WHAT are the American people to think now
W of the Wanted "free press" with this demon
straton of its servility to form of censorship
that was futile and therefore frivolous?
What confidence can the people now have in
their newspapers to report events they SHOULD
know about, when they have this proof of the in
ability of the newspapers to report and discuss an
event which was matter of common knowledge?
National newspaper week is not much more
than sham in these circumstances.
How can the press pretend to freedom which
it cannot PRACTICE?
How can the Importance and value of free

Roosevelt S Tour
Blow to, Free Press

president ROOSEVELT has completed
transcontinental tour, regarding which no
word was printed in any newspaper and no word
was spoken over the radio.
In the course Of his tour, the President
Travelled nearly 5000 miles, and was seen and
recognized by many people.
And everywhere he appeared the news of his
presence was instantly and widely known to many
more peopie-with the real result that his tour
was no secret to anybody with access to the con-
versation prevalent IN the community.
In the suppression of PUBLICATION, there
fore, the censorship was great success.
DUT in the suppression of NEWS obviously, it
- was complete failure.
Hence, if the purpose of the tour was to DEM
onstrate that the press, the radio and all other
mediums of public information could be absolutely
BLACKED OUT for whatever period the Presi-
dent desired, it was fully achieved
But if the purpose was to prove that the
President could travel the length Of the land and
back in any real SECRECY, and thus presumably
in safety, it of Course proved the exact opposite.
What, then, was gained by the admittedly
complete barr on publication?
Not personal security for the President,
certainly.
TT THOUSANDS, and perhaps even, millions, OF
people knew about the tour, it would be utterly
naive to suppose only his enemies were unaware
of it.
If it is dangerous for the President to travel
about the country with public knowledge OF the
fact, obviously he made his tour in constant and
utmost personal danger.
His travels were discussed on street corners
and in bars, in homes and public assemblies.
Only the press was inarticuate.
In this connection, it cannot be regarded as
being without significance that on the very day
official announcement of the President completed
tour was made the newspapers of the United States
began their annual observance of national news
paper week-which emphasizes the Importance
and value of FREE press.
