NO censorship
APANESE PAPERS
EDITORS BELIEF

Belief in the Japanese community
today IL that the Jap2Tese newspapers
published IN Honolulu and elsewhere
in the territory will not be affected
by the new censorship Law over all
newspapers printed in foreign Ian
guages.
As soon as the news reached here
that President Wilson had issued OF
ders Of censorship over all newspa'
pers printed in foreign languages the
editors OF the four Japanese daliies
called upon Postmaster u. II. Mac
II Adam and asked him for full partie-
ulars regarding the operation OF the
new law. Mr.. MacAdam. they say
assured them that nothing Will be
done by his department until he re-
ceives definite instructions from
Washington.
The local japanese newspapermen
are OF the opinion that because Japan
Is a member OF the Entente alliance
Japanese newspapers will not be In
cluded in the censorship.

finitum. But they got new one sun
day. DR.. r. G. Aver Of the Elmer

debut yesterday in the new roe OF

hypo gunner stalked into the inner
sanctum OF the detective bureau,
locked the doors, called each sleuth
to the front OF the Office, looked at
his teeth and felt his pulse-and gave
him a shot of the needle. Then they
silently left the room and went on
a still hunt for the cops.
The reason for the new squad Is
the menace OF typhoid fever. Or.
Aver has received orders to innocu.
