Freedom of Press Is Topic
for Voters7 League Speaker .
"Freedom of the press is for the benefit of the people, not of
tht press," Eric Allen Jr., city editor of the Medford Mail Tribune,
said Saturday in a talk at the general meeting of the Medford
League of Women Voters.
The public must have access
to information in order to gov
ern themselves, he said, and the
press is part of a "marketplace
of ideas" where people may find
the truth.
Me. Allen traced the develop
ment of freedom of press in the
United States, citing the growth
frcSh early British censorship to
the present - day uncensored
press.
He declared that "the radical
and dangerous idea of yesterday
is the orthodox of today," and
the people lose their freedom to
the extent that the press is un-
free.
Responsibility under law, he
said, keeps the press under nec
essary controls, but that prior
censorship fs not desirable.
High and rising costs of oper
ating newspapers and the cen-
tralized (chain) ownership are
the most ob&'ious economic dan
gers to free and unbiased news,
according to the editor, but he
said electronic aids in the future
will once again allow greater
numbers of individual publish
ers. He also cited recent allega
tions that the national govern
ment is again resorting to un
necessary restraints against free
press and declared that he had
enough faith in the 'intelligence
of the American people, that
hey are able to determine and
accept the truth when given it
by free and unfettered report
ing system. .
Mrs. Robert Hiatt, president,
presided at the meeting, and in
troduced Congressman Harris
Elfcworth, a special guest, who
spoke briefly to the group.
