Freedom newspaper in Manila faces threats amid pledges to improve
The Manila based Freedom newspaper disputes threats to suspend operations while promising higher service and new features. Editor G H Fuller defends readers' support as 300 new subscribers join, noting advertisers like Dr William Danel and the American Commercial Co. He cites a lively editorial stance and a robust local press scene alongside a U S Senate session on the Nicaragua canal bill with Senator Bacon arguing against U S sovereignty over the Philippines. The article also covers amendments to the canal bill and an adjournment after a tense legislative day.
