NEWS CENSORSHIP
in SENATE DISPUTE
Opposition to Espionage Bill Develop.
in Upper House.

Vigorous opposition to the sections of
the administrations bill to punish
espionage, dealing with the censorship Of
the press. has developed In the Senate
among the Republicans. The almost au-
tocratic power vested in the Secretaries
OF War and Navy was condemned as un-
warranted and subversive OF the consti-
tutional rights OF the citizen. The op-
position was FIRST taken up by Senator
Lodge, OF Massachusetts,.
Senator overman, of North Carolina,
In charge Of the bill. pointed out that the
section to which the objection had been
raised was drafted along lines suggested
by the representatives Of the newspapers
themselves. He demanded to know II the
Republicans wanted the whole cSnsor-
ship section stricken from the Dill.
Il would invest the President with
some power" retorted Lodge. but he ex-
planned that ultimately the President
would have to delegate the censorship to
some. specially authorized official and
that 1t should not be reposed In the
Secretaries Of the two war-making de-
partments
Senator Borsh said the Constitution
provided no way in which a censorship
legally could be established but that
reasonable conduct on the part OF edi-
tors can be punished as treason. Senator
johnson, OF California, also spoke in op-
position to the censorship section.
