'Partners in Freedom' f I This is National Newspaper Week —the one period set aside annually when members of the press can “toot their own horn” with all modesty. All papers are accused of telling their advertisers the importance of “selling” and then failing to impress the public of their functions and how important they are in a democracy. If the people are to have the final say-so on our gov ernment they must first, be informed, and then, act on that information. And we know of no better way in which they are informed than by newspapers. They may get a smattering of the news via announce ments on radio or television, but to learn the details they rely on newspapers. If you doubt this — don't read a paper for a week and then try to discuss current events with those who have read them. We are inclined to believe there is no business the public deals with continuously that is as misunderstood as the newspaper business — especially a small town weekly. Readers criticize the editor for what he puts in the paper, for what he leaves out or the manner in which he records it. They fail to recognize that it is a business and as such depends on its revenue for its live lihood. , There are those administrators of tax-paying bodies (we have had one recently) who believe we should print only what they release and that the chairman of the board should not be called on to get what the adminis trator chooses not to release. Then there are those patrons who do not wish to pay the charges of a professional photographer for wedding pictures and think it is news that should be fully taken care of by the local paper when the daughter gets mar ried. We have businesses that are “too small to advertise” — businesses that are “too large for our small paper.” The editor has to sort what comes over his desk into two classes — it’s either news or it’s advertising, and if it’s the latter, must be charged for at going rates. The advertiser supports the publication you read each week — it’s his check that affords you the local paper. But you, Mr. and Mrs. Reader, control the adver tiser! Unless the advertiser is sold on the idea that you read the paper, he won’t spend his money for the ads; hence, there will cease to be a hometown publication. I il So readers and newspapers are Partners in Freedom!! ARRIVES FROM FT. LEWIS Pvt. Richard Meisinger arrived Saturday for a two - week visit with his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Robert Meisinger. At the end of his leave he will report to Ft. Rucker, Ala. EXPRESSION OF THANKS I wish to express my sincere appreciation to Dr. K. E.

Oregon Phone 372-2253 Jehovah’s Witnesses from Nyssa were among members of 16 con gregations attending a recent area convention in Ontario. Marvin L. Holien of Brooklyn, N.Y., was speaker at the conclud ing session and pointed to pride and selfishness as major causes of local, national and interna tional problems. He noted that conflicts such as the Vietnam war, civil rights dem onstrations and crippling strikes are typical happenings throughout the world today. The speaker said that to count less millions of persons, failing health is a matter of prime con cern, and charged that inborn pride and selfishness thwarts solutions to most of today’s prob lems. Holien stated that men actually need an entirely new system. He called for lives to be brought into harmony with the Christian sys tem — and the enjoyment of ■ | satisfaction for all needs under Christ’s reign.
