British statesman who has variously
been styled "the White knight Of

diplomat in Europe" took 1t all with

Great Britain's foreign affairs until
he resigned rather than yield to 4

said he "loved it-every BIT"
With q police escort, Eden
paid his respects at City Hall to
Mayor Ftorello H. La Guardia, a
kindred anti-dictator spirit, and
chatted volubly for 20 minutes. He
inspected the new West Side ex-

together.

ST. LOUIS, Dec. 10.-President
Roosevelt asserts in letter to the
st. Louis Post-Dispatch that free
press is primarily a responsibility
OF the newspapers.
The President, writing for the 18th
anniversary section of the paper to-
morrow, also expressed the hope
that freedom Of the press to criticize
the administration would lever pre-
vail-throughout this administration
and throughout every administration
In all the years to come"
1T is not my purpose primarily
to deliver lecture on the. ethics of
Journalism" wrote President Roose-
welt. But our newspapers are so
essentially public institutions that
they are subject to the closest scru-
tiny of their readers. Since it is the
readers who make possible by their
patronage the publication of all Of
our papers, perhaps the readers are
entitled to be heard on the age-old
question Of free press.
But more forcible than any criti-
cism from without is the self-search-
ing inquiry of those within editorial
sanctums and the newspaper count
ing rooms as to what constitutes
their obligation to the readers of
American newspapers"
Expressing doubt that freedom of
the press was endangered from
without" the President went on:
Il have always been firmly per-
suaded that our newspapers cannot
be edited in the interest of the gen.
eral public from the counting room.
And I wish we could have q ma
tional symposium on that question.
particularly in its relation to the
freedom Of the press. How MANY
bogles are conjured up by invoking
that greatly overworked phrase!
Il do not thiak that any one
would seriously argue that the free
dom OF the press to criticize the
administration in office has, IN any
manner, been cllrtailed since the
spring of 1888. A casual reading of
representative digest would re-
veal the fallacy of allegations to
the contrary. Praise be! And may
that freedom ever prevail-through-
out this administration and through
out every administration in all the
years to come. 80"
