Soviet Union where newspapers

Party; the Soviet Government,
trade unions or cooperative socie-
tiles. - $t
! The U,S.S.R. sought to incor-
porate in conference proceedings
a different agenda which included
these two points among duties Of
the press:
1. Organization of a struggle
for democratic principles, for
unmasking the vestiges of fascism
and for eradicating all forms of
Fascist theology.
2. The unmasking of war mon
gers and the organization of an
effective campaign against or
!gans of the press and information
which incite to war and aggres-
sion.
In introducing its proposed
Iagenda the Soviet delegation lew
elled the following broadside at
the press of the United States
land Great Britain:
Merely to proclaim the prin-
ciple Of freedom of the press
does not in itself give this free
dom to the people. unless large
sections of the population and
their organizations have at
their disposal the material re-
sources without which freedom
of the press cannot be made q
practical reality.
II Everybody knows that. since

funds which are not possessed
by the bulk Of the population.
the freedom of the press pro-
claimed in constitutions be-
comes in actual fact the priv.
lege Of a few newspaper own
ers. publishing houses and tele-
graph agencies"
II In opposing the terms of the
Soviet-proposed agenda, Leroy D
Stinebower, us. delegate to the
Economic and Social Council, de-
clared:
THE Soviet proposal. ap-
proaches the problem in reverse
I order. 1t is against something
and not for something. Calling

dom of the press is for some
thing-for freedom"
| The opposition Of the Canadian
delegation was summed up in
these words:
| The basic function of the

the truth We believe
that to say that the object Of
the press Is not to tell the truth.

40{AlAC AcCQCiIl u lIllCILlQtlOIl :
on which there is q wide diverq-
eHee OF opinion among U.N.
members.
The ls48 conference is re-
aaxded as one Of the most i'm
portant the U.N. has scheduled.
since il deals with fundamen-
tel human right. whose viola
tion was among the means Hit
Leu used to rise to dictatorship.
in addition to U.N. members,
the following states will be in
yited Albania. Austria. Bull
aariAs Fire. Finland. Hungary.
Italy. Pakistan. Portugal. Ru-
mania. Switzerland, Transfer
dan. Yemen.
The conference will be charged
with three tasks among others:
1,sIt will consider drafting
charter covering the rights of the
press, eradio and newsreels, their
obligations and the measures nec-
essary to ensure the fulfillment
Of both.
2. twill consider possible ma
chimney to promote the free flow
of Information. Such machinery
might perform such functions as
receiving, and reporting on COM
plants :. regarding false news,
ohstructions to the flow of infor-
ma&isa~and violations of any in
teFnational conventions arising
out of the recommendation of
the World Conference and other
international agreements in this
field.
s. 1T will study whether its
recommendations could best be
put into effect by General Assem-
bly, resolutions, international
conventions or national laws.
A further main purpose of the
conference will be to decide what
basic principles press, radio and
newsreels should follow in gath
ering and transmitting news with
out letters. In so doing it will
consider these four principles:
Ito. tell the truth without
prejudice and to spread knowl-
edge without malicious intent.
2~To facilitate the solution of
the economic, social and humani-
tartan problems of the world as
a whole through the free inter-
change Of Information.
8. To heip promote respect for
human rights and fundamental
freedoms for all, without distinc-
ton. as to race, sex, language or
religion; to combat any ideologies
whose nature could endanger
these rights and freedoms.
4.To help maintain interna-
tianal peace and security through
understanding and cooperation
between peoples; to combat forces
which invite war by removing
hellicose influences from media
or Information.
Finally the conference will con-
slider measures to aid accredited
news personnel in gathering in
formation such as facilitating
their entry and movement in for
eign countries and their protec-
ton against arbitrary expulsion,
as well as measures to facilitate
the progressive elimination of
peace-time censorship.
Before U.N.'s Economic and
Social Council adopted the four
basic principles of freedom of in
formation as working basis for
the conference, months of hard
work and days of hot discussion
revealed sharp cleavage between
the points of view ID of the

Kingdom, where newspapers are
