JUNEAU AND DOUGLAS TELEPHONE CO. adv. SERVES HIM RIGHT- LET HIM STAY IN JAIL- ONLY RPOWDIES FIGHT ! BROT THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE—JUNEAU ALASKA Kent Cooper Writes Book Abggl News By JOHN SELBY For the first time in a good many ! years the directing head of a great American enterprise himself tells the whole story of his greatest achievement. The man is Kent Sooper, (picture above) gencfal | manager of The Associated Press, ‘and the story is to be found in | “Barrers Down,” just off the press |of Farrar and Rinehart, New York | City. This is what happened, Twenty- sight years ago Mr. Cooper found i ‘cablegram lying in a basket in New York offices of The As- ocited Press. It was from La Na- ion, one of Buenos Aires’ great ncwspapers, and it asked that As- ocited Press facilities be made | ovailable for its use.This was not pecially remarkable, but the fact ithat the message was unanswered { impressed Mr. Cooper. He asked | his predecessor as general man- }-mer. Melville Stone, why there had | ih«-rn no reply. | The reason was that Mr. Stone| | felt the lack of an answer was ;enough; because of an agreement | with what then world news | monopoly it was impossiblg for | | The Associated Press to serve a| | South American paper. It started| Mr. Cooper thinking, and nl-; though he was officially not con-| prned, since his job was to super-| ¢ the traffic department of The Associated Press, he saw no rea- son why he should not look into the situation | He found that the world had been effectively divided among| three great news agencies: Réuter: in England, Havas in France and Woolf in Germany. Of these the most powerful was Reuters. There; were many other national agencies and all of them were bound to the| main stem. The American coopera- tive was effectively barred from honest competition, and what was: much worse, Mr. Cooper felt, the ideals of a free press were sub- merged. In one way or another, the world combine was responsive 0 government control, and its news was colored by naticnalistic de- mands. “Barriers Down” is the detailed nd dramatic story of Mr. Cooper’s long battle against this monopoly, not for the financial gain of The Associated Press, because that or-| canzation does not serve for profit, but so that a free interchange of free news might be had. And it was undertaken in the belief that the basis of world security is the unfet-) tered transmission and publication' of news. i RECRUITS ARE BEING SOUGHT, NURSES" AIDES Enrollments may still be made in‘\ the new class for Nur Aids whose instruction will begin next | week, Mrs. Fred R.
