RELEASE THE PRESS.

HE great public awakening which must come
j to the American people can be largely ac-
Scomplshed by the use of the daily press in the
educational training of the students In the schools
according to John U. Tigert commissioners of the
United States Bureau of Education
If there is any one thing upon which the daily
press unanimous it is the up holding OF the laws
OF the coun try and continual assault upon the in
fuences that would disrupt the government. Dr..
Tigert states that recent trip throughout the
country shows the need for a public awakening
along these lines and in his opinion the daily
papers and magazine offer the best and m ost use
full means Of disseminating knowledge concerning
the things vital for the public to know.
The press is hampered in its efforts to reach, not
i only the student public, but the general public by
he heavy war revenue that was imposed upon
second class matter and which still continues in its
original imposition. 1t is time that this
postal charge should be at least reduced If not
lifted altogether Reading matter is vital factor
in forming the beliefs the habits, the ideas OF the
people The press Of the nation carries the peo-
pie all their knowledge of the things that concern
the administration, It gives its whole influence to-
ward holding ublic opinion fast to the necessary
observance of the law, and it carries uncomplain-
in gly and continuously columes of news concerning
activities Of the various administrative bureaus
and heads of committees that literally must reach
tn people if they support the individuals in
charge of such public affairs. The press performs
for the government free service that money could
buy, and yet it is taxed beyond reason for get
ting this urgent information in the hands of the
public where it positively must arrive, if any ad-
mfnistration is to remain mistaken.
Practically all taxation has been reduced,
and in numerous instances removed. The press
has endured long, and without much protest a bur
den that it feels should at least be lghtened
if not removed Considering the service, and the
free space given the government, which saves to
the government enormous sum if it were to be
upon advertising rates, the claims the
reasonab1ess of asking hearing for its suppllca-
ton and hopes for relief from the present unjust
taxation.
