persons. Ivan Shields is man

The Salem Capital Journal is included In a list of 100 out of
1769 daily papers selected as "representative samples of United
States newspapers."
v Selection of the Capital Journal, the only daily newspaper
out of 21 in Oregon to be so honored, was made in a survey
conducted by the University of
Wisconsin school of Journalism
and the public Information divi
sion of the Department of the
Army. Lt. Col. Wendell J.
Coats and Capt. Steve W. Mul
key. represented the army in
conducting the survey.
The basic approach made to
the study provided for the se
lection of a "purposive sample"
that is, a deliberate selection
of the newspapers that make up
the sample In such a manner
as to give a representative cross
section of all 1769 dailies in the
United States.
The process of selecting this
rots-section was based upon a
stratification of U. S. English
language, general circulation
dailies with respect to the fol
lowing objective characteris
tics: geographical location, size
of circulation, time of publica
tion, use of major news services,
nearness to army Installations,
and ownership.
; The army's concern In the
study was to determine the re
action of the daily press in the
United States towards the per
sonnel, organization, policies,
and activities of the depart
ment of the army.
In making this determination,
news stories, both wire and of
local origin, editorials, and pic
tures used, were considered.
- Thirty day subscriptions were
taken of the newspapers studied
with classifications made of all
articles, pictures, or opinion ex
pressed in regard to all armed
forces, including the navy and
air force.
... y
The report of the findings
cover 31 pages, together with
even more pages of charts and
reproductions of front pages of
the representative newspapers
selected. I
Incidentally, reproduction of !
the first page of the Capital
Journal issued Saturday, March
S, 1949, is the first of the news
paper reproduction in the report.
This issue carries a three-column
pictorial layout of Salem's
new naval and marine center:
a statement for peace by Sec
retary Johnson, a request of re
vision of the armed forces by
Gen. Eisenhower and a story
from Frankfort, Germany head
ed "Beseigcd Russians Roar Off
to Berlin Soviet Zone."
...
The Portland Oregon Journal
was chosen for study but due
to a prolonged printers' strike
at the time the survey was in
progress, the Seattle Post-Intelligencer
was substituted. The
latter newspaper, together with
the Seattle Times and the
Spokesman Review of Spokane
were the only other Pacific
Northwest papers, selected along
with the Salem Capital Journal,
