Newspaper Page Textla Tke- Day's lews By FRANK JENKINS In New York the other day. Dean Edward Barrett of the Co lumbia Graduate School of Journal ism, offered the interesting opinion that in the average newspaper of today the public gets too much roth and too little substance. Why? Well, he says, the public gets too much froth because too few people WANT substance. The newspaper is a private business enterprise. Like the grocery store or the apparel shop, it has to give its customers what they want. Oth erwise, they won't buy. He adds: "In too many American cities, the newspaper is mediocre at best, radio news is available chiefly in an endless repetition of five-minute capsules and television news is often non-existent at normal eve ning listening hours. "As a result, the thoughtful citi zen who seeks to be reasonably well informed must make EX TRAORDINARY efforts to do so." Why this situation? Dean Barrett thinks the funda mental reason is that modern man kind wants acutely to be ENTER TAINED but isn't too' much con cerned with gaining useful knowl edge. So He says in effect Modern man tends to buy those newspapers that entertain him and to refrain from buying those that insist on feeding him with a diet of useful information. And, increas ingly, he turns to radio and tele visionwhich feed him entertain ment with a soup ladle and give him useful information with an eye-dropper. He concludes that the newspaper that concentrates prime attention on reporting and interpreting the news has a much better chance of success than one that strives to make entertainment its main ap peal, and adds: "The paper that overemphasizes entertainment values will be in for trouble because it is bound to fall behind television and radio in en tertainment values." The point he makes is that en tertainment is the business of TV and radio. Reporting and inter preting the news is the business of the newspaper. What he is saying to. his journalistic brethren is: "Shoemaker, stick to your last." In conclusion, I'd like to add a word. Dean Barrett lives in a h.u g e city. He reads the newspapers of a huge city. Like the rest of us, he is inclined to be influenced by his environment. - The news is based on people people and what they do. News about people we KNOW is im mensely more interesting than news about people we don't know and never even heard of. In our huge cities, people really know very few other people. Their ac quaintance is apt to be confined to those with whom they are asso ciated in their day-to-day jobs. In the big cities, people seldom know even their next-door neighbors. So- The big -metropolitan newspapers can tell interestingly only of the kind of people whose names are known to everybody high society people, show people, night spot entertainers, the criminals and the shady type of people who get fre quently into the courts. The kind of people who furnish the FLUFF in the news. In the smaller communities, we know all kinds of people. Not just the people who live in our block. Because we know them, what they do is NEWS to us. For this reason, the news that is reported and in terpreted by the smaller newspa pers leans much less to entertain ment and much more to construc tive achievement. It is MEATIER. I'd like to suggest to Dean Bar rett that, for a while, at least, he do more reading of the so-called country press and less reading of the big metropolitans. I think he'll find that out in the eountry we print BETTER news papersnewspapers with less fluff and more solid NEWS.

The return will enable Oregon Water Corporation to meet its debt obligations and provide an ade quate return on the equity portion of the capital invested in the en terprise," Hill commented. In answer to a protest by the city of Klamath Falls that the fringe-area customers should bear the burden of increased rates, he said it was more expensive and "contrary to the public interest to abandon the system-wide basis of rate-making in favor of an area basis. "The increase in franchise tax and in the number of fire hy drants has indicated a consider able growth in demand on the com-1 pany within the city limits," Hill added. The order for the increase was signed at Salem on Saturday morn ing, the commissioner's office said Oregon Water Corporation has approximately 8,000 domestic eus-' tomers here. The average yearly . walcr bill for domestic customers -..ne km,t tl Animint nf (ho hil' ' runs about $30.

Apology By U.S. Termed Victory HAVANA (AP) The newspaper of Prime Minister Fidel Castro's revolutionary movement Saturday'.count called Washington's apology for a private plane raid "a moral vic tory." But it said apology was not enough and demanded sweep ing action against anti-Castro ac tivities in the United States. Revolucion provided the first semiofficial reaction to the Wash ington note of Friday expressing regrets that lhe plane escaped U. S. detection and took olf for Cuba from a base near Miami. Castro's government has yet to comment on the note. The United States must sec to it that not a single plane "again rises from North American soil to altack Cuba," the newspaper said. Revolucion also called on Wash ington to denounce activities "of war criminals and their associ ales who operate in that country spurred by statements and atti tudes of officials and legislators bent on economic, diplomatic and even military aggression," against Cuba.

Brown's 60 day reprieve for Caryl Chessman, today promised to fight any bill abolishing capital punishment. The anger stemmed from feel ings that Brown avoided a deci sion that belonged only to him, and from the opinion that he should never have linked Chess man's death with the capital pun ishment issue. State Sen. Hugh M. Burns ID Fresno', president pro-tempore and one of the most influential men in the upper house, declared Friday: "I see no excuse what ever for allowing this convicted criminal lo cheat the hangman any longer." Burns, who pushed Brown's $1,750,000,000 water program through the Senate last year, re called that lhe legislature had "repeatedly" turned down bills lo end capital punishment. "I am convinced," he said, the Governor has let the people of California down in refusing to carry out the laws ot the state." Burns was also convinced that the governor places the Chess man matter on a call for a spe cial session, "the Senate will turn down this proposal again." ; In addition to Burns, other ot Brown's leading lieutenants part ed company with the governor when he announced early Friday that he would reprieve Chessman and call a special session next month on abolishing capital pun ishment. ; 7 """ Even ' lawmakers who oppose capital punfshment and who sup'-", porled earlier attempts or its re peal said they could not take the same stand now that the Issue had become part of the Chess man case. Scarlet Fever Peri! Cited "It is dangerous to think too lightly of scarlet fever," Dr. S. M, Kcrron, Klamath County health of ficer, warned Saturday. "Scarlet fever Is a streptococcic infection which may be serious and which, if not treated, may result in rheu matic fever later." Dr. Kcrron said that a number of cases of the disease are known to exist in suburban area: of Klam ath Falls. The information has reached the health department through the schools and the cases have not been reported officially lo his department. Scarlet fever responds very well lo treatment," Dr. Kcrron said, "but should not be allowed lo go on without treatment. Par ents should' call their family doc tors and get treatment for the children who are ill and prophylac tic treatment for other members of the family." Symptoms of scarlet fever are sore throat and temperature for 24 hours, the health officer explained. Then a rash appears which lasts for three or four days. The Klamath County Public Heallh office had 217 cases ot in fluenza reported for the week. 'Parents should keep children at home alter an attack of influenza until temperature has been normal for at least two days," Dr. Kcr ron added.
