Mr. President. I rise today to lament the death of a distinguished New Yorker. Mr. Samuel I. Newhouse. On Wednesday. August 29. of last month. Mr. Newhouse passed away. and in his passing America lost one of its truly distinguished guardians of freedom. Mr. Newhouse was the son of immigrant parents. and his legacy is. indeed. an especial tribute to our Nation which welcomes those who would wish to enjoy the freedoms that our country offers. Thus it is most appropriate that Mr. Newhouse should have honored those freedoms himself by his assiduous devotion to a free press. His career spanned the great transition that took place in American journalism. and he both reflected and contributed to this transition in an important manner.
