Under new slogans individuals are forming
committees and working to limit—and destroy
—your freedom. Hiding behind appealing catch
phrases, they wait the day when they can come
out in the open and take over.
t
| In the meantime they strive to win your sup-
’ port. They are asking you to put on your own
chains. They.dare not let you know their aims.
They want you to believe and follow them ,
blindly.

Newspapers are their first target. If they can \
destroy newspapers, they can ensl/ve you.
The fight is not so much against '

They are agitating for
limiting the freedom of the press.
They know that as long as thia <
. and other newspapers print facts
and opinions freely you are informed. With in
formation you can sit in judgment and decide
what you want to believe.
'
Now you can read both sides of controversies.
You can study contradictory statements. Those 4
who would rob you of your liberties do not want
you to do that. In their hands this newspaper
would print only what they want printed. Their
laws, their mistakes, their venality—none would
be criticized. You would read what they told
you and in time, without access to other infor-
marion, you would accept your lot as those
under Hitler did—and now do under Stalin.

A dictatorship can’t live with a free press.
And a free people can’t live without one.
A free press is the bedrock under democracy.
It doesn’t belong exclusively to newspapers or
to the government. You are an owner. It in
cludes your right to write letters and circularize
them. And your right to read what you want to.
To forget that is to invite trouble. You won’t
always be able to spot your enemfcs. They are
too clever for that. But you caii be alert. You
can defeat their drive to take away your free
dom by denying you knowledge of what is
going on. By keeping informed, by voicing
yodr ow n opinions and defending the other
fellow 's right to have his say, you can b e
free and assure the freedom of your family
and children.
