Newspaper Week

OF all special weeks celebrated annually in
the United States, none is more significant
than Newspaper Week, which starts today and
ontinues through next Tuesday. It is the aim
and the hope of the country's publishers to
draw the reading public and the newspaper in
to closer relationship this year than ever be-
fore because of the perilous situation in world
affairs and the dangers confronting this land
It is not only that the European war is
drawing closer. That is bad enough, heaven
knows. 1t is that the institution of a free press,
no less than of free speech, will disappear in
America, as it has in so many countries, if
the barbarians Of Europe enforce their will
upon Britain and the United States In these
two nations only, among the leading countries
of the world, is it still possible for newspapers
to have opinions of their own, to publish the
true facts of every days happenings-to tell
