ROTARY AND THE PRESS
! MOULDING PUBLIC OPINION CONTACT WITH WORLD AFFAIRS [nv telegraph—own correspondent] CHRISTCHURC'H, Monday Rotary and the press were identified as two powerful influences for the moulding of public opinion and the promotion of truth and international goodwill, in an address by Mr. James Hogg, of Dunedin, at the national conference of Rotary club*. He said that the columns of the press, in leading articles, cabled news, and special articles, exerted a tremendous influence in the councils of the nations, and in shaping and forming public opinion. "The people's whole contact —ontside radio—with world affairs is through the columns of the newspapers," said Mr. Hogg. "Without them Rotary would have only limited channels of expression for its aims and objects."
