Abstract
The 1965 Assembly was a top level affair, with some 250 editors or editorial managers from 32 different countries. Among the speakers were Walter Lipmann, probably the most honoured of living journalists; the biggest newspaper tycoon, Lord Thomson; Cecil King, head of the huge Daily Mirror empire; Lord Shawcross, who spoke on the press and the law; and a Pulitzer prize-winning war correspondent just back from Vietnam. At a dinner in Hampton Court Palace, the British Prime Minister, Harold Wilson, spoke to the members for half-an-hour.
