T)EGGE & BURRELL 3S8 NORTH HltJH 8TKKET Willard Batteries Oregon Editors Meet In Eugene January 14-15 University of Oregon, Eugene, Dec. 30. The annual professional conference of Oregon newspaper editors, publishers and writers, which is held In the winter months each year at the university school of journalism, has been set for Friday and Saturday, January 14 and IB, according to Eric W. Al len, dean of the school, who is chairman of the committee on ar rangements and program. The proceedings will Include three ses sions on business problems which will take the form of "short cours es" of the post-graduate order, two banquets at which questions .'of professional standards and prac tices will be presented, an election of officers, an automobile excur sion, the presentation of a feature by students of the school of jour nalism, an inspection of the school and of new buildings for the uni versity made possible by the pass age of the millage bill, and several entertainment features. The business sessions, which are declared to be of unusual practi cal importance, are (headed "X, Short Course in Newspaper Law," "A Short Course in Foreign Ad vertising," and "A Short Course in Newspaper Management," each to be followed by general discussion. Dean W. G. Hale, of the univer sity law school, has made a spe cial study of the laws of Oregon re lating to newspapers. It turns out that there has been an unusually small amount of newspaper litiga tion in Oregon, with the result that few of these laws have ever been tested or interpreted on important points. The rights of reporters, editors, and publishers are there fore left vague on many important matters, i'.nd a committee was ap pointed 'oy the State Editorial as sociation at Astoria last summer to report at this conference as to I means of making the law more definite and certain. The report of this committee will be presented and a proposal discussed of formu lating a newspaper code embody ing the best practice of all states to be presented to the legislature. In the course in newspaper man agement, F. W. Smith, cost and price expert of the Porte Publish ing company at Salt Lake, will act aa one of the Instructors, coming especially to Eugene for the pur pose. An elaborate analysis of the newspaper situation in Oregon is at present being prepared under the supervision of Elbert Hede, ed itor of the Cottage Grove Sentllcn, who is asking every newspaper in the state for an analysis of its ov erhead expenses as well as for an swers to several interesting points of editorial and professional prac tice. The foreign advertising course will be initiated by several .speak ers, among them Charles W. Cng lish, manager of the Better Busi ness bureau of the Portland Ad Olub, and John T. Beamish, who recently took a trip through the east for the express purpose of studying foreign advertising at the source. He visited the advertiser himself and virtually all the big agencies. A proposal for Joint ac tion by Oregon papers will be ad vanced. A discussion Is nlso scheduled of the legal rate bill passed a year ago. , A professional discussion of con siderable interest will be an analy sis of newspaper progress in an Oregon city by the editors of the two rival papers. Ralph R. Cron iae of the Albany Democrat and E. It, lieagan, of theAlhany Herald, have been speeding up the news paper world of Linn county and are going to tell whether their ef forts have been appreciated and In how practical a way by the people of community and how successful their efforts have been.
