POPULAR REACTION
NAMED PRESIDENT

These and many similar perform
ances shocked and enlightened the
people. Here was the sedition law
before their eyes. Here, in these ar
rests and trials, was brutally frank
attempt to wipe out all the funda-
mental freedoms guaranteed by a
Constitution that had become a door
mat"
Obviously, the attacks on liberty
and democracy were even worse then
than now, but Jefferson kept his con-
fidence in the people, and they did
not fail him in the long run. Jeffer-
son was elected President, the alien
and sedition laws went out the win
dow, and Americans again breathed
the fresh air of freedom.
THE PRESENT SITUATION
The evil winds of reaction, intol-
erance. and hysteria are blowing
again now, but we have made gains
since Jefferson's time. For example,
compare the judges described by
Bowers with some great judges of to-
day.

NATIONAL T.B. GROUP
OPPOSES ENDING OF
CHEST x-RAY TESTS

NEW YORK-The National Tu-
berculosis Association, opposing the
proposed abolition of the mass x-ray
program of the us. Public Health
Service, said that the service is one
that "only the Federal government
can do effectively since no state or
local (body) can economically amass
the equipment and personnel to take
as many X-rays in the short time
necessary"
The House followed recommends
tions of the Eisenhower Administra-
ton to cut funds for the control of
tuberculosis by $1.9 million below
the amount requested by the Truman
Administration. This would elimin-
ate mass X-ray tests. The Senate
is expected to consider money for
the program very soon.
Said the National TB group:
eve believe that the mass X-ray
program has been invaluable be-
cause it has been a means by which
communities have become more
aware of the tuberculosis problem"

been rising during the same period
that the farmers share of the con-
sumer's dollar has been shrinking.
Net earnings of food professors were
up IL per cent, and of tobacco manu-

Whether the professors or the
wholesalers or the retailers are get
ting the major share of this increase
is not known. That was what the ETC
study was to find out. The study
was to cover bread, flour, milk, but

ZENGER, THE PRINTER, DEFIEs
COLONIAL TYRANT


As publisher of their little WEEK
LY JOURNAL, the three lawyers
picked John Peter Zenger, who had
come to this country from Germany,
served as an apprentice to the only
printer in the colony, and set up a
small print shop himself.
The three lawyers wrote, and Zen
ger published, articles exposing
Crosby's misdeeds to the public. All
four of these early American heroes
knew they were risking Jail, but they
were determined to go through with
their bold challenge to the "seditious
libel" law.
"The loss of liberty in general"
the JOURNAL declared, would soon
follow the suppression of the liberty
of the press. No nation, ancient or
modern, ever lost the liberty of free
ly speaking, writing, or publishing
their sentiments, but forthwith lost
their liberty in general and became
slaves"
Also, that old paper denounced the
idea that anyone-no matter how
high he may be-has a right to tell
other people what they must think,
speak, write or read.
"The whole people, who are the
publick," the JOURNAL said, "are
the best judges whether things go i'll
or we'll with the publick".

FIRST FIGHT FOR FREEDOM
OF EXPRESSION
By ALBERT H. JENKINS, In
American Train Dispatcher

Now again, as often before in his
tory, the American peoples liberties
are threatened by wave of intoler-
ance and hysteria, stirred up by men
who try to hide their evil purposes
behind the mask of patriotism.
1t is comforting to recall that this
country has lived through such dark
periods in the past, and come out
again onto the bright highway of
freedom. Each generation must face
and win this battle. 1t will never
end. 1t began even before the fore
fathers won their war for independ-
nee, and wrote into the Constitution
Bill of Rights to protect the people
against tyranny.
The forefathers were wise and ex-
perienced men. They knew the
hard-learned lessons of history.
That's why, for example, the very
first paragraph of the Bill of Rights
says Congress shall make no law >. :.
abridging freedom of speech, or of
the press"

the marketing charges" or middle
mems fees" went up $24.48.
For every 81 the consumer paid
for his "family market basket" of
farm products in 1852, the farmer
got 48 cents, or 2 cents less than
in 1851.
Between 1851 and 1852 the retail
cost of AZ cotton articles dropped
only per cent, but the farm value
of the cotton from which these ar
ticles were made dropped Fl per cent.
So, the farmers share went down 16
per cent.
In the same period the cigarette
makers and distributors did better
by about IL cents per pack, but the
tobacco farmer got less for his prod
uct.

but the farmer got $7.63 less for
the farm products that went into the

By BRADFORD V. CARTER
In The Typographical Journal

The House doesn't want you to
know just who is taking how much
of a cut out of the money you spend
for necessities. That's just another
reflection of the Eisenhower adj
ministration's "better climate for
business"
To make sure you won't find out
who is getting the gravy, the House,
in passing on appropriations for fed
eral agencies, tackled on a rider speci-
fically forbidding such study.
President Truman, on September
25, 1862, directed the Federal Trade
Commission to find out why, although
the consumers food bill went up, the
farmers income went down. In his
final budget he asked for $4,000
for a study by the ETC of "the make
up of the consumer dollar"
The Republican-controlled House
cut the ETC budget Truman pro-
posed by "a per cent; the sum Eli
senhower proposed by 7 per cent, and
not only eliminated the $4,000 Tru-
man had proposed for the study but
also added a rider forbidding the
ETC to make any such study.
SPECIAL INTERESTS BEHIND
RIDER
Sen. Harley Kilgore DIV. Va.)
called the move "The Food Profit
GERS Rider" and said that certain
powerful interests, food professors
and middlemen, have been getting
more and more of the consumers dol
lar, while the farmer has been getting
less and less. Obviously none of these
special interests wants the public to
know precisely how much of the con-
sumer's dollar it is getting"
Sen. Guy Gillette (D-Iowa), point
ing to the failure of Congress to
adopt his proposal for a Congress
sional Committee on Consumer Inter
est, said "no committee in Congress
has undertaken or is prepared to I'M
dertake this type of study on the
comprehensive basis necessary to pro-
vide members of Congress with the
facts"
