Perhaps the most importan role of the correspondents, said Mr„Wenger, is in helping to keep alive freedom of the press, a vital component of democracy "While we take this for granted It is a precious right for which, many people in suppressed lands risk their lives." He referred ' to the role of an Exeter minister, Rev. Bren de Vries of Trivitt Memorial Church, who joined the Dutch underground during World war two to help publish and dis- tribute a "free" newspaper 'under the constant threat of German occupation troops. Correspondents render "truly a great public service," the. OWNA president stated," and they can derive from their ef- forts a genuine satisfaction through their achievements and contributions to their communi- ties." They help to maintain the "in- timate" role ef the weekly news - !paper by their close contact with - which bind together "our great y family of readers."
