Does not our press have the solemn responsibility to print all our facts rather than only one party's opinion or twisted reports? For example how many cititens in this election year have read these facts in their newspapers: That Dulles Eisenhower's foreign policy advisor had known Alger Hiss for years and had even discussed with him the current reports that Hiss was a Communist — all this before Dulles urged Hiss to accept the presidency of the Carnegie Endowment for International Peacel That Eisenhower and Dulles had it in their power as members of the Board of Trustees of this peace organization to vote to accept Hiss' resignation as president in 1948—but neither man spoke out against him then! That Stevenson's testimony that Hiss' repute I ion was so - "good" was one among many given freely by conservative men of high standing in the country men who went even further and said: "excellent reputation" "of highest quality" "finest" If you haven't read these things in your daily papers might it be that they portrayed an unpopular idea for surely It cannot be denied that they were news!
