OUTLINE news That
SHOULD Be CENSORED
Committee on Public information
Issues Bulletin for Guidance OF
Newspapers.
CBy Associated Press }

Washington, May 2S.-Regula-
tions for the guidance Of the American
press in carrying out the voluntary
censorship the newspapers have i'm
posed upon themselves since the
United States entered the war were
issued Saturday by the committee on
public information. Virtually all the
matter specified by the committee as
dangerous and liable to be OF value to
the enemy is of the character which
most newspapers of their own accord
scrupulously have eliminated from
their columns.
In making public the regulations,
copies Of which have been mailed to
every daily paper in the country,
George Creel, chairman, announced
that the censorship function would be
subordinate to the task Of giving the
people information.
THE one effect will be to open the
business of the government so far as
may be proper and possible to the in
spection of the people," he said.
Channels of information will be clear
ed of deadwood, permitting a freer
and more continuous flow and in every
sane and prudent manner officials of
the government will be induced to give
fullest recognition to the truth that
the public support is largely a matter
of public understanding"

Rio De Janeiro, May 2s.-The COM
mittee on foreign relations in the

ton of the decree of April %, 1917

DO .
NOT DROP PLAN
FOR CONVENTION
Every County With Single
Exception Has Arranged
to Name Delegates
UP TO SECRETARY
FOR FINAL DECISION
If He Refuses to Certify
Nominee, Matter Goes
To The Courts
DENIS WILL MEET MAY 81.

DEmS WILL WHI Ole
A meeting of the Democratic
congressional committee, named
by Chairman w. e. Byerly, will be
held in Grand Forks Thursday,
May 81, to discuss the situation
and determine on action that the
Democrats will take.
The decision of Republican leaders
in the First congressional district to
proceed with plans for holding a dis
trict convention to nominate a candi-
date for congress to succeed the late
Representative H. 7. Helgesen, in spite
of the contention of the attorney gen.
eral and the governor that the petition
system of nomination governs, Will
mean a court airing of the questions
involved.
If the Republican convention slated
to be held at Grand Forks on June 2O
is carried out, and Fargo leaders with
in the ranks of the Republican party
are certain that the convention Will
be held, it will then be for the secre-
tary of state to say whether or not he
will certify the nominee of that con-
Vention as the regularly nominated
Republican candidate.
Should Secretary Of State Hall ac-
cept the attorney generals ruling, 1t
would devolve upon the supporters OF
the convention nominated candidate
to mandamus him, bringing the matter
to the attention of the supreme court.
Only twenty days time elapses be-
tween the time of the con-
vention and the date OF the
election. Under the terms of the spec
iaI election law which governs the
Republicans in their plans for the con-
vention, no provision is made as to the
time that must elapse between the
convention and the election, though,
under ordinary conditions, thirty days
must eIapse. The secretary Of state
might refuse to certify the convention
nominee on that ground.
EVERY county in the district, with a
single exception, according to reports
received in Fargo, has arranged for
holding a county convention to name
delegates.
