Newspaper Production
Faces Radical Changes

Mechanical production of news-
papers is in for some sweeping
changes, and we will probably see
them within the next five years,
according to Philip T. Rich, pub-
lisher of the Midland Daily News.
Speaking before members of
the journalism school, Rich pre-
dicted that present expensive

tablished, along with broadened
old age pension and other social
security measures and a long-
range, government - supported
housing program.
And he said "the time has come
for Alaska and Hawaii to be ad-
mitted to the Union as states."
To his list of immediate pro-
posals the President added these:
1-Discrimination "based on
race, or creed, or color" must be
abolished. He will send Congress
a special message on the subject.
2-Our natural resources must
be further developed and "we must
vigorously defend our natural
wealth against those who would
misuse it for selfish gain."
3-Farmers, with a 1946 aver-
age income pf $779, should be en-
abled to approach the $1,288 av-
erage of non-farm workers and all
low incomes should be increased.
One fifth of our families, he said,
have incomes less than $850 a
year.
4-Industry should invest at
least $50 billion in the next few
years to help increase our present
record production by one-third.
Firm action should be taken
against "the concentration of eco-
nomic power and other elements
of monopoly."
5-"Many thousands of dis-
placed persons, still living in
camps overseas, should be al-
lowed entry into the United
States."
6-By tariff reduction and other
methods, including aid to Greece
and Turkey "in preserving their
integrity against foreign pres-
auips," we must wok k toward
"world peace based on principles
of freedom and justice and the
equality of all nations."
7-"A special program of as-
sistance to China, to provide ur-
gent relief needs and to speed
reconstruction, will be submitted,
to the Congress."

processes will be discarded in fa-
vor of direct typing and photog-
raphy. He cited the photoengrav-
ing process used by the Chicago
papers during the current typo-j
graphers strike as a successful at-
tempt at a new and cheaper!
printing process.
Men with Cameras
Reporter-photographers are an-
other novelty that will become the
usual, especially for small papers,
Rich said. "Few small papers can
afford full-time photographers,
but most of them can use reporter-
photographers," he explained.
With the present demand for
pictures in the papers, it is a good
idea for all reporters to carry
cameras and learn how to use
them, Rich added.
Radio Tit-in
Radio and newspapers are going
to work even more closely together
in the future, Rich continued. "In
many of the smaller towns I think
that radio and newspaper work
will be closely linked," he ex-
plained, commenting that "pro-
duction of newspapers by radio is
already a fact."
The most important thing is
that the newspaper business keep
on progressing, in mechanical,
business and editorial procedure,
Rich concluded.
Mineralogist
Will Lecture
Prof. Paul Niggli, eminent Smiss
scientist, will deliver the first of
two lectures on the earth sciences
at 4:00 p.m. today in Rm. 2054,

erals of the Swiss Alps and Their
Origin," is intended primarily for
mineralogy, geology and chemis-
try students.
Prof. Niggli's second lecture,
"The Science of Snow and Ava-
lanches," will be held at 4:15 p.m.
tomorrow in the Rackham Am-
phitheatre. It will be accompanied

ient of the Washington A. Roeb-
ling Medal for oustanding con-

eralogy and is associated with the
University of Zurich, where he has
achieved distinction both as an
administrator and as a scientist.

Bryan To Give
Lecture, Film
Of Soviet Trip
Noted Photographer
To Be at Hill Tuesday
Julien Bryan, noted photog-
rapher of documented films, will
present "Russia Re-visited" at
8:30 p.m. Tuesday in Hill Audi-
torium in an Oratorical Associa-
tion lecture.
Bryan has made nine trips to
Russia since 1930. photographing
the Russian people and country-
side. In his last trip, which was
made after the war, he made the
film to be presented here.
Unusual Film
Believed to be the first com-
plete motion picture in color on
the Soviet Union made by a for-
eigner, the film covers current
life in Russia with pictures of fac-
tories, thousing developments,
churches, collective farms, schools
and theatres.
Travelling as an unofficial ob-
server for UNRRA, Bryan was
permitted by the Russians to pho-
tograph almost all the categories
of Soviet life in which he was in-
terested. The film is uncensored,
and was not developed until his
return to America.
Comparisons Possible
Because of his man trips to
Russia, Bryan is one of the few
Americans able to view the Soviet
today and compare it to the Rus-
sia of five, ten or fifteen years
ago. He has appeared here five
times in lecture-film presenta-
tions, covering people of all parts
of the world.
Tickets for this lecture will be
placed on sale at 10 a.m. Monday

Incident' Will

yan as one of the best pictures
he had ever seen, will be pre-
sented by IRA and the Art Cin-
cmxa League at 8:30 p.m. tomorrow
and Saturday in Kellogg Audi-
torium.
"This picture is a realistic and
sxrutai Iuay of lynching and the
tragedy of mob hysteria," Runyan
said.
The unreasonable and brutal
actions of a mob, who lynch two
Suspect cattle thieves, and their
subsequent horror at what they
have done when the men are
oVed innocent, form the plot
of the film.
The bewilderment of Dana An-
drews, who portrays one of the
men taken to be lynched, and the
indignatioan of Henry Fonda as
a bystander to the brutality, typ-
ify the reactions of men affected
by, but not involved in the mob
action.
"Boundary Lines," an Interna-
tional Film Foundation produc-
t ion which presents a new ap-
proach to animation and sound
synchronization, will be shown
along with' "The Ox-Bow Inci-
dent." The film attempts to point
out to Americans that they must
realize that since boundary lines
are of their own making, they can
make of them what they will.

Charging that nearly all uni-
versities of western civilization
inculcate a faith in analytical
materialism, Dr. John A. Cole-
man, in an interview yesterday;
offered two suggestions to coun-
teract this attitude.
This attitude is taught uncon-
sciously by professors, Dr. Cole-
man declared. "We must arouse
faculty and student Christians
to awareness and then change the
attitude of teaching methods so
that professors make clear what
the real basis of teaching of opin-
ions is when relevant to their
course- -
Spreading Christianity
Dr. Coleman is secretary of the
World Christian Federation with
headquarters at Geneva, Switzer-
land. He is visiting units of the
United Student Christian Coun-
cil, of which almost all inter-
guild groups are members, in or-
der to propagate the principles of
Christians in universities.
Deploring the fact that "success
means to be successful material-
ly," Dr. Coleman disparaged the
general belief that truth can be
discovered by analyzing things
and finding a materialistic ex-
planation for them.
Search for Faith
It is impossible for students not

to have faith, but the real prob-
lem is what that faith is to be,
Dr. Coleman asserted.
"The university is a reflection
of society rather than the leader,"
he said. "Universities have lost all
sense of direction and are merely
a pale reflection of tie fragmen-
tation of society."
Give Concert
For Children
Grade school students in Ann
Arbor and surrounding areas will
have the opportunity to attend
the Young People's Concert to be
presented at 3 p.m. today in Hill
Auditorium by the University
Symphony Orchestra in conjunc-
tion with the Department of Music
Education.

Overture to "Oberon" by Von
Weber; Til Eulenspiegel, Strauss;
The Story of Celeste, Kleinsinger:
Trumpet Concerto in E-flat, third

Children must be under the su-
pervision of a teacher to be ad-
mitted.
