Do you have a right to know? Do you want to have the right to know? Do you feel reporters and editors should be gagged? Do you think the news media has prejudiced individuals suspected and being tried for a crime? These are questions all of you must answer in the days ahead. You must decide if freedom is exploited, or if you are being cheated. You were all interested in the Sheppard case. Not long ago it was depicted on TV in a dramatic presentation. This is the story, as you know, of the celebrated Cleveland, Ohio doctor who was accused of killing his wife and newspaper reports were said to have convicted him. It should be noted on the other hand that a newspaper woman was responsible for his eventual retrial and acquittal! Newspaper reporters have been tossed in jail on contempt charges in the last several years; have served jail sentences because they refused to reveal sources. You read of the case in Boston, Massachusetts where a Superior Court judge told the reporters he did not want the case of a woman who allegedly killed a police officer five years ago reviewed in the newspaper again only the actual facts of the trial would be allowed. He said this was not a gag rule but newspapermen everywhere called it that because it told them what to write and DEADLINES: Monday - 5:00 p.m.: Social News and School News.

The answer to that, in my judgment, is that yea, as a community and individual businessman and as a citizen of the community should give us good news. It is not for us to print the good or the bad news but ALL news. If there has been an area of wrong-doing- , whether it be on Main Street or at the White House, the journalist should have to tell you about talks. The County Commission will not reverse its decision to grant a conditional use permit to the Haynes brothers because they are afraid that the Haynes brothers will file suit against them. It matters not that this salvage yard will be a detriment to the community of Ivins and a blight on the landscape.

We are going to fight the Establishment of this junk yard. iL Whether you are a banker, an industrial-isa merchanL publisher or editor, we all have one thing in common we are Americans. And as Americans, we subscribe to the document known as the Constitution, the greatest instrument of democracy ever written. While the Magna Carta, the previous model of freedom, is no longer in direct use as an instrument of British governmenL our Constitution is still a viable document in daily use and continually updated to meet changing needs through the amendments. Think of us as newspaper people who have heard again and again from the superintendent of schools, aldermen, mayor or the police chief who answered the newspapers inquiry by saying, This is really classified information." How many times have we in the newspa- been given the paternalistic attibusiness per tude of "this is not good to publish"? Who is the judge? How many times have editors-reporter- s been asked, "We would appreciate it if you would refrain from using this item" whether its a Main Street item, in the State Capitol or to some of our top reporters in the nation's Capitol? This is a sign of the times and these are the days when we really need the help of the business community to make America work. If men who carry the free enterprise banner refuse to stand up and be heard, who will? Give us the right to practice your right! what not to write. I have heard it said many times in small communities that everyone knows whats happening and a newspaper only verifies iL It goes further than that. How many times have you been at a basketball game and watched some local kid get real hot on the floor sinking baskets and free throws right and left and how many of you have kept an accurate, foolproof account of that total? After the game, you might go to the score table and irritate them. But, you do check the newspaper for the box score to revive that memory and have the correct facts.
