...ground for missionary work. In tradition, at least, the nation's heartland has long been indifferent to foreign news, except in time of war. Buzzing gadflies in this calm atmosphere, the Cowles papers go far beyond filling their front pages with stories on international affairs from their hardworking five-man Washington bureau headed by Dick Wilson, 53.

Picked by the five-man Metro commission-i.e., the old county commission with its administrative authority delegated to the manager-"Hump" Campbell went on the payroll at $35,000 a year, highest paid public official in the state. A determined man, he efficiently attacked the county's "wasteful, sprawling monstrosity incapable of rendering efficient and economical service."
