Father may read blood-curdling detective stories which mother secretly regrets having around where the children can _ see them. Mother may like bridge and saccharine moving pictures while her oldest son may rebel at such amusements— sneak off with his sister to see an extravaganza, notable for its hot music. Some of the family may listen to the radio—and other members may wish fervidly, at times, that it had never been invented. But the newspaper—today, more than ever before—is an all-family institution, it was emphasized at the annual meeting of the Newspaper Advertising Executives Asssociation in New York last week. With the war intensifying interest in both local and world-wide coverage, the all-family read-. er appeal of the newspaper has reached a new high. C. E. Phillips of the Rockford (Ill). Star, told the newspaper executives. As a consequence, said Publisher Phillips, newspaper advertising today has far greater sales value than it has even enjoyed in the past—and far surpasses, in results, any and all other media: ‘“The educational value of a medium with such wide circulation and keen reader interest,”’ Phillips declared, “is becoming more and more apparent to merchandisers. who seek to sell products of every kind and description. There are . , no other advertising media which can compete with the steady public interest and support that is given to the nation’s newspapers.” : .. We can think of no badge of public favor we would rather have than to ge known as an all-family institution. It is the objectice all publishers seek to achieve—and it is good to know that the nation has adopted the newspaper as its one all-family medium. : COUNTRY MEETS CITY Four years after discovering that San Francisco's public ‘relations with her contiguous rural communities were very bad, the. Chamber of Commerce finds a vast improvement has resulted from efforts made on several fronts to overcome the situation. __ A survey just completed by Raymond W. and David Miller, who made the original study, shows the mistrust and have given place to a favorable interest in the city among people of the back country and even a genuine desire that the agricultural areas may do something to help the city’s progress. "One of the first moves made to remedy the condition was _—# down and making a new start in civil life. SHASTA DAM SLOWLY CURBING SACTO.

The bonus bill which is finally passed may differ considerably from the Baldwin bill; the amount of the bonus for instance, will be the subiect of much debate.
