How can I make the CUPS logfiles readable by others than root

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

Non-root system administrators are responsible for viewing logfiles for CUPS.
As old logfiles are rotated and new ones are created, how can we ensure that the non-root users can read.
Using chmod to make them world-readable only works for the current existing files.
