- Allen J. 'Frank' Frederick: [Speaking on television] Our fourth and final panel member tonight is Mr. Frank Grover, the well-known crusading editor of the New York Evening Globe. Mr. Grover is filling in for H.R. Manley, editor and publisher of Real Truth magazine who, because of sudden illness, was forced to cancel his scheduled guest appearance. Now then, gentlemen, I think...
- Frank Grover: One moment please.
- Allen J. 'Frank' Frederick: Yes, Mr. Grover,
- Frank Grover: I'd like to explain Mr. Manley's sudden illness. The fact is that when I was asked to appear on this panel, I said I would be glad to do so on the condition that Manley was replaced. I insisted on this for a very simple reason. I am a publisher. I 'm proud of it. I won't sit on the same platform with a man who is dirtying my profession.
- Allen J. 'Frank' Frederick: Well, that certainly kicks us off into the subject of tonight's discussion, doesn't it? Now, Mr. Grover, you've used some rather, uh, strong language in relation to Mr. Manley and his magazine.
- Frank Grover: Not nearly as strong as I would like to use if we were off the air.
- [Audience laughter]
- Frank Grover: That was not intended as a joke. If our drinking water was being poisoned, none of us would think it funny. Why should we laugh at something that is doing us the same kind of damage?
