What they ant published are their own opinions and not contrary ones. hey Would like to be the "special interests" represented ex- mswely in the newspapers. * * * If such people had their way, there would not be the newspaper as you know it today. , They would eliminate the" great variety of facts and opinions that appear and without which democracy would not work. To exercise your rights as a free citizen, you must have free access to information. You must know about laws and prices .and theo- ries and movements so that you can approve or protest. Ignorant of events and trends, you would not be able to keep your representa-. lives in government representing you. :Now you get the facts of what takes place and you get the'opinions of why they take Place and what should bedone.You get all sides of questions :atements by bankers and borrowers, businessmen and labor hffle, rs, gvernment officials and private citizens.
