SAYS RUSSIA WILL NEVER SHAKE IN

HER SHOES

BEFORE ANYBODY

Lake Success, Oct. 13. The Soviet Foreign Minister, Mr Andrei Vyshinsky, today appealed to the United States to return to its wartime policy of co-operation.

Then, he promised, “things will change".

Mr Vyshinsky was speaking in the United Nations' Political Committee during the debate on the seven-Power plan to give greater powers to the General Assembly.

Mr Vyshinsky asked, "Is not the root of the evil the political approach to questions?

"Policies have been changed from the wartime policy of collabora- tion to the postwar policy of toughness - an 'about face' in United States policy," he declared.

Earlier, the American delegate, Mr John Foster Dulles, had declared that if the United Nations did not institute an effective collective security sys- tem, nations would inevitably depend more on military alliances.

They named the man as Douglas Monro, 26, a Scottish seaman.

Yet, despite its ap- parent insignificance, the Public Relations Office and its successful and effective operation is of moment to the public. Vague though the functions of an official PRO may be to the average person in Hongkong, his duties are, in fact, needful and valuable. But their effectiveness must depend very considerably on the attitude of official colleagues and the de- partments they lead. The point is well made in the annual PRO report Just issued. Well made because the writer of this report has found it necessary to emphasise the fact that Government de partments are beginning to appreciate information to the Press through the Public Relations Office.

Is

an encouraging sign. inasmuch that memory serves to remind that Home Government departments have long been loth to channel any Information about their activities either directly through newspaper reporters or the oficial Public Relations

Office. "The Public Relations Officer has some- times experienced difficulty in securing answers to press. questions," complains the PRO report. How very true! And how bitter the same experience of local news- paper reporters who, for the past twenty, fifty, one hundred years, have tried to accomplish the same mission

about a better understanding between the Press and Government. But rearing its ugly hend still is official obstructionism, usually reflected by, what to the news- paperman appears to be, a wilful confusion on the part of departmental spokesman between factual information and high policy. "Policy", in fact, has long been the safe ground to which a departmental chief retires when confronted with a Press Inquiry about some new project-be It either constructional or social. Policy, which in government always seems to imply if not involve top-level secrecy, is the constani bugbear of newsmen in dealing with officials, and, if the report is not misread, has given the government PRO a similar headache. In the interests of the public who look to the newspapers for news and Information on Government and its projects, things would be much improved if official departmental heads || could be given a clear directive as to what constitutes Polley (and therefore usually directly quotable in the Press) and what represents Information, which can be quoted to whatever extent a new- paper feels it is worth. Possibly because this has not been clearly defined to de- partimental chlefs the PRO finds it necessary to protest that "too often the representatives of the Press regard the Public Relations Offley as a source of in- formation which properly should be secured by reportatu.“ But then, to the head of a department the item of interest might appear to be high secret policy if disclosed to a reporter.

but to the PRO (who is in the secret) it is news to be used at his discretian. The newspapers loth to ask a PRO to do a job which they would prefer to do themselves, but if the reporter is dented information on some- thing which he knews could and should be made available, his only resort is the PRO-and then, very often, It is made mere in faith than expectation. The FRO would be doing a valuable job of work on behalf of the general public, and their agents the newspapers, if he could get the existing confusion straightened out.
