Press Guards Freedom
Next week thc hundreds of newspapers, both large
small, across the United States will take time to remind
public of the vital part the press plays in maintaining democ¬
racy in this country and throughout the free world.
The occasion for this reminder is the 21st annual National
Newspaper week, which will be observed Oct. 15-21. Aptly
enough in this critical |>eriod of human destiny "Your News¬
paper—Freedom's Guardian" has been adopted as thc theme
for National Newspaper Week.
Your newspaper is freedom's guardian. It is a commonly
known fact thatw hen a i>erson or group of individuals seeks
to control a country by force, freedom of thc press and com¬
munication is the first lilierty to be restricted.
The struggles for a free and governmentally independent
press predates the founding of the United States.
"Publick Occurrences — Both Forreigrt and Domestick,"
the first newspaper in the original 1. Colonies was sup¬
pressed in 1690 after its first edition.
Since that time, a free press has become one of the driving
forces in our country-
Thomas Jefferson, author of the Declaration of Independ¬
ence, fully realized the importance of an unrestricted press.
"Our liberty." lie said, "depends on freedom of thc press, and
that cannot be limited without being lost."
Ever since freedom of the press was guaranteed in thc
Bill of Rights the press has endeavored to protect the right
and privileges of its citizens and keep thc electorate
formed on the issues and problems confronting mankin.
With the passage of time the im.wrtance of a free press
has not been diminished. It has continued to expand. Your
press constantly seeks to protect our democratic civiiizat
from the ravages of the cancerous spread of communism.
Guardian and sentinel against tyranny, bigotry and c
ruption, the newspaper remains a beacon of truth for
readers and its country. The Collegian in its own small v
shall endeavor to continue bearing thnt touch of truth for
the community of Fresno State College.

Campus Politics Muzzled
right of free expression in politics is one of the cor
nerstones of American democracy.
Yet vital as this link may be to freedom, it has l«e„ mtA
from beneath the feet of two campus organizations dedicaw
to exploring and promoting the 1960 president-
These two groups, the Young Democrats and the Youn,
Republicans, have been informed by a bulletin from Gordon
Wilson, associate dean of students, that they "must J!
conduct organized political campaigns for any candidates sad
may use posters and signs only to announce meetings and
speakers."
Dean Wilson's ruling on posters is justifiable for the sio.
. e reason that by the time Nov. 8 rolls around FSC studentj
would cetrainly be tired of seeing Senator Kennedy's bushy
locks of hair and vice president Nixon's burly Mat* eyebrow
plastered on every bulletin board and signpost on campus.
