FREE PRESS?
In those nations ’.«.here free enterprise has been either des
troyed. crippled, or subjected to iron-handed political control,
a free press has become a thing of the past. The press in such
nations is simply a sounding board for dictatorship—the ruthless

of opinion and information. There can he no opposition. There
can be no dissent. The death of free enterprise is inevitably
accompanied by the death of a free press.
