He says. “I am thor- oughly impressed with the view that it would be unwise to heckle and annoy the press.” If the Mayor or anybody else in Buffalo has been libeled by the newspapers of that town the aggrieved party has cause of action He can appeal to the courts and if he establish his case he can collect damages. Moreover, he can appear before any local gr: y and press a charge of crimi libel. Speaking broadly, the press should be permitted to go farther in criti cism of public offi icism of private individuals. Jeffer- son thought so. He regarded cri cism as healthful, as a proper inter- pretation of the slogan that “‘eter- nal vigilence is the price of lib- erty.” And yet thin-skinned officials frequently caught in the act, are first to invoke legal measures against journals that jot down their indiscretions. All thin-skinned officials are not crooks, but we never have known a political buc- caneer, a crook feasting at the pub- lic crib, who was not an enemy of the press and glib in its denuncia- ti AN UNABANDONED FARM France has never had to worry about abandoned farms.
