute to the weekly
newspapers and to the people
living in the communities ethey
serve. What he said then still
holds good today, perhaps even
more so. Most certainly, it is we'll
worth repeating. Said he in part;
"a hcartwarming sign that the
civilization we have known for

ago there were those who fore
cast the death of the weekly, 1t

! The drain to the city, the rush
for defense Jobs and call TO arms
would mean its doom. But the
prophet did not know his small
communities. Neither did he
know the love one develops for
running small newspaper.
Even though the life is less
glamorouS than on a mctropoli
tan daily, it has its own deeply
rooted charms.
ut is hard to forget the lic-loc
tune OF the press on publication
day. IT'S rare experience to know
that she is oct again, to remove
the forms, redistribute the type
and mail her out to appreciative
customers. 1t is a place where the
back office is close to the front
| and the whole is diffuSed with
an atmosphere that is hard to put
| behind and leave.
"The little towns are still our
, strongholds. There we find devo-
ton and affection for community
life. Folks may be complacent at
times, but they feel they are a
part of their environment, not
little saplings in a dense wood
land. 1t is comforting to know
that their institutions are still
| rooted, that they are weathering
one of the great crisis of history
and will live to carry on a great
heritage"
| That's what the editor of
large paper, published in a large
city, thinks of the small news
paper and the small-town folks
who read it. He could well have
added what the editor of the
small-town weekly is, himself,
too modest to say-that all of the
miracles of production in peace

(SpeciaI to The JOurnaD

This week, seven members OF
the Ohio Senate started an in
vestigation of certain complaints
about the mistreatment of patti
ents at Cambridge State hospital.
Investigators will hold closed
sessions until it can be determin-
ed whether CT not complaints are
valid.
Veteran observers in the legis-
lature predict that Gov. Lausche' S
fair value" utility rate formula
will be defeated in the House
Judiciary Committee. Some leg
islation will be enacted in an at
tempt to force rural telephone
companies to provide better ser
vice, but the rest of the utility
companies will be allowed to
continue untouched. Reports in
dicate that experienced utility
lobbyists are settling back al
ready, feeling assured that they
have won again.
Trucking lobbyists seem very
confident at this stage of the
session, too. At a recent meeting
Kenneth c. Herriot, president o.
the Ohio Trucking Association
told members that they have
nothing to fear in the form of a

distance tax proposed by tne
governor). However, unless the
Republicans can come up with
some measure to provide addi-
tional funds for needed highway
improvements, Herriot may find
that his present confidence was
unwarranted.
State Sen. Charles Mosher, Re-

"The tyrant is dead, Long live
the tyrant!"
With these words one news
paper described the death of
Premier Joseph Stain of Russia
and the announcement that
Georgi M. Malenkov would re-
place him. That was probably the
most correct description Of the
events in Russia, which still has
the western world specializing
and guessing, of any given.
Because Joseph Stain was a
tyrant. He was a bank robber, an
agitator, oppressor and murderer
of millions-the total number of
people killed by his direct orders
will never be known. AS for his
successor, authorities on Russian
government and personalities de-
scribe him as cunning, plotting,
cruel, ruthless paper pusher. And
it is feared he lacks Stalin's pa
tience and may plunge the world
in a blood-bath that will be its
destruction.
The free world waits with fear
and uncertainty for a glimpse at
the new regimes policies and fu-
ture plans. There has been no
shedding of tears over Stain.
But neither has there been jubila-
ton. The future is too uncertain.
There is not likely to be any
early indication Of future policy
for this regime which consists of
Malenkov as Prime Minister,
Marshal Klementi Voroshilov as
Soviet Presidium, and l.. p. Beria,
V. M. Molotov, Nikolai Bulganin
and Lazar M. Dagonovich as
deputy chairmen Of the Council
of Ministers.
1t does appear, however, that
Malenkov will spend considerable
time consolidating his position
and absolute authority. After that
1t is anyone 5 guess.
Too mucn has already been
written about the man Stain and
the trail of death and misery he
left behind him. 1t is the future
that concerns the free world, and
particularly, the future of Russia.
At present this seems to be the
situation in Moscow:
/. The men in the Kremlin
were concerned, and still are,
about the reaction of the Russian
people over Stains death and
the appointment of Malenkov.
That becomes evident as they
have continuously broadcast an
appeal to the people to stand by
the Communist Party.
2. With every day it becomes
more ,evident that anyone who
thinks a revolution will break out
is engaging in wishful thinking.
All indications are that Beria
has the nation firmly under the
control of his secret police and
Malenkov control over the gov
ernrnent becomes stronger with
each passing day.
The most ironic thing about the
whole situation, from the time
Stalin's illness was announced
until his death, was the actions OF
the Russian people themselves
They flocked to church-those
that are officially allowed-to
pray for a man who neither be-
lieved in God or the Church and
who did everything in his power
