It is not the behavior of the

FREEDOM OF PRESS WITH
PUBLISHERS

Erwin Funk, newspaper man OF Rogers,
Ark. is a past president of the National
Editorial Association, largest organization
of newspapers in the United States. His
should be authoritative and his views Of
press freedom are sane and impressive. Mr..
opinions on matters of newspaper policy
FunkS article in The National Publisher on
the subject of press freedom is addressed
to newspaper men, but we think it will aid
all other classes of citizens among the read
ers of The Times-News to better under
standing of the free press issue and some
of the problems of the newspapers. There
fore, we are giving space to it with the
hope that all readers of this newspaper
will carefully consider it. You read it and
make the application of local or general
conditions of the principles and policies
enumerated by Mr. Funk.
Freedom of action in any business must begin At
home to constitute real independence. Are You
free TO say what you chose in your home town
How close watch do you keep on your news items
and editorials to see that offense is given your
advertisers, social and religious leaders, credit
managers, relatives, friends and neighbors, your
employees and their relatives and friends, the
Chamber of Commerce and other civic organiza
hoRs, and perhaps of greater Importance to many
publishers, the vast army of local, county, state
and federal political officers and appointees?
To many publishers and editors Freedom of
tho Press" means only freedom from criminal and
civil censorship through operation of statute laws.
AHer 40 years of experience and observation /
find our publishers have had their real freedom
cJIktailed by direct laws less than by any other
medium.
Loss of freedom comes more commonly
Though the operation of laws allowing politicians
toSmake appointments and give legal publications
and commercial printing to friends or to the high
est bidder for official favors. -'
Ne must expect to fight in the future for every
thing we get. l am not asking or advocating spe-
cid privileges for the newspaper industry. But
do-demand a square deal. That we shall not be
PLACED in position where we have to either or
brfbe or bully some federal or state politician to
geS that same square, deal. That the radio shall
eripy no freedom of expression denied the news-
pahers. That the government shall not enter into
Unfair competition with our newspapers our
Commercial plants. a.
zFOr many publishers, newspaper activities
lave been only stepping stone to political pre-
faFment Editorial freedom has meant only a
freedom to express such thoughts as met the ap-

bissed expositionS of local national issues.
