Mr. aud Mrs. Doyal Draper of AiIboHu Mis. A. D. lab«|i Sunday Menace to 1 The Free Press II A free press is free only so long as it is free from Hie interference of government.” The words are those of Stanford Smith, general manager of the American Newspaper Publishers Association. He added, “Unfortu¬ nately, in these days of complex newspaper operations, government can interfere with a free press without the necessity of license. The newspaper business can be sub¬ jected to pressures not anticipated by the Constitution." The free press has been destroyed in nation after nation in modern times. And, as Mr. Smith empha¬ sized, the U. S. government has taken certain steps in the same direction. A salient example is a market news service which the De¬ partment of Agriculture started last August. It operates in direct compe¬ tition with private news agencies. All contracts for the service are continually subject to the approval of the Department, and it can can¬ cel them whenever it so pleases. In other “words, it has full power of censorship, and the service can ' be used as an instrument of government propaganda. THIS IS just one more proof of the fact that big government is the enemy of freedom. We don’t live under dictatorship yet But we have been moving, step by step, in that direction. And only an in¬ formed and aroused public can put a halt to the ominous trend.

Established 189* $40 Million In State Funds Required For Highway Program ATLANTA, May 14 — State Highway Director Jim L. Gillis today praised President Johnson’s program to combat poverty in Georgia’s mountain region, but em¬ phasized that it will require some $40,000,000.00 in additional State matching funds to carry out the Highway Department’s share of program. “A vital part of this program is the construction of new highways and feeder routes to make the region more accessible to economic development. These roads will be built with Federal and State funds, and it is estimated that it will require some $40 million in State matching funds above and beyond the current Federal aid programs to carry out the develop¬ ment of this mountain network,’’ Mr. Gillis said. Ivan the Terrible Had a Backache CZAR IVAN may have been Terrible because of an aching back, says a Soviet anthropologist who studied the infamous 16th century Russian emperor’s bones. Ivan’s skeletal structure indicates he had a disease that makes it difficult to stand or bend over and may have been responsible for the towering rages which made life miserable for his subjects. Pres. Andrew Johnson Believed Civil Rights To be Power Gimmick President Andrew Johnson ve¬ toed the Civil Rights Bills in the 1860’s and his comments on these bills of one hundred years ago also apply to the bill pending now. Here is part of what he said ta one of his veto messages to the Congress: // In all our history, no such sys¬ tem as that contemplated by the details of this bill has ever before been proposed or adopted. They establish for the security of the colored race safeguards which go infinitely beyond any that the general government has ever pro¬ vided for the white race. In fact, the distinction of race end color, is, by the Bill, made to operate in favor of the colored and against the white race. They Interfere with the municipal regulations of the States, with the relations existing exclusively between a State and its citizens, or between inhabitants of the same State — an absorp¬ tion and assumption of power by the general government which, if acquiesced in, must sep and de¬ stroy our Federative system of limited powers, and break down the barriers which preserve the rights of the States. It is another step, or rather stride, to central¬ ization and the concentration of all legislative power in the national government." Civil Rights Bill Discriminates Against White Population In one speech, Sen. Robert C. Byrd, D-W.Va., charged that the administration rights bill was “largely a product of the threats and fears that have accompanied demonstrations.” “The so-called civil rights bill will not accord any new civil rights to anyone, but . . . will be the according of prefenterial treatment to non-whites, especially in the hiring, firing, and promotion of emplayees,” Byrd said. His Majesty England’s King James I, an un¬ remitting opponent of smoking, once wrote anonymously: “A cus¬ tom loathsome to the eye, hateful to the nose, harmful to the brain, dangerous to the lungs, and in the black stinking fume thereof, near¬ est resembling the horrible Stygian smoke of the pit that is bottom¬ less.” NATION A l (OITOIIAL A TI $:$.61 P * « - Senior Class - Richard Wheeler, President Carolyn Standridge, Charles Hood, Kay Dorsey, Stanley Hefner, San¬ dra McKinney, Richard Palmer Rachel Alexander, Gary Hunt, Linda Franklin, Ernest Christy, Lavon West, Warren Glover, Bar¬ bara Dorsey, Jimmy Parker, Kay Howard, Walter Vandiver, Eva Cantrell, Vernon Lovell, Patricia McGuire, Lanier Brock, Sandra Winkler, Jerry Abernathy, Stam acia Partin, John Black, Ann Dor¬ sey, Leon Thomason, Gail Thomas, Jerry Cantrell, Linda Anderson, Edwin Lusk, Mildred Crumley, Roger Wilkes, Linda Thomas, Ralph Hogan, Dinah Wheeler, Jesse Loggins, Carolyn Bowen, Richard Cathey, Doris Blalock, Donald Cau dell, Janice Chastain, Clyde Turner, Jr., Cheryl Gibbs, Powell Ayers, Brenda Adams, Clarence Shelnut, Annette Allen, Shirley Fortner, Naomi Sosebee, Elaine Reed, Mi chael Black, Martha Pardue, Ken neth Shelnut, Marlene Turner, Wayne Sosebee, Ruth McClure, Dwight Ash, Wanda Hopper, Jack Shuler, Christine Lawson, Bruce Adams, Angela Nix, Ronnie Dor sey, Rebecca Campbell, Allan Black, Dale Kimsey, Mike Barrett, Bar¬ bara Chitwood, Homer Thomas, Janice Sims, Leroy Black, Donna Turner, Guy Miller, Sharon Trotter, Artist Gunter, Veleta Palmer, Jakie Clark, Sharon Edwards, Rondal Dockery, Judy Black, Johnny Burke, Diane Autry, Philip Ward, Vivian Warwick, Jimmy Bla¬ lock, Jackie Thomas, Carl Rogers, Martha Staton, Joel Brown, Jean Nix, Keith Alexander, Ellen Sea bolt, Dennis Lee, Sandra Rogers, Jim Lockaby, Pat Carlyle, Virginia Howard, Margie York.

ANON. Postal Chief Laments Mail Delivery Slips CLEVELAND, Ohio, May 11 (UPI) — Postmaster General John A. Gronouski is concerned about the scattered lapses in postal service which he said have given a blade eye to the entire system. “I know that we are handling 70 billion pieces of mail and that the missent or delayed letters represent a tiny fraction of the total,” Gronouski said. “But when a letter goes astray or arrives late, all the good things done by the postal system . . . are obliterated in the minds of that letter’s re¬ cipient and sender."
