'I'wo-thirds of the papers use this method, the others setting copy manually As a special service CP trans- mits to a number of papers a service of stock market tabula- tions by teletypesetter. The Canadian Press does a business involving expenditure of $2,500,000 a year but it isn't in any list of commercial firms. Until it built its compact two- storey head office on Toronto's University Avenue in 1948, * it owned no buildings or property except the furniture and fixtures \n its bureaus. The annual bud- get is fighred out and met by Jumping the general charges-- such as wire rentals, salaries, etc.--and dividing them, city by city, where there is a member lA newspaper, on the basis of pop- ulation. Where there are twe or more papers in a city, the charge is divided equally between the members except for a minor variation reflecting circulation. The assessments may shift each + h e year if the budget varies and they do change every five years when census figures are issued. | Acoustic Tile Ceilings 200,000 WORDS A DAY | Core of The CP's wire system | . is the head office at Toronto, : mn the new where 40 editors and 30 traffic men handle eastern news for the West and western news for the TIMES (Continued on Page 34) GREAT SLAVE LAKE Ven Sg Tn DOMINION SOUND EQUIPMENT'S LTD. 45 WINGOLD AVE., TORONTO - RUssell 1.6161 We're pleased to be chosen to install -- 8), Y !

This enterprise--which sells nothing, makes no profits, de- clares no dividends--is The Ca- nadian Press. Forty years ago the original idea reached fruition in a Canada-wide association of daily newspapers. Since then The CP has grown until Cana- dian papers are receiving what can fairly be termed the finest news service in the world. Newspapers of no other country carry an international news re- port so broad, so complete, so closely tuned to their needs. | The Canadian Press is the co- operative news-gathering and dis- tributing association of Canadian Of the very essence of The CP is its 30,000-mile system of| leased wires.
