IT of 0 Library 97403 The Mill City ON THE SCENIC NORTH SANTIAM HIGHWAY — OREGON’S FAST GROWING VACATION WONDERLAND VOLUME XXII NUMBER 21 THE MILL CITlF ENTERPRISE—MILL CITY, OREGON River Guides Signing North Santiam Up and Down Lyons Ph0(16 Safeco Insurance I It has been said and proven too that no country has a press equal to that of the United States. There are some 10,000 small newspapers like The Mill City Enterprise scattered over the length and breadth of this land of ours which represents a body of independent thought that is indispensable to the preser vation of our economic and political liberty. There has been a lot of talk about reg ulation and restriction of ad vertising. It takes no great imagination to see the con nection between advertising regulation and press censor ship. It takes a lot of money to keep a newspaper going these days, and everyone knows that the main source of revenue comes from ad vertising—so if the govern ment can take this right of a merchant away, and this portion of revenue away from the newspapers, they can con trol the press. This would be the main step in the downfall of our country. People in Mill City and other small cities in our coun try are interested in knowing about their friends’ going and comings, births, wed- dings, and all sorts local happenings. They know that we have stores in our town, but they also like to see what they have to offer in their advertisements. The day of the merchant who said: “they know where I am” is long gone. The progressive mer chant advertises to invite the public to his store. We need less regulation from the gov ernment, not more, if we are to continue to be a strong nation. Servirais Upgraded Co.
