N0 REPORTERS ON CHINESE PAPERS Most News Has to Filter Into Olfices Peking, Nov. 19. (#—China, the scene of perhaps the most anclent effort at newspaper publication, is trudging along in the rear of mod- ern journalistic development, For instance, the papers have editors, but no reporters, Such news as is not furnished by the scores of subsidized native agencies and a dozen foreign purveyors, just filters in to the papers or ig furnished hy retained underlings in government offices, military headquarters, t houses, restaurants and theate Occaslonally an editor will “cover’ an event, but nothing approaching American methods of news gather- ing obtains in China. Fond of Gossip Besides leading daily editorials generally dealing with some phase papers cater to the native fondness for gossip and spicy tidbits of lo- cal news, and to a lively sense of humor. In the larger centers, illus- trated supplements and special edi- tions are being attempted. Cartoons are popular forms of expression, and in at least one instance a wo- man’s page has been developed. Although relieved from old im- perfal restraint, publishers are still subject to official domination. Within recent months one editor was shot apparently out of hand, for offending a military official by his writings. Arc Small In Size A Chinese newspaper usually con- | sists of one to four or five sheets, divided into four inch horizontal spaces and printed, with further vertical subdivisions, in columns of type. The reading is from top to bottom and by columns of charac- ters from right to left. Posters and billboards long have isfied the native desire for pub- licity and the utility of the news- paper in that direction is slow in gaining rec ition, Such advertise- ments as appear in the more pro- gressive centers deal largely with theaters, teahouses, lotteries, patent medicines, cigarettes, banks and e NEW BRITAIN DAILY HBRALD, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 19, 1926. - the Germans, and vely became fac- American life, AROUND IN CYCLE : should | died, Stage New York, Nov. 19.
