TIE MAR NEWS.

Il is un-ortunaJe. from the view
point Of German sympathizers, that
there Is no direct means of communi-
cation with Germany. War news is
emanatlng almost exclusively from
sources hostile 10 the "Fatherland' for
the primary reason that England.
France and Belgium control the only
available cable lines.
The dispatches altering throush
from Berlin are moagre and So rigor-
,usly censored 10y the countries con-
trolling the avenues OF Information
that the Associated Press and other
reputable newsgatherins agencies are
banled for the time AT least, in pre-
senting accurately the Gormau-Aus-
trian view Of the progress of the war.
No correspondents other than those
known 10 be absolutely friendly 20 the
allied forces are allowed % follow the
field operations. The bulk Of the
available news is handed out 10y the
ccusors. Dispatches from France and
Belgium are FIRST censored at Paris
and Brussels and then re-censored at
London. BY the time they reach tie
newspapers they have a distinct anti
German color The Associated Press
has endeavored TO make this plain.
Yesterday it said.
1t must be remembered that all
published reports OF military OPP
erauons emanate almost eXclu-
s.yeIy from the side of the allied
French and Bel-ian armies. Noth-
ing whatever comes from The
German and Austrian side relating
10 military movements, and only
occasionally a brief item describ-
ing the result of past engage
ments Is made public from those
quarters The strict censorship
over the whole field makes It diff
dcult 70 estimate the value of the
news received"
Il is greatly 20 the credit Of the As
ISOLATED Press that il gives the source
OF the news in every censored dis
patch in which the information is open

that advertising" is yet in the mere

All through the ordeal the officers
and crew stuck to their posts, although
