Freedom of the Press
Fredoom of the press and the dangers to it are dis
cussed in a recently published report of the Commission on
Freedom of the Press. 'Financed by Time, Inc. and the
Encyclopaedia Brittanica, Inc., the commission was com
posed of 13 American men, who, although they are not
journalists, are considered to be philosophers and thinkers
of great intellectual ability, x
The report itself does not reveal any new or startling
facts about the press, but it does confirm our ideas that
the standard methods of communication have not done
the job they should and have fallen down in many ways
Because it has fallen down, its freedom is endangered,
although perhaps not immediately, by a great public de
mand for governmental control 01 the press.
The problem as it is studied by the commission deals,
of course, with city newspapers, not college publications,
but the conclusions it reaches apply to the school papers,
too. Instead of presenting a "truthful, comprehensive and
intelligent account of the day's events .
the exchange of comment and criticism . . . projection of rp t oetnlilieli

gence," any media of commication rely on "scoops and
sensation." Other forces acting to make reform of the
press essential are the pressure of the audience and the
bias of the owners.
Recommendations to the government, the press and
the public are set forth by the commission. To us, these
recommendations seem idealistic and, we are afraid, im
practical, because the men who made them are philosophers

The Lincoln Association of Life
Underwriters are sponsoring a
booth in the Union this week to
encourage veterans to reinstate
their life insurance. This is part
of a nation-wide movement to re
instate policies.
Fred M. Waggoner, regional in
surance officer, said Monday, that

Dear Editor:
In regard to Mike Ueoka's letter
in the Rag of May 18, concerning
the rather crude refusal of a local
cafe to serve at Nisei veteran of
World War II, some of us feel the
cafe might also wish to be re
lieved of serving those who are
not in sympathy with its discrim
inatory tactics. In the interests of
accommodating the cafe in such a
desire, it would be appreciated if
Mr. Ueoka and the Rag will sup
ply the establishment's name.
Sincerely,
Madge Reinhardt

Dirt
Diggings
BY JOHN SOENNICHSEN
AND SKIP STAHL.
As introduction we would like
to say that we have no political
axe to grind, but instead we would
like to call certain events to the
f the student body and
faculty. Events that are bound to
occur, and events that can easily
be missed by all concerned, not
because of apathy, but instead De
cause the job to be done is too big.
It has been rumored that all
is not as it should be out at Hus
kerville. It seems that certain
Lincoln firms have been granted
an exclusive monopoly of certain
forms of trade at the airbase,
with the understanding that the
goods would be sold at a price
equal to or lower than those
charccd in Lincoln. This, of
course, would be a break for the
families of Huskerville.
But such, apparently, is not the
case. In effect, it seems that the
commodities sold at the airbase
are from two to three cents higher
per item than here in Lincoln. It
is our object to inquire why. We
aren't criticizing, but we would
like to know the why and what
for.
We believe that since an ex
clusive contract has been t-anted,
it is obvious that the terms of
this agreement should be lived up
to, not only by the university, but
also by the merchants involved.
We beleive that this agreement
should be enforced by the univer
sity and by the student body so
that the persons involved get a
fair deal. '..
YM, YW Show
Foreign Movie,
'The Puritan'
An advanced showing of "The
Purtain", second foreign film to
come to the campus this year,
proved to a small but attentive
audience that the success of a
motion picture can be based upon
something more than extravagent
sets, fine lighting effects and high
production costs in every aspect.
Filmed at less cost than a
Hollywood short, "The Puritan" is
an intensely dramatic film which
deals with the religious mania of
a youth "whose normal sensual
appetities have been overlaid by
a crust of religious fanaticism," as
described in a New Statesman and
Nation review.
Tickets for the movie to be held
Friday in the Temple at 8 p. m.
are available at the YM and YW
offices or from any YM member.
CHESS CLUB.
The regular meeting of the Uni
versity Chess club will be held in
Parlor C of the Union Tuesday at
