Pegler didn't say it, was a
character witness for Alger
Hiss and the Washington Post
found excuses for him (Hiss).
Pegler said, land the New York
Times and New York Herald
Tribune were not far behind"
Today the libel suit has be-
come a gag and a racket in
American journalism, Pegler
said.
We all know this to be true
and the net result is to muzzle
to a degree the press of the
nation. Few editors are SO
financially independent they
can afford libel Suits-and
although they may be per-
fectly innocent of any libel
and go free in court the nui-
sance, worry and expense of
any court fight is still to be
borne.
Mr.. Pegler's parting advice to
the editors (and he was refer

is getting such a play was:
at is wise to keep an open
mind-but not so open that
