THE TRUTH WILL PREVAIL
Thanks to the United Press Associa-

count of that Zeppelin bombing of
the heart of London
1t illustrates the idiocy of the Brit
ish censorship in attempting to- con-
ceal the truth. The reports permit
ted to be sent out by that censor
ship were lies, or half-truths, which
are more vicious than downright lies.
There is sensible policy in sup
pressing plans yet to be carried out,
on the movements of battleships OF
troops concealment of which may be
an advantage, but there can be no
excuse or justifable reason for con-
cealment or distortion of accomplish
ed facts. A lie exposed is ten times
a lie in effects.
In respect of war facts, the truth
is bound to eventually appeal and the
cause of the liars is bound to suffer
through the supposed necessity to do
the lying. There never yet was lie
that didn't eventually do the liar
more harm than good. g..
The United Press, under obligations
to none of the foreign bureaucies, de-
serves the endorsement of the neu-
trail world for it's honesty and wis
dom in handling the war news. It
has, in every instance, given the au-
thority for it's facts, when possible,
and when such authorization was
not polite or possible, because of

tiated its statements by the testimony

of unbiased travellers arriving in this
country from the scenes of conflict.
Not until Americans have arrived
in America have we got the whole
truth about that Zeppelin raid on
London, for instance. The British
censors, controlling mail and cable
lines, lied. They lied futilely and un-
necessarily. The United Press and
other honest, unbiased agencies were
bound to present the truth, finally
and those foolish censors knew it.

for the report that John D. Rookie,

part in the Ludlow massacre.
1t has been demonstrated that q
labor leader, who merely advised a
general policy and was not within
miles of the perpetration of a specific
