HOPE TO SEE TOD SOON Phone TU 4-3371 Newspaper Goals Told NEW YORK (AP)-While news papers must have a prolit to stay alive and strong, prolit is not and cannot be their primary goal, the president of the American News paper Publishers Assn. said today Rather, said AN PA President D Tennant Bryan, of the Richmond Va.) Times-Dispatch and News Leader, "the primary purpose of the newspaper is to hold up to the eyes of its readers a mirror of their life and the world in which they live." He added, in a prepared ad dress at the association's 73rd an nual convention, "Our single minded ethic must be to make that mirror as true and undistort- cd as black ink on white news print will permit." Both friends and foes of news papers, Bryan said, are bewil dered by a business that requires prolit on the one hand, but does not work primarily for profit on the other. "In order to do the job that we should do, we must be independ ent and self-supporting. Profit is our strength; without it, we can not survive but profit is not our primary purpose." fn another prepared address. Robert M. White II, of the Mexico i Mo.) Ledger, decried a "heavy. continuous attack" on advertising. "Like any attack on freedom," he said, "any attack on advertis ing is an attack on the free press of America." White said that some persons in and out of government are at tacking advertising for two main reasons its success pleasured in terms of dollars invested, and the all - important role it plays in strengthening democracy with its freedoms. He said the attack is from two basic directions by taxation and by regulation and is growing. We have a weapon with which to turn back these attacks. The weapon is truth. Truth is on our side. By itself, alone it will win in time." he said.

Income Tax Bill Much Amended SALEM (AP)-lf vou don't like the House Taxation Committee's income tax bill, don't blame Sen. Ben Musa and his wife, Rep. Katherine Musa.
