Breaking down a longtime barrier to the flow of information abroad, Japan's newspaper editors voted today to allow foreign journalists to join the exclusive press clubs that have jealously guarded access to Government officials and important corporate and financial data.

The Boston Globe, one of the few large American newspapers that remain under family control, is to be sold to The New York Times Company under a $1.1 billion merger agreement approved yesterday by the boards of both companies. The deal provides that The Globe will retain its management and editorial autonomy. Yet it would add to the decades-long centralization of American communications, under which many independently owned news organizations have been sold or closed down. It would also considerably expand the role of the Times Company and its controlling family, the Sulzbergers, in the country's media. Purchase Price a Record The purchase price, to be paid largely in the stock of The New York Times Company, is the highest ever for an American newspaper, securities analysts said this week as rumors of the proposed deal spread in Boston and on Wall Street.

It claims to have been the first big newspaper in the country to call for an American withdrawal from Vietnam. During the agonies of Boston's school integration struggle in the 1970's, someone fired shots at its headquarters in Dorchester. In the Brahmins' Boston of the late 1800's, it battled hospital rules that barred Roman Catholic priests, even if their task was to administer the last rites to their Irish immigrant parishioners. In the more than a century since its founding, The Boston Globe -- usually self-consciously responsible, sometimes flamboyantly liberal -- has helped shape the identity of Boston and played a part in the life of the nation.
