USUAL CHANNELS
OF INFORMATION NOW
HAVE BEEN CLOSED

, WASHINGTON. May THE usual
channels Of information through which
news OF Americas relationships 10
foreign powers have up 10 now
reached the public were closed today
b. Secretary Lansing.
! An order bearing his name was
distributed broadcast TO state depart
ment officials instructlng them not 10
talk with newspapermen even on IN
significant matters OF fact or detail.
Henceforth under the order. the press
will not be able 10 discuss the back
ground OF complicated international
questions with the experts at the head
of each bureau.
:. The order says that hereafter all
news Of the department must be given
out either by the secretary himself, or
! by the newly created so-called bureau
OF foreign intelligence. Secretary
Lansing sees the newspapermen twice
daily, but does not pretend to be able
TO answer the maze OF questions which
every hour Of the day Is raised by
newspaper cables. The meetings are
becoming more and more perfunctory.
! The bureau Of foreign intelligence
! is about month old and is charged
mot only with the press but with sup.
plying news to all American missions
abroad. Usually very much behind
/; the press cables because OF the need
of cooling and DECIDING, the bureau
at the same time, because Of its rela-
tive lack of authority, confines itself
mostly to formal statements on news
facts and does not attempt to provide
1.-The background which gives interna-
rional news its real value.
y Consequently from now on, Il TO-
days order remains in effect. the
public will receive from the state
department only such perfunctory
news as the bureau gives out and such
fragmentary explanations as Secre-
itary Lansing himself finds time for
in the crush Of other work.
The bureau chiefs handling news OF
the far east, near east or western
Europe will not be able TO give the
public the benefit OF their expert
knowledge and intimate familiarity Of
their specialized situations.
