Loy Maloney, who has recently completed 10 years as Chicago Tribune managing editor, says, according to an article in Editorand Publisher, all editors have learned some lessons from the photo-engraving process that will be carried over if and when the printers return.

The Tribune has put out more special sections than before the strike. "We have told the background of the news better under strike conditions than we did heretofore," said Pat. An interesting interview with George A. Brandenberg is written up.
