Works dealing with travel, history and biography are being called for in in- creasing nutnbers, especially those pertain- ing to foreign countries. There is no doubt that the war and the important events which have followed it have given the American people a wider outlook on the world and a desire to know more of the countries and peoples which are playing such important parts in its af- fairs. Newspapers, generally, both dailies and weeklies, find that their readers are interested in a wider range of topics than formerly, and are giving more space to news and editorials dealing with national and international matters. This all means that the people of: America, and particularly the rural pop- ulation, are outgrowing the narrow pro- vineialism of the past and are. eager for contact with the rest of the world, through books, newspapers, moving pictures and the radio. | PUBLISHERS AND TVA Newspaper publishers in the South are casting a critical eye toward the Ten- nessee Valley Authority and its extensive free publicity program, whereby this gov- ernment agency in its “news” releases seeks to obtain advertising for its approved electrical appliances without cost. ' In a bulletin to members of the South- ern Newspaper Publishers’ Association, Secretary Cranston Williams asks: “Why should any government agency competing with private enterprises not pay for ad- vertising and publicity just like a private concern?” He also cites the fact that the Au- thority recently dist*ibuted 300,000 copies of an elaborate’ 12-page advertising pamphlet by mail, postage free under gov- ernment frank, for which a private con- cern would have had to pay $13,500. for postage alone at the third class rate. These government pamphlets were mailed free as first class matter. Secretary Williams asks the further question as to how private business men and newspapers can compete with this ad- vertising, the expense of which is borne by the taxpayers of the entire nation. Newspapers of the country have been most generous in giving free space to vari- ous government establishments at all times. They can hardly be blamed for protesting when the government invades the field of ! private business and adopts the unfair methods mentioned in competing with newspaper advertising. THE NEW CHARGE LAW (Tampa Tribune) James M, Carson, a successful legal fight for free speech and a free who previously conducted press in behalf of the Sanford Herald, argued be- | Wednesday that the prohibiting circula- fore the Supreme Court section of the primary law tion of new charges against a candidate within 18 constitutional. days of election is Besides being unconstitutional, Lawyer Carson declared the pro- hibition tyrannical, dictatorial, undemocratic, sup- pressive and other things.
