The commission refused the railroads

Alleged Loss of Papers from
CensOr's Office in New
York to Be Investigated
ATTENTION ALSO
TO OTHER FAULTS
Head Of Bureau in Washington Denies
That Valuable Documents Were Lost
Representative Britten Demands
That Matter Be Probed.

WASHINGTON, Feb IAN investi-
CATION into alleged theft of valuable
papers concerning propaganda in neu-
trail country, from the New York office
of the mail censorship, will be demand
ed in the house today by Representa-.
tive Fred A. Britten, (nl), member
of the naval affairs committee.
Mr. Britten has prepared resolution,
which asks for thorough inquiry by
the committee on postoffices and post
roads, with the avowed object of ar
irving at recommendations for the i'm
provement it may deem necessary.
The charge that valuable papers have
been stolen has been officially denied by
the censorship board here. Mr.. Brit
ten insists that papers have been stolen.
He declared he could produce a witness
before the proper committee who is
prepared to swear to the specific papers
which have been taken from the files
of the New York censorship office and
name the specific papers and dates on
which they were taken. This evidence
Mr.. Britten said, his witness could sub
stantiate with affidavits from others in
4 position to know the truth.
Mr.. Britten calls attention to other
alleged faults in the censorship system
in his resolution. He points out cit is
said that no well defined policy or plan
for the censorship of foreign incoming
or outgoing mails is being followed
but that indiscriminate censorship pre-.
walls with no prospect of development
INTO efficient operation on large
scale He points out also cit is es
timated about 3 per cent of foreign
mail Is now being censored at an az.
nroXimate pay roll cost to the govern
ment of $1,000 day.
The resolution recites, too, ''whole
bags of outgoing registered mail hav,
been detained for days, presumably fol
censor purposes, and then permitted tc
90 forward without receiving any at
tention whatsoever
Mr.. Britten set forth in his resolu
ton also "there appears to be no crit
cism against any member of the censor
ship board lin Washington, but Their,
| does appear to be well confirmed oppo
sition in New York in that it is ex
travagant, incomplete, inefficient anl
ineffective. =
| For these reasons and on account o.
| the conflicting statements regarding tn,
| alleged theft Of documents Of the great
est value, III showing the operation OF
| the German propaganda system in
neutral country, Mr.. Britten demand
action on his resolution and that III
matter be thoroughly probed.

it has given to the Red Cross the ar

THINGS TO REMEMBER
ABOUT EASTER SUNDAY

DRUG store last sunday morning
disclosed the fact that hardly any
lwo persons have the same idea In
regard 10 Easter. - why II came on
a different date every ycar,-whai
event regulated the date. etc.
Here is the real facts IN the case
and should be- remembered by all
Christians.
Easter Is the festival commemor-
aling the resurrection of Christ. oh
served in the Roman Catholic. the
Greek, Anglican. Lutheran. and 9TH
cr branches of the Christian church.
By the first Christians II was con-
,idcrcd Ia continue the feast Of the
passover, at which the paschal lamb.
q type Of Christ, was sacrificed.
Hence ~ name In Greek .pascha .
French 0paqucsI. and other Ro-
nance languages h taken from the
Hebrew pesach. passover. The
English name comes from the Ang-
lo-Saxon Eostre. q goddess Of lipht
or spring whose festival was cclc-
hraicd IN April.
There was long a dispute In the
Christian church as to the proper
Time for holding Easter. the Chris
lians " the east celebrating Il on
The same day A. that on which the
Jewish passover fell. that Is. the
lith day of Nissan hence they were
called puario dccimanN. while the
