NATIONAL NEWSPAPER WEEK
' This country has something of a mania for “weeks” and “days” celebrating all manner of things and occasions from the sublime to the ridiculous. But some of the observances are far above the common ruck,/and deserve the public’s interest and attention.
This is certainly the case with National Newspaper Week, October 1-8. Its theme is “i Your Newspaper Guards Your Freedoms.” And that’s more than just a felicitous little slogan. It’s a fact. A free press is the most potent weapon against tyranny and persecution that any nation can possess. ' '
Dictators always take over the press as soon as they gain i power and pervert it to their own ehds. That’s only logical. For dictatorship can’t stand the freedom of expression and debate a free press stands solidly for.
