XXXXXXXXXX RADIO PRAISED FOR BOOSTINC ITSELF item: Captioned "Under That Bushel", Editor & Publisher had this "Imagine a conference of television, radio broadcasting, or motion picture experts in Cleveland recently. The experts would have been accompanied by public relations counsel adept in populariz¬ ing the technicalities under discussion. Wire services would have carried the story to clients. It would have been well covered in Cleveland, "When newspaper experts meet, however, they meet in a vacuum. They keep their own light snugly hid beneath the bushel, "The mechanical conference of the American Newspaper Pub¬ lishers* Association at Cleveland was undoubtedly 99^ technical. Yet what newspaper men are doing to improve the product that so many peo¬ ple read each day could be told in popular style as news that could properly find space even these invasion days. Only a stick or two was printed in Cleveland, Wires were uniformly silent when they might have sung a psalm in praise of the press. If press agents can dream and newspapers accept stories about the amazing future of television, there should be writers in newspaper shops who can produce behind the scenes stories of what newspapers are doing and plan to do, " XXXXXXXXXX 9
