(Longest in the world.) OFFICIAL PAPER OF THE CITY OF KLAMATH FALLS "Let us have faith that right makes might, and in that faith let tis to the end dare to do our duty as xce understand it" Abraham Lincoln PUBLIC CAN'T BE LED OR DRIVEN Many editors constantly harrangue themselves, and whomever they can find to Iuten, on their duty towards the public. ( "We must be the vanguard of civilization," thev say, 'forever leading the ignorant into paths of wisdom and virtue, and steering them away from damnation pitfalls." Melville F. Ferguson, managing editor of the Phila delphia Record, sees his duty rather differently, and said so in an interview this week. "We cannot lead the public," Mr. Ferguson said. ''And we cannot drive them. We can meet their demands in moderation. "A newspaper, quite unlike a preacher, must give rthe public what it wants, within the limits of decency. If a newspaper becomes too ardent a preacher of what the public does not want, its circulation is apt to walk out, and leave it preaching to empty seats. "But. in catering to the public's sense of humor, a vulgar thing at best, and the public's craving for sensa tion, we can exclude from publication the more nauseating of scandals, and feel, thereby, we have made some effort to curb, if not drive or lead. "In other words, the public wants crime news. A newspaper must supply this demand, but need not give it out in alopaihic docs. We need nut exploit crime and stick it out as a bargain attraction in the newspaper front windows." If the public, as a mass, cannot be led. Mr. Ferguson does not despair of his reporters, and he believes an editor's duty is so to control his staff that it produces a newspaper that is a fair, accurate, undistorted mirror of ita community. Thus he has drawn up a code of reportorial ethics for the Record, the enforcement of which he makes his special task. Of 25 rules which make up the code, the following five are underscored : "Get both sides of your story. When the circum stances reflect upon any accessible individual or group learn what is to be said in explanation or defense. Fair ness and justice demand it. "Be accurate. Remember that in most cases the story you write will be read by some people who have tirst-hand knowledge of some of the facts. They will be quick to detect inaccuracies, and to characterize the paper as unreliable if it prints statements at variance with their own observations. "Keep your personal opinions, or the supposed opin ions of the paper, out of your story. Stick to facts In terpretations and comment belong in the editorial columns 'Avoid ridicule except when it is conveyed by a plain recital of facts. Nothing makes enemies more quickly and one enemy of thj paper exerts more influence than ten friends. "Never write a story that you cannot successfully defend when an irate reader comes to the office to de mand a retraction. If you keep this rule strictly in mind all the lime you will keep out of libel suits." o About the best thing to take a little of, for your Htomach's sake, is precaution.
