    FOR RELEASE UPON DELIVERY ADDRESS By HONORABLE J. HOWARD McGRATH ATTORNEY GENERAL OF TEE UNITED STATES Prepared for Delivery at AMASA HOWE AWARD DINNER of THE BOSTON PRESS CLUB Copley Plaza Hotel Boston, Massachusetts Thursday, March 8, 1951 7:00 F.M. Tao inner essence of the conflict that divides the world in two ar~ed campa io. , it seems to me, expressed in this meeting here tonight. We are to discuss ·the principle of FREEDOM OF THE PRESS IN A COLD WAR. Freedom means a newspaper's right to be itself, to dress its news and editorial columns as i-t pleases, and to take its chances in the competition of the market place for public approval and support with other journals in the community. It means, for example, that The Boaton GlcbG shall continue to enjoy its right to be judicial on its editorial page and broad and all­ eneompaesing 1.n its coverage of the foreign, national and the local news. It mean; that Th~ Bosten Post may be as enterprising as it has always been, t and as reflective of the newspaper likes of its large, enthusiastic and loyal r~aders. It means that the Hearst publications in this city shall not be abridged in their desire to pr.esent the news as they see it, and J to comment on it editorially and in their news columns, if they like, according to whatever happens to be the twist and bent of the Hearst p61icy. FREEDOM OF THE PRESS TO ME MEANS FREEDOM OF THE PRESS.

First, I appreciate the close cooperation which I received from persons formally involved--Jim Weaver, Sidney Hess, Harry Siegfeld and others at CROND; Jim Dorsey, Kathy Gallery, and Sally Lewis at MIT's Center for International Studies; and Roy Salzman and others at the Arthur D. Little Corporation. This work was financially supported by a fellowship from CROND and was administered by the MIT Center for International Studies. The Arthur D. Little Corporation was used as a consultant in the preparation of part of the report. The computer experiment could never have been performed in so short a time if it were not for the generous assistance and long hours which were voluntarily provided by Ron Zeilinger and his expert staff at the MIT Computation Center and by Elmer Bartels, Cynthia Benson and Helen Forweiler all of Bedford, Massachusetts.
