Newspaper Editors.: :.' f x -'..i He urged that through the newspapers themselves, the public be given a clearer picture of the romance of the news gathering, so that readers; can better understand the ideals and the emotions of those ;who produce newspapers. The coue oi, newspaper etmcs drawn up by fhe society, jhe suggested, should be published so frequently and so prominently that the pub lic would come to recognize it as the badge of the, profession. "The editorial effort which per ceives that its opportunity is founded 'upon sentiment for an idealism not only contributes .to constructive human relationships but it brings full success." said Mr. Cooper.. "In fact the former is responsible for the latter. "A successful journal may dis avow any idealistic aim. Its own er may have no sentiment and un conscious of any idealism himself, he may look upon his property as a machine for producing money. Such a conception is apt to Sneer at sentimentalists and idealists. But whether or not owned by him who disavows ideals I do not know of a successful journal which has not somewhere at the heart of the enterprise, a throbbing idealism which may be embodied in the personality of the editor or man aging editor, or better still in the entire staff. t "I do not know why newsmen are surcharged with sentiment for their work or why they put into their work that which savors so much of human appeal, I say I do not know. But if I were called to suggest a reason why successful newsmen have a moving senti ment, I could not answer that they come by it intentionally or through any studious process of obtaining it. Nor do I believe that newsmen are born, not made. I distinctly hold that they are made and that they are no con-; J9aJvL4bfressiLhat make them. s-.4"'r ' '""Q-S, :J f; ; "Any number of reasons' - may throw a youngster into journal ism, but only one reason can keep him there. : If he. begins at the, point of greatest advantage he be gins as a reporter and what amaz ing number of sources of . human contact are opened to the report er! He must have to do with all kinds and classes of people;. He sees mankind in ail his moods, and sees him at close range. He sees him in misfortune and in fois tune. He sees the hovel artd the palace and if he has the ptuff that makes good reporters-and pelase don't forget this; he sees matters of news interest in both places. "Human passion in its varying aspects is revealed to him,' and "if he has gotten ' the reportroial spirit he glories In the opportun ity In turn ta reveal to others through the printed word what it has een his to see and, learn.
