Keep Facts Out of Papers.

Washinton, Aug. 27.-Army censor
ship orders barring from transmission
abroad certain features of the recent
report of the senate military sub-com-
mittee which Investigated aircraft
production were sharply attacked to-
day in the senate by Republican SEN
ators. They declared information in
the report already is known to the
allies and the enemy and charged
that the purpose of the orders was to
prevent the information going to the
American people.
Senator Weeks of massachusetts,.
who brought up the subject, proposed
an investigation by the senate print
ing committee to determine whether
the congressional record in which the
aircraft report was printed falls un-
der the censorship ban. He deferred
pressing the motion pending action on
the manpower bill.

Weeks denounced the action as most
drastic and ill-advised."

senator Lodge. It's perfectly plain.
The only people in the world who do

means that any paper publishing this
report Is caused to lose all the postage
on Its foreign circulation as we'll as the
papers themselves. All the important
newspapers daily send thousa nds of
copies abroad. The expected result, of
course, is that newspapers so de-

that means the American people would
not get the information

the report was &C. scrod because it

The president has asked 1t, the boys

secretary of the committee and A. D.
Birch, of Topeka, was named treas
urer.
Taking the chair, Murphy sounded
the keynote of the Democratic cam
paign in Kansas this fall. Essentially
it was "the Democrats have proven
their worth in the war. and it is
incumbent on the people of Kansas to
show their faith in the administration
by sending a Democratic dele cation to
Washington to support President Will
son." In his speech, Murphy took oc-
for the Democratic ticket even in
counties, where there are no Bourbon
candidates for county office.
At Party Council.
In the party council meeting which
followed directly on the heels of the
state committee meeting, the same
harmonious and pull-together spirit
was apparent. Congressman Jouett
Shouse of Kinsley, was made tempor-
ary chairman of the council, without
opposition. F. E. Whitney. of Tope-
ka was named secretary, tho after his
election he resigned and nominated
Mrs. Caroline G. Drenning, of Arkan-
sas City, for the office.
Mrs: Drenning was promptly
elected.
Jouett Shouse opened the meeting
of the party council with a reference
to the speech of Murphy earlier in the
day as the keynote of the Democratic
campaign. Shouse indicated that the
Democratic party expects to stand on
it's war record, and he said that he
had told President Wilson that Kan
sas is firmly behind the president on
the war, and that Kansas is expected
to back up the president in his stand
by giving him the support of full
Democratic Washington party"
Shouse pointed out to the Democrats
at the party council the exact lines on
which the Bourbon political offensive
will be waged. He pointed to the pas
sage of the federal reserve bank act
as the savior of the financing of the
war problems. He told of the bene-
fits the soldiers overseas have derived
from government ownerships of rail-
roads He spoke with pride of the ad-

CAIN EASIER NOW
Took Only A Square Miles in
Four Months in 1915.
Took 116 Square Miles in Four
Days, Aug. 21 to 25.

London, Aug. 27.-Interesting
comparisons between the results
achieved On the British and French
fronts in the Somme area with those
of the first battle of the Somme are
made by a military expert here, He
points out that in four months, from
July 1 to October 81 1916, the Brit
ish won forty-four. square miles of
land. In four days. between August
21 and August rs, the British won
i116 square miles with casualties
amounting to only $4,000.
In other words, he says, between
two and three times as much ground
has been taken at an infinitely smaller
cost In the four days under discus
sion, the British won much more ter
ritory than both the British and
French armies recovered in the whole
first battle of the Somme.
