Purine this hiniuhI observance newspapers throiiKhout the United StntK endeavor to rail attention to the impor tance of a free prjs. Kmphasis also is placed on services offered by the newspapers and the importance of those services t.; the local community. We intend during the next few days to report in this column some of the activities, policies and plana of your newspaper. We hope that you w ill obtain a better under Htandinu of what a newspaper means to you and, more especially, r.ow the free press serves as the most impor tant safeguard to your personal freedom. The management of 77c Srim-llrvirir operates on the theory that publishing a newspaper is not a mere private business enterprise We believe that a newspaper is a public utility; that we are as much in public service as are the railroads, gas, power and electric companies; that we must ("insider rervice to the public to be of greater importance than prcfits. Vet, like any other utility, we must make a profit if we arc to continue giving service. Too, our service is limited by financial ability. We would like to give more sen ice than we now can provide, but income and profit disparity do not permit. Long Period Of Expansion We hop- you rime been reading the series of articles writteu by Wendell Webb, editor of The Orriimi Stritrsmtni, Salem, and appearing daily in Thr S'rira-Hriirir. If you have been reading 'hose items, you know that a newspaper is highly departmentalized. I'rincipal departments include the business office, editorial and news departments, adver tising depigment, composing room, engraving department, stereotype and press rooms, and circulation department. I!ch department has its particular duties to perform, yet the whole must be coordinated. The work of coordination is largely the responsibility of the business manager. Thr S'rirx-Hrririr' business manager, Mr. Kdwin I.. Knapp. has had an extremelv difficult task to perform. Wc liar' years of national depression when business did lint permit purchase of new eiiipment. Then came the war when no equipment was available. So, for more than 20 years Thr Kcim-IIrricir had little change in its mechan ical facilities. Capacity Mora Than Doubled During the late years of the war lloseburg began to expand. Thr S'rim-Krriiir, however, was working with obsolete and inadequate machinery, insufficient newsprint supply and a shortage of help. Those were tough (lavs! When equipment again came on the market, Thr Ni ivi-l'rvirir began rebuilding. The old 8-page, flat-bed press, which pounded from early morning until late after neon to g't out a day's edition, was replaced with a 10 pge, tubular press capable of printing 30,00(1 papers per hour. New linecasting machines were installed. Many new machines, such as material maker, Ludlow, saws, stripper, rotary mil"rer, were added. The engraving department was rebuilt from top to bottom, l'ecause the newspaper was outgrowing its workshop, the commercial printing d -partment was sold and moved to another location. Still the expansion continued. Today Thr Snrx-Hrrii iv has no equipment held over from prewar days except a couple of linecasting machines. Kverything else is new. Thr Srirn-Hrvirir's mechanical department is one of the best in Oregon, for the Vize of the paper's oieratrm, and is frequently inspected by other publishers ns a mode! for efficient production. Thr St iin-lirririr has more than doubled its number of renders, has more than doubled its weekly number of pages, has inrreastd advertising service, enlarged circu lation fac'lities and service, and has tripled the number of employs from prewar days. This expansion program has been arduous and expen-l sive. Mr. Knapp has had herculean tasks to perform. The program, linwever, w as conducted with one thought in mind that regardless of cost, Thr Xrics-Kfiirir must be placed in a position to serve the community with th; utmost efficiency. We can report that Tlir Srirx-Rrririr now has the! necessary equipment to publish even a larger paper than : we now are producing, whenever community expansion requires. "e anticipate continued growth and are prepared to meet it. TAiTMrvr or thi owvtmhtf i MANAGEMENT, 4t C1HC1 'LATION . K F.Ql IHIU Bivnil Av. I in CONGRFSI OrAl'CL'ST 2.

As if we didnt knovv. after several years' tussle. Ku I love this hiklleaf maple for all the work it makes. It also air conditions our house so folks ex claim at the coolness in our home. It takes a fire in the tin-place, many a summer morning, to per suade that coolness to move on up the chimney ! But even on a warm day an excuse for a fire is welcome, isn't it?

' (Used by permission) Russia's Hunger For Power Stressed In Foreign Policy Statement Of United States WASHINGTON (API The State department officially described Rustle Friday as "a powtr-hungry government that is bent on spreading its power by force, terror." In a policy outline drafted at President Truman's suggestion, the department said that since 1 945 the Soviet Union has an. nexed some 7,500,000 square miles of new territory and has taken more than 500,000,000 people under its control. "It is now trying to extend its empire across Asia," the de partment added. In The Day's News .8y FRANK JENKINS.

And then you wouldn't have much because it also costs millions of dollars to main tain staffs of experienced report ers the world around. Your sh'ire is but the few cents a day you pay for your newspa per. Three world-wide wire services provide news to augment a news paper's staff of local reporters j and correspondents. They are The ; Associated Tress. The United : Press and The International News Service. Newspapers themselves own the AF sharing its costs cooperatively. The others to a major extent op erate on their own. All three serve new spapers of ail complexions. The AP and the I P, as the larg est, are completely competitive. Neither could withhold news even if it wanted to the other would carry it. Neither can stray from the facts the other would con tradict it. Neither can do more than present news objectively, fac tually, accurately it could tot low no "line" because its client newspapers include all political and social beliefs. Both must keep right ' down the middle" of impar tiality. Some of the world's greatest edi tors and reporters work for the wire services, many of them anonymously. The service's full time staffs number into the thou sands, all skilled craftsmen in their field. They include, in addition to editorially - trained men and women, teletype operators, main tenance men, field representatives, scientists, linquisls. interpreters. Through their vast organisations, the wire services can pioidenews in your city of the activity in Paris. Rome, Tokyo. Jerusalem anywhere a few moments after it happens. And conxersely. t h e news in your city can get on the national and world wide wires just as promptly through your own newspaper tie in. Only a pipe dream, you sa ? 1 siippoe you're right.
