We take news- papers for granted and seldom give a passing thought to the important part they piay in the life, social and eco- nomic, of a community. Public service, faithfully performed, should be the credo of every newspaper publisher. If he colors his news, so that it will be in accord with his views’ on a public question, he is blazed; if he fails to give both sides of a hews story of public import, the hustings, not the publish- er’s chair, is the proper place for him. The right place for a publisher to express his attitude on a public question is the editorial page. But even then he should not distort facts to try to gain his end. If he does that, his readers are quick to see he is unfair, and a palpably unfair argument convinces nobody. Instead, it repels readers, drives them into a determined stand against him. Such unfairness is particularly condemnable in a community served by only one newspaper. The “other side” is then given no chance to express its views to the newspaper’s readers. The Citizen, aside from a few exceptions, most of them of short duration, has been the only newspaper in Key West for half a century. Since it ‘came into its pres- ent ownership, not once has it been accused of unfairness inthe presentation of the news, Time and again, it has been commended sfor its/fairness. Regardles§ of whether or not it fawors a question, it permits both sides to give its views for or against the question, A newspaper loses its influence when its readers re-} gard it as unfair. A visitor from one of the country’s great | cities, four years ago, told The Citizen publisher and the editor that a political endorsement by one of the news-! Papers in that city is considered a sure defeat for the can- | didate endorsed. Then he related a story of a friend who | was “sure” to win an election up to the time the news-| paper in question endorsed him. The visitor said further: “Gloom prevailed in our headquarters the morning | of the endorsement. We knew it meant Jim’s defeat, and | ‘Restaurants the ballots, when counted, proved we were right.” When a newspaper gets that reputation in its home- it not only loses all its influence but also becomes farget of ribald jokes, In closing, The Citizen thinks that National News- paper Week is an ‘opportune time for The Citizen to thank the City Manager, the city and county commission, and other officials, all civic and fraternal bodies and the pub- Ne generally for their cooperation in its efforts to keer thi | President of the National Restau its readers well informed in the daily presentation of the news, It’s All Wholesome And Free ow ’ y & i Have Scavenger | | items.
