Mr. President. how any Senator. if he divests himself of his political interest. his affinity for administration patronage. and the appropriation hog trough. can doubt in his inner consciousness that this message of the news writers speaks the truth. British censorship of the press in the days of John Wilkes started a revolution throughout England and was partly responsible for emigration to America. Thomas Jefferson. who one time was% worshiped in this country as the founder of Democracy with a big "D ". had In mind the persecution of John Wilkes. John Miltons defense of free printing. and Lord Glenvilles attempt to throttle the press in order to stem the rise of American independence. when he wrote article I of the American Bill of Rights calling for the rights of free speech and the freedom of the press.
