Freedom from the Press
N Pasadena (U.S.) some months ago a | bevy of music-lovers went to the rail-_ way station to greet Arturo Toscanini. A Press photographer, Howard Ballew, was there. Wilfred L. Davis, of the Southern California Symphony Association, eyeing the camera, said, "Are you going to photograph Mr. Toscanini?" Ballew retorted: "None of your business." "But you can’t use flash-bulbs on Toscaninithey hurt his eyes," Davis protested, taking charge of the bulbs and smashing the camera. The police were called, and in the excitement Toscanini came and went, unphotographed. Ballew sued Davis for 25,000 dollars but the suit was dismissed, the judge holding that it was not the freedom of the Press but freedom from the Press that was at stake.
