THE CENSORSHIP OF NEWS
PAPERS, ETC.

ThiaAs is one newspaper which
doesn kfeSent the attitude of PreSi
dent Wilson to place a censorship
on the newspapers of the country
If there wasn't single newspapt
disposed to give out news that
would be uf benefit to the enemy
there would be many who would
unwittingly do so, on account Of not
being able Tojudge correctly in the
short time SLOWED in the rush OF
newspaper work. Like all trades
and professions, there are hundreds
in the newspaper game who are not
too profcsenand make bad blum
ers. Then there are German e vs.
papers and other allied interests
liable to OVerstep the bounds. And
for the projection of the many the
few must be patient. just like in
most any other business, and as it
would be class legislation and an in
justice to pass law covering part
of the profession, the plan must
cover all. We do not think Uncle
Sans chief censorship would use
the blue pencil quite as freely as
has been done in Europe or would
keep anything from the people that
would be of vital interest to them.
We are engaged in worlds war
and it's no child's job and the sooner
we get this drilled intoour nOggins"
the better. The United States can't
carry on the war successfully if its
every secret is made known to the
enemy, and thee must necessarily
be- some restrictions thrown around
the individual and organizations
which by word or act would expose
secrets Uncle Sam would sacredly
guard We elect our Congressman
and Senators to pass the laws and
through our President see that they
are obeyed, then why shouldn't we
trust them? We must concentrate
our power through them; it would
be suicide to let every Individual or
Organization try to run the govern
Mlent.
Just the other day we noticed
feature article in a certain metro
politan newspaper, describing the
big fleet in a certain harbor, the &C.
tiVity of the sailors, everything in
readiness for the word go. 1t would
not take much calculation for a spy
td locate this big feet by the de-
scription given in the newspaper
and perhaps learn or do something
that would prove detrimental to our
country. This story should never
have been written and this IS what
the censorship is for, not to censor
legitimate news
If we stop to think, it is a serious
matter The loyalty of the people is
what preserves the government. If
a majority were of the same opinion
as a few in this country there would
be no America-that is if their
views are taken seriously. Each
man is a part and parcel of this
great land of the free and the brave
and it is the individual units that
preserve the nation.
"A man who refuses to co operate
with the government in keeping val
liable information from the enemy,
fails to register June 5th, or by
word, act or deed. shows disrespect.

measure up as an American citizen,
he is not to be trusted and is not the

and be true to ourselves and our
country.
