********. * * * *
“Few people appreciate the service rendered by
the daily and weekly press during the period of economic
adjustment through which the country has recently
emerged.
“Newspaper revenues have declined 15 to 25 per
cent during the past 15 months, and this is in many in
stances more than the difference between profit and
loss. Yet most newspapers have maintained their or
ganizations intact, paid the same wage scales, the
same price for paper, and pocketed their losses with
out a complaint
“If a merchant doesn’t sell his goods, he still has
them. They may depreciate to some extent But they
are still on his shelves. Not so with a newspaper. Labor
and paper costs are substantially the same, regardless
of the volume of advertising carried.
“Be it said to the everlasting credit of the news
papers, however, they have maintained a buoyant spir
it of optimism, minimized evidences of fear and trepi
dation, and encouraged and fostered every effort to
stem this unfortunate tide of pessimism and fear.
“It has been a ‘testing time1 for the newspapers, of
America, and the better papers will emerge from this
crisis stronger than before, because they have justified
their existence and demonstrated their usefulness.
