NEWSPAPER MEN
INJUNCTION is ASKED TO RE-
STRAIN TWO FROM INTERFER-
IN WITH CONTROL OF STAR.

S. Louis, Mo, Oct 23.-An injunc-
ton suit to restrain John C. Roberts,
millionaire, and Edward S. Lewis
from interfering with Frederick B.
Warrens editorial control of the
new st. Louis Star was filed in
the circuit court today by Warren.
who is a former New York news
paper man.
Warren alleges that he has an
eight-year contract with Roberts,
who recently purchased the st. Louis
Star Chronicle Publishing Company
from Nathan Frank, giving Warren
absolute control of the editorial pol
icies of the paper. He charges that
since Roberts purchased the paper
Roberts has interfered with HIM in
the exercise of his powers under
the contract and that such interfer-
ence has injured Warren's financial
interests in the paper.
Among mis- specific charges are
that Roberts and Lewis forced the
adoption OF a policy opposed TO
woman suffrage, which Warren has
espoused since he became editorial
director of the paper in August Of
last year, and that they took
stand against the cause of unioa
labor and the free disclosure Of cor
ruOtion in public and private affairs.
Warren further alleges that Rob
erts and Lewis deprived him of
control over the news and mechan-
ical departments of the apper.
