The article presents information on the book "Some Newspapers and Newspapermen," by Oswald Garrison Villard. Villard's book has a more limited objective than author Upton Sinclair's attempt to psychoanalyze the press in "The Brass Check." "Some Newspapers and Newspapermen," as its title announces, is a study of the great dailies of the country in the light of their origin, history, environment, political and financial affiliations and of the men who made and control them. It is a series of character sketches, in which each newspaper is a personality, expressed in the lineaments of its headlines and make-up and also in its behavior.
