LONDON (CP)—Roy Thom- son says it’s sometimes pretty lencly at the top.
“J admit it, I’m frequently 'onely,” he says in an_ inter- view published Monday by a “Maybe other people get more out of life than I do. *
“A successful person is not always to be\envied. He's to be pitied, too. Pitied!”’
Thomson, who recently added Lord Kemsley’s newspaper and publishing empire to his inter- ests in Canada, the United States and Scotland, is the first man to be interviewed for a Daily Mail series on million- aires and men of power.
The Canadian-born magnate gives reporter Robert Muller these other sidelights:
On money — “Some people talk as if there was something wrong with making money, but is there? Isn’t money the meas- ure of your success. . . You gotta go on, Where do you stop? I don’t know. I never stop.”
On ulcers—‘‘You may not be- Heve this, but I don’t have worries. If-a dozen of my pa- pers failed tomorrow, Td still be all right. Nothing can hap- pen to put me back on the breadline. I've got an equable temperament.” .
On balance sheets — “I just love reading balance sheets. I'd sooner take a halance sheet home to read than a book.”
