NEWS CHANNEL WIDE
OPEN, SAYS Mr.. cREE|

officers of the cable censorship Office
were disturbed last night over sug-
gestions that they were responsible
for giving to the country the fact
that the unofficial and false report
had passed through their hands from
abroad. What the censors did was to
report the fact to their superiors, and
it was allowed by high officials of the
government to become known in order
to explain that the government was
not responsible in any way for the
erroneous report.
George Creel, chairman Of the COM
mittee on public Information. issued
the following statement as the result
of widely circulated reports that the
cable censorship was holding up dis
patches which might confirm the false
announcement cabled that an armis-
tice had been signed:
ANY such report is absolutely un-
true. No dispatch bearing upon any
phase of the armistice negotiations
is being stopped or even halted in
the New York Office. The channel is
wide open"
