PEOPLE DEMAND
DEFINITE NEWS OF WAR
Papers Filled With Complaints of
Censorship-Samples Of
the Protests.

Correspondence Of the Associated Press.
LONDON, October 9.-Englishmen are
becoming very impatient over the re-
fusaf of the press bureau to release
definite news of the fighting in France.
Every day the papers are filled with
complaints from indignant readers. who
are beginning to ridicule the judgment
of the censors and demand frank state
ments of the actual happenings at the
front
One Typical Letter.
This letter from the Globe is typical
of protests appearing in practically all
the daily papers:
'Sir: OF all the misdeeds of our
press bureau. surely the climax was
reached when, to people on the ten
terhoOkS of anxiety for intelligence
from the seats Of war, they offer the
contemplate drivel of the stories about
chauffeur's toilet and restaurateur's
lunch.
AT this tremendous crisis, when men
are massed in millions against each
other, and an indecisive engagement,
protracted beyond precedent. is raging;
when the future of England is hang
reau is nothing less than an insult to
the whole British nation.
Due reticence from aught that may
convey Information to the enemy is
commendable, though the bureau has
been singularly unfortunate in its
discrimination between what to publish
and what to suppress.

ceased came to his death from causes

their ridicule upon the press bureau,
both through the daily papers and

The following verses are from the

For the censors methods are somewhat blunt
In vain does the fourth estate implore
For a little more news from the fighting front

How a generals chauffeur does his hair

And that Tommy smiles when the guns go

And doesn't appear to care a hang.
