ARGUMENTS CLOSED
over NEWS RIGHTS
Senator Johnson Maintains
A. P. Has Been as Guilty Of
Pirating as ]. N. Service.

Argument in the Injunction suit OF
the Associated Press against the In
ternational News Service in the United
States Supreme Court was concluded
yesterday.
THURSDAY, Samuel Untermyer Of New
York, for the Hearst service. denied
that the question of unfair competition
entered into the case.
In opening his argument for the IN
transitional News. Senator johnson de-
clared that from time immemoral
papers have scanned their rivals news
and published such items as they de-
sired with or without investigation as
they saw fit. This practice Is involved
in the case, he added, declaring the
Associated Press had been as guilty OF
pirating as the International News Ser
vice.
Senator johnson compared the case to
that Of the author who devotes his i1e
TO the creation Of something which pc
comes the property of the world. adding
that the Associated Press stands in no
different position. Referring to the
Tribune case, the senator argued the
Associated Press INDUCED in the very
Hearst service of practicing. He de-
clafed there is no law that prohibits
something that has once been published
from being subject to unrestricted pub
lcation.
Legal Side of Question.
Senator johnson confined himself
principally to the legal side OF the
question, declaring the question OF the
property right in news had often been
presented to courts for determination.
As examples, he cited the efforts made
by the New York Times and the Lon
don Times to prevent the New York
World and New York Sun from pub
fishing articles written by Rear Ad-
miral Peary after his return from the
north pole. In those cases the two
papers obtained from Peary exclusive
rights to publish the articles. but as
soon as editions of the London publ
cation appeared. correspondents OBJ
tanned them and cabled the story to
the United States. In both cases the
courts denied injunctions restraining
this practice.
Senator johnson argued that when
news is published in one part of the
country it is automatically released.
The bylaws of the Associated Press.
he continued. places certain limitations
upon news before it is printed. but
does not after publications. and assert
ed the injunctions against the Hearst
service destroy the tradition of at
least the country press if not of the
metropolitan newspapers.

But ! am concerned that the news

Senator Watson and New. OF Indiana.
and Sherman. Of Illinois, joined in the
criticism.
Senator Walsh. democrat. of Mon
tana suggested that news "rationing'
might be necessary In view OF the
number OF newspaper men at the con-
ference. "' +
I'm not so much complaining OF the
system OF .rationing." Senator Watson
replied. 'as l am about the man who

be parceled out by Mr.. Creel. And
warn the American people that II Mr.
Creel is to censure everything that

Senator Sherman said congress was
derelict In giving powers to the COM
mittec on public Information to
exercise censorship. He said that
while the cables were In private hands
messages to and from soldiers rela-
tivcs could be sent for 6 cents a word
but since the government has taken
