Mrs. Allende's visit and the New York press

Mrs. Hortensia Allende, widow of the martyred Chilean President Salvador Allende, arrived in New York last week. Mrs. Allende, whose husband was gunned down by the CIAbacked fascist junta last Sept. 11, came here to tell the United Nations of the fascist terror raging in her home country.

While unjustly limited in her activity by discriminatory State Department rulings, she nevertheless met with trade unionists, public officials and other notables.

But readers of the New York Times, the Daily News, the New York Post hardly knew of it. Nor did the wire services do any better.

Only the Daily World covered her arrival and stay here, not only because it was newsworthy but, above all, because of its dedication to the struggle against fascism. We view the struggle for the restoration of Chilean democracy as part of the struggle of the American working people against reaction.

Isn't the scandalous coverage given Mrs. Allende by the commercial press one more reason for supporting the Daily World's Fund Drive?
