The Newspaper Publishers Committee now. w. A. uucnnwl. cmmm

of Liberiywv

A message from

HUNDRED thousand years ago a man built a bright ﬁre in front of his cave — to keep out other men and animals who

would disturb his security.

You, today, are still tending that ﬂame. You do not live in a cave, perhaps, and you feed no actual logs into a literal bonﬁre. But the dangers to your security, the risks of your freedom are just as real even though

their forms may have changed. If you quit reading your newspaper, you’d soon lose

touch with what is happening outside your home. You'd

lose your perspective on world events, or local problems. Without it you would sense no dangers from any corrupt practice in business or government or schools or on social fronts. You'd miss the good things, the advances of civili-

zation, too.

Furthermore, if you quit reading newspaper advertise- ments——which are, of course, only news about the goods

and services and values that make your home secure and comfortable —you’d soon lose your sense of value. You’d not know how many dollars and pennies you needed to keep you warm and safe until more dollars came in.

GUARDIAN

PAGE FIVE

In short, without news—both kinds of news, that oi what is happening and that of what good things are in the market place —you’d be unable to exercise thejudgment a self-governing citizen must: have today.

But suppose your newspapers quit serving you! Suppose they refused to open their pages to storekceper Smith when he had a bargain for you or refused to let in store- keeper Brown when he met Smith’s competition with

l something newer and better? ,

Suppose your newspapers gave you no news, only lies and manufactured propaganda, always favourable to the man or the clique in power.

This happened in Italy. And all the Italians became the dupes of Mussolini, who joined Hitler while Hitler privately scoﬁed at: the Italians but publicly praised Mussolini in his controlled German newspapers. They’ve starved, stood in line, marched to disaster in futile pur- suit of conquests, those Italians. They’ve lost their liberty. Arid lost what little chance they had to gain the wor1d’s respect-all because they didn't know.

It's easy to tell you why your newspapers won't quit serving you, why they will go on keeping you the best informed men and women in the whole world.

You won’t Jet them quit. You are the dictator in this democracy—-— you, the “ordinary” citizen. When any paper

displéases you, fails to live up to what you demand of it, you simply quit reading that: paper. Others follow you; soon both Smith and Brown realize they must try another way of telling you about their goods. They quit advertis- ing in that newspaper and it dies; another and better one

rises to take its place.

* * ll!

Newspaper men have ajob. They are working for you. You are the boss and they know it. To keep their jobs they must please you. And the vast increase in Canadian news- paper circulation in recent years is evidence enough of how well satisﬁed you are.

The next time you hand a newsboy a few pennies for your paper, say to him, “Sonny, herc’s another 10g for the ﬁre that keeps out: the thieves of liberty.” ‘

He probably won’t understand what you mean but you’II know and he’1l have his chance to Ieam, because you're guarding his freedom also!
