Whatever the New Year holds . . . tie to these ihiiifzs:

We enioy . . . and we are defending to the death, u precious thing: DEMOCRACY!

Don’t forget how few people still enjoy it! Because "democracy” is not just a phrase in a text book, not just a slogan in a speech. No. Out of cicmocracy comes almost everything you personally value in life: equality of opportunity . . . the right to move about as you like . . . the right to think as you like . . . the right to say how and by Whillll you shall be governed . . .

The one most important right democracy gives you is freedom of choice . . . If you lose that right to live your own life, to think your own thoughts, to choose your (iwn job . . . then no “democratic” form of government can mean much. And you, meaning all our citizens, CAN lose that freedom of choice! Without ever quite knowing when or how you lost it! Because our kind of democracy must be rule by informed people! It must be rule by people who can read the facts 0f what goes on around them . . . and who no road them! Otherwisepopuiar rule soon becomes Mon rule. And some dictator inevitably steps in to bring the mob to order! Yes, your reel freedom depends upon the freedom of the pressl Unless newspapers give you the FACTS, all kinds of

and appearing in newspapers from coosl viduolt who would like reprints may have

facts about people and events . . . you cannot choose f n1‘ yourself what is right to do, what is wrong t0 do, what is dangerous to let others do! Unless you have the facts about investments and sales, news about everything from War Savings to groceries . . . you cannot exercise your right t0 choose for murszrlf how you want t0 spend your earnings or save them!

And is there a danger to the freedom of the press?

Yrs! We OURSELVES are the danger . . . because we lake it too much for granted! T00 many 0f us are still coMPLAcENT. Too many still shrug their shoulders . . . forgetting that shrugged shoulders soon bowl

Because the freedom of the press is not u selfish privilege the newspapers have . . .

it. is a basic democratic RIGHT you have! History proves (for any man to read) that people haven’t. a liopc of KEEPING that right unless they show they wam" it, and no something to GUARD it!

The most important thing to do . . -

is to remember that the price of freedom is eternal VIGILANCE! That means you must be alert . . . you must. read your newspaper more carefully, THINK what the facts mean! When you know of a story that even begins to be doctored or suppressed, DO something. Be vocal! Write the editor. Tell your neighbours to write! The Publisher is doing his share. But il’s YOUR freedom. thafs at stake!
