THE PRESS
ESSENTIAL PART OF FREEDOM. The freedom of the Press was an essential part of that freedom which was the very life of the British people and which they were now defending with all their might against powerful forces arrayed against it. said the' Archbishop of Canterbury. Dr Lang, in a recent address. If ever the value of the freedom of the Press was macle clear it was now. when they saw what was happening in countries where it had been lost. There a controlled and servile Press had closed the minds of the people, deprived them of the power of judgment, and made a slave of their conscience.
