must bk right Raleigh. Dec. 9. ? Investigators for the beer Industry will visit 1 every North Carolina county dur- I log 1941 to make certain that re tail beer dealers conduct* reputu- 1 ble places of business. Edgar H. Bain, of Qoidaboro, State Director of the Brewers and North Carolina Beer Distributors committee, announced today tihat the industry's "clean up or close1 up" campaign has resulted in the! elimination of 136 undesirable beer outlets in 41 counties ? 109 by revocation, three by surrender of license, and 24 by refusal to re-license. "A great majority of beer deal ers conduct reputable places of < business," Colonel Rain said, "but ; there is a minority which disre gards the law and public decency. Our campaign is directed at t<hese scattered outlets. During 1941, our field representatives will check on these outlets and when necessary, we will request the lo cal authorities to revoke their li censes." During the past year. Bain said, more than 1.000 retail out lets in 84 counties were inspect ed. He emphasized that the "clean up" campaign will be carried to all counties in 1941 CHRISTMAS GIFTS BE LIKE THE EARLY BIRD.

SHKLTON If and when our press be comes dictated to by the pow ers of govern meuli official dom has been tossed iuto the ash can. Am erica. thanks to the fore-sight ed founders of our Democracy is the last re maining country in the world where ohe press is completely free. The newspapers were the first to appreciate what this free dom means and they are taking steps to forever guard that* valued freedom. From their editorials and institutional ads they are hammering home the facts that freedom brings. Their greatest campaign, however, is the contin- 1 ued presentation of facts about persons and the events they bring to pass. Here in your newspaper the facts are gathered, analyzed, well written and printed, free of color or opinion in order that you as a free American can reach your own opinion. True, on the editor ial page you find the editor and his staff expressing opinions. But here on the editorial page they ar^ engaging in another American right of free speech. Look not in t'he news columns for opinion, for here no one tries to influence your thought except by the presenta tion of all important facts. There is no Hitler or Goebbels telling American papers what to print. Only the greater weight of public { opinions ? these opinions that you reach yourself ? keeps you free in) America. Think of that tor a mo- ! ment1. If some Hitler. Stalin or I Mussolini could control your op-) inion they could enslave you with out any force. That is the way Hit- 1 ler conquered Germany. He con- 1 trolled t'he press. He told people i ouly his side. He told it over and over again. Finally, because theyi had nothing else on Which to base; their opinions, they all came to! agree with him. True, his sup- ! porters put u handful of people! in concentration camps. Bui- don't i make the mistake of believing] that lit- forced the people to agree j with him. The great mass of Ger- 1 mans were and are his supporters ! They goose sU*p for him. give up necessities tor him. They are dy-| inn lor him by the tens of thous-j ands. Here in America we get all ? sides of a question in facts, plus! the opinions of the leaders. Only, through these facta and this rig'.it! of ours to have them are our doors! of freedom kept open. Defend | that right ? not for the sake of the newspapers ? but' tor your own sake. ; 1 11?11 "The World In Flume*.
