THE CANADIAN STATESMAN, BOWMANVILLE, ONTARIO PAGE THREZ THURSDAY. AUGTTST 26. 1943 4 The Country Editor and The Wari Text of a report on "Cana- dian Roundup," a regular CBC weekly feature, on Monday, August 16th, 1943, from 10.15 to 10.30 p.m. E.D.T. The re- port was given by James Kin- loch, of the CBC National News Service central news- room, Toronto, a former editor of The Perth Courier and Fort Frances Times, Ont. There's a lot being donc to help win this war in quiet, peaceful places, away from the roar of guns or the rattie of machinery. And a lot of people are doing important war work who don't get milèé-Icredit for it - more often tha fOlot tbey don't realize tbem- selves bow mucb they're doing. For instance, tbere's the coun- try editor. Across Canada there are more than seven bundred weekly ncws- papers, and every one of themn be- came an important part of the war effort the day war was de- clarcd. I made a caîl on one of themn the other day. I went to Bow- manville, Ontario, where Gco. W. James edits and publishes The Canadian Statesman. The Statesman is just one paper, but it's typical. Most of you probably know what a weekly newspaper office is like. They are ail much the same - the worn desks, piled with proofs, and that newspaper office smell, a mixture of printer's ink, bot métal and old paper - the back files, stored under the counter. It docsn't look much like a war plant, but it's as necessary to us as the ncwest airpiane facto)ry. Like many another weekly, the Statesman is being put out by fewer people than it was before the war. It had a staff of nine, and five of tbose people are now in uniform, including the editor's son and nepbew. Some of them bave been replaced, of course, but a newspaper calîs for specialized talents, and experienced people are bard to get. In many cases the editor bim- self bas gone to war - Cbick Spence of The Strathroy Age- Dispatcb, and Bill McLean of The Picton Times, to name only two in Ontario. Various gdvcrnmental depart- ments have also called into use the special gifts of the weekly edit- ors. The tradition of service bebind the weekly newspapers bas ai- ways been one of service to their communities. But that bas been widened and every one of them is now serving its country as mucb as its community. Its columns are thrown wide open whenever the editor is called on to belp out campaigns - for the Red Cross, Victory Loans, sal- vage drives, Greek Relief, Victory Gardens, Aid to Russia, and a dozen other causes. It would be bard to put a* value on ail this free space. And the weekly can tbrow its weight bebind ail these tbings to good advantage because of its very nature. Perhaps more than any other business, that of publisbing week- lies in Canada bas stayed truc to the old Englisb custom of baving the.son carry on the fatber's work.

There are mnany more, but that gives you an idea. These papers stay in the same families because the editors are de- voted to their work, and they work ail the time. Most of them are leading figures in their towns. If they were in the busi- ness only to make money, they wouldn't make a go of it. Be- cause they serve the whole public. The only other institution that dues that is the post office. So these editors swung into ac- tion as smoothly as any bigbly- organized department - and much more quickly. Their ma- chinery was already set up. The Canadian Weekly News- papers Association whicb, imci- dentally, has just held its 24th an- nual convention, bas sent men to Britain and to Ottawa so that tbe subscribers can bear about the war in their own language and, of course, the news columns have been used freely to keep the pub- lic informed on ail phases of the war. But more than that, the load on the weeklies bas been increased steadily. The editors have to sit on more local committees, and tbey have to get out their papers with short staffs, and often with inexperienced belp. They have found themselves working under increasing pres- sure, and although there's nothingi spectacular about their war work, tbey are breaking records every week. Their contribution is taken for granted. And they themiselves think nothing of it. TUE MXING UIOW[ Dy ANNE ALLAN Hydre Home lEonomlit SMALL AMOUNTS INTO GENEROUS SERVINGS Hello Homemakers! Strenuous work in bot summer weather oftcn impairs the appetite. Mother wili prepare the usual portions but left-overs will be found in thé serving disbes.
