Show Tfasniay. Oct. IS, MM KoOTpapai's Role Ts It national Newspaper Week. During the week. wmnum mn arglnf their readers to consider the many ttiad nit a newspaper plays In each citizen's life. A newspaper even in this day of television and rais the only medium devoted exclusively to the dispensing of information. Day In and day out, its interests are as broad as the universe and as intimate as the neighbor next door. The newspaper brings historic news from Saigon. London, Paris,- Washington; it also records the birth In a happy household In the next block; it brings word of the latest bargains at a district shopping area and also from the corner; store. Not always so well understood is the role a news-papplays in preserving our freedoms. A good newspaper must be the conscience of a community and of the nation. This is the role of the free press. For whom is the press free? Not for the benefit of newspaper owners, but for the cause of individual freedom for the citizen. The constitutional provision for freedom of the press Is part of the broader guarantee of the individual's right to speak and discuss freely without fear of governmental reprisals. The constitution says: "Congress shall make no law of speech or of the press." abridging be right of free speech would mean little without fret press. This was true in Washington's time; it is even more true today in our complex society of hundreds of millions. The right to speak frankly would have little practical affect today without the right to print, too. Even though the speaker had access to television or radio, he could speak only if what he said was generally approved by government, since radio and television licenses are granted and renewed only with the approval of politi- tio - er ... m cians. The press, on the other hand, is unfettered. It is neither supported by government nor regulated by it. It "may not be shut up by anyone except by economic force exerted by Its readers. It is tempered only by the need of public acceptance. Newspapers are subject, however, to laws protecting ; the innocent against libel and slander, just as an individual is subject to them. Thus, when the press exposes, it must be able to prove truth and that it is acting in the public interest. Newspapers, large and small, are key e factors in the system of a free society. Thomas Jefferson said it well in a letter to LaFay-ett- e check-balanc- in 1833. He wrote: "The only security for all is a free press. The force of public opinion cannot be resisted when permitted freely to be expressed." And he added: "The agitation it produces must be submitted to. It Is necessary to keep the water pure."
