"Good" Newspaper Pubished In Spite Of Public, Colorado Publisher Writes (from the Bent County, Colo. Democrat) About 90 percent of the pressure put on a newspaper is pressure to put out a mediocre paper. Sometimes I marvel that newspapers, by and large, turn out to be as good as they are. Because, frankly, only about 10 percent of the pressure wc get is in the direction of putting out a good newspaper. As a result, any time you find a good newspaper you find behind it a newspaperman who has resisted a good share of the bad pressures. Don't kid yourself that any newspaper is able to resist them all. Here are some examples: 1. A young man who's been fined for drunken driving demands that we keep his name out of the paper. Reason: His mother has a baa heart. 2. It's 108 degrees in the shade. "Don't put that in the paper" cries one, "it won't do our town any good"! 3. There's the club or church group that gets a long mimeographed "news release" from the national headquarters with instructions to the local people to retype it, insert appropriate names, etc. These same people who trundle in with that sort of news would be the first to complain if we filled our paper with news. is s There about who the man to open a new placefof 4. business.

We have the choice of leaving it out or running it and then being met with a very small hello maybe no hello at all. Like we said, most of the pressure is in the direction of a mediocre paper. non-loc- al Time-aftcr-ti- News 'n Views Of The Chamber Report from Washington . . . AEC Reassures Dawson On Atom Politics Begin To Seep Into The Conversation On Street Corners As (by 6. T. Poulion, uMiintndnt) You will note in the news items in this issue that Mr. Charles L. President Dwight D. Eisenhower is a man steeped in how to manthings military. He has spent a lifetime learning the order in to vanquish enemy. He is, in euver his forces onlookers. we of most than short, far better informed But now and then we can't help finding ourself puzzled indeed by Ike's foreign policy. The very thought of seeking as peaceful disarmament with a nation so untrustworthy be nation our of right Russia is shocking. The motives may and proper, but the theory bears questioning. How is it possible to trust a nation which cannot trust itself? Few months go by without the Red government how high on the "purging" some official. It matters not ladder he may have climbed; the only difference is the length of the fall when he's knocked down. Stalin ruled as a totalitarian dictator whose decisions were never questioned. Yet once he was dead, he was denied by the very men he once ruled. Molotov valiantly carried out his nation's dictates, even to the point of making his actions ridiculous in United Nations chambers. But he was not above political exterminOn goes the record with hundreds of minor officials. Yet we are willing to take peaceful measures with such a country! A treaty signed today prohibiting further armament may mil and void with the next Russian government. And that be government may take power tomorrow! We still contend Teddy Roosevelt's foreign policy had more impact than any other: "Speak softly, but carry a big stick". Our nation's defenses, not her intentions, will impress Russia far more than anything else wa can do.
