SUPPRESSION OF NEWSPAPER
Reasons Given In Commons
́LONDON, Jan. 22 (Reuter),—The suppression of the Com. munist newspaper "Daily Worker," provoked a miniature debate at question-time in the House of Commons to-day.
The Home Secretary, Mr Herbert Morrison, said that the nction of the authorities was not taken because of any recent change or development in the character of this publication nor because of the appearance in it of some particular articles, but because it had been for a long period the settled policy of the "Dally Worker" to try to create a state of mind in which readers would refrain from co-operating in the national WAY effort and become ready to hinder that effort.
It was his firm conviction that the freedom of the press should be main- tained even at the risk that it may sometimes be abused. But there is wide difference between accepting wide such occasional risks and allowing the continuous publication of newspapers whose deliberate purpose is to weaken the will of the people to achieve victory in the most momen- tous struggle in our history.
The object of its propaganda. is lu cause the downfall of the democratic constitutional government regardless of the conseruences to the fate of Britain and her ailles.
