PROTEST AGAINST INVASION
 OF LIBERTY OF THE PRESS
Made by Editor of New York Times Before Senate Ship Lobby Inquiry.

Washington, March 15.-A vigorous protest against what he termed an invasion of the liberty of the press was voiced today by Charles R. Mil Ter, editor-in-chief of the New York Times, before the senate ship purchase bill lobby inquiry committee.
 Summoned as a witness, MT. Miller had been questioned in detail by Sen ator Walsh, chairman of the commit tee, concerning editorials and news articles appearing in the Times relat- ing to the ship purchase bill. trust prosecutions, the European war and compensation to railroads for carry ing mail. He declared emphatically that the news columns of his paper were never influenced by it's editorial policies and that no outside influences could make themselves felt in the paper.
 MT. Miller resented any insinuatfon that there was "any effort to pervert or suppress the news in the Times and as he concluded his statement, protested against the committees pro- cedure
 q feel" he said, that inquisitorial proceedings of this kind would have very marked tendency, if continued and adopted as a policy, to reduce the press of the United States to the level of the press in some of the central European capitals, the press that has been known as the reptile press, that crawls on it's belly every day to the foreign office and to the government officials and ministers to know what it may say or shall say, to receive its orders. For that reason I cannot help feeling that a proceeding of this kind and such questions and minute in- quiries and I will not say insinuations but lntimat1ons as you have in the accomplishment of your function felt to be necessary, constitute an invasion of the liberty of the press

 Business men and others who are not members of the association will today receive letters from the com lnittee asking them to cooperate in the campaign. by joining the assovia- tion and Boys Secretary J. H. Ely has had 125 letters addressed to the members of the boys department ask ing them to aid in the campaign by bringing in at least one new member before night. Everybody who brings in a new member is entitled to the free supper tonight at 6.30 o'clock, to- gether with the new member and the other men and boys on the team.
 The Y. M c. A. building is the town home for manly men and boys and while they already have about 800 names on their rolls they covet every selfrespecting man and boy for mem bership and those who have charge of the work will endeavor to interest all who come within the range of the influence of the association.

 Any man or boy (11 years or over) ) of good moral character without re- gard to his religious belief is eligible TOT membership. The work of the as- sociation is three fold, for the body, mind and spirit, it being purely opti- cal on the part of the individual which department he wishes to elect.
 One of the most important divisions of the work is the Junior department and the entire west end of the lob- by is set apart for the use of the boys; here games of various kinds are in almost constant use and outside of school hours this is indeed a. lively spot.
 Special attention is given to the physical needs of the boy in the large well equipped gymnasium, and the Sunday afternoon meetings and weekly Bible classes place before the boys the right ideals of life. No fea- ture is more popular with the boys than the summer camp conducted in July on the shore of the Niantic river.
