Speaks of Newspapers
Snenkpr vesterday was Eric
W. Allen Jr., managing editor
of the Mall Tribune, whose
subject was "The World of
Newspapers." '
He described, the varying
"character' and personality
of individual newspapers, cit
ins several in Oregon as hav-
. ing clear and distinct traits of
personality. This he applaud
ed, saying that each paper
should have an individual and
recognizable character. i
Allen said that the aim of
most editorial writers is less
to convince, than to stimulate
thought on matters of mutual
concern among the paper's
readers. '
"If he has accomplished
that," he said, "If he has man
aged to get his readers'
thought-processes working on
some subject of common im
portance or interest, he has
- succeeded in his most Impor-
. tant job." , ' . ' i
Welcome Controversy
Editors usually w e 1 co m e
controversy subjects of public
concern, Allen declared, be
cause "there are usually two
sides to every question, and
the truth, or what approxi
mates the truth, will not be
found unless both sides can
be fully considered." !
He said that the problem of
keeping well-informed is al
most impossible in . today's
complex world, and that this
is of concern to newspaper
men. ' ' .
The major function of a
newspaper is to provide the
essential information on which
citizens base their esonomic,
political and social decisions,

that the newspaper is also
called upon to provide enter
tainment and news of sports,
society and many other mat
ters of widespread interest.
The difficulty of doing all
these varied tasks within the
limitations of space and time
were described by the speak
er, who declared that no news
paper, no matter how big or
excellent, does them all to the
satisfaction of those who put
out the paper.
Wort Than Puule
Fitting in all these things,
he declared, "is worse than
working a jigsaw puzzle, for
a jigsaw puzzle has a finite
number of pieces, and ' one
knows that, eventually, each
one will fit. Trying to fit the
elements of a daily paper to
gether is more difficult, be
cause we work with an almost
infinite, and a constantly
changing, number of factors
each day."
He described briefly . the
thousands of different opera
tions which go into producing
"a complete new product,
unique and distinctive, in our
case some 18,000 units of it,
every day."
Allen said that In his view
the 21 daily and 100 weekly
and semi-weekly papers in
Oregon range from "poorV to
"pretty good" In- comparison
to the job others are doing,
But he questioned .whether
there is, anywhere, a paper
doing as good a job as its
workers would like to do,
Despite that, he .said, that
most newspaper, men and wo
men put up with the frustra
tions ' and necessary compro
mises of the work because it
is exciting, satisfying and in
triguing. Entertainment at the meet
ing was furnished by mem
