( AShcVilIe Citizen ]

Flow thoroughly has the myth of German efficiency been exploded, '' re- marked one Of Ashevilie's. leading cit iZens not long ago to the writer, ''vet for nearly three years the Huns haH the ~sro1e world blufpetl along this iine."
 And nothing is tlueF. Yet now. we feel convinced, the world wide belief in German efficiency and thorough ness Of detail was inspired largely by a carefully prepared German propa- ganda, a, form of education at which the Germans undou htedly excel. For instance, the woxld was awed by the heated recital Of the fact that every German soldier had & double row Of suspender buttons on his trousers, tsn6 that every private and officer car- ried two cases Of needles instead of one. Come to think Of it, any old woman emharking on a long Journey would do as mnch in the way OF needles and thread, and would not be given credit for any undue foresight. Then you will renaeu1 per how inspired writers told us that between very German toe on each German foot there was little wad of cotton to prevent chaffng on the march. How the world eawked and gaped What marvellous brains to harbor such fore- sight And, bless y>u. while the or dinary British Tommy carried two pairs of woo1en socks. the Hun car- red three--So how could he be de- fcated
 But when il came down to real Sighting to human endurance and to un~s~oring courage, what ayailed the Run's double TOW Of huttDns, his needles and his thread, his extra socks and the wads of cotton between his toes? Doubtless he withdrew the latter to make better speed when he tarted to run.

\ Victory for q Free Press.
(NeN York YimeS(

C.ongra tuIationS are due to the Santa Fe New Mexican and it's editor, F. Dana Johnson. for successful re- sistance to & menacing invasion of the freedom of newspaper publication. The supreme court Of New Mexico has just reversed & decision by which Dis triCt Judge Merritt C. Mechem found the paper in contempt and sentenced it's editor 10 c days in jail for pub fishing an account of something which he had done as q private individual. The New Mexican had been atta cklng q group of politicians to which the judge was alleged to belong. Judge Mechem made Q. statem ent in affid daEit form which prevented the disharnent of 2 lasN-yer a 1so connected with the political faction under attack, and claimed that the publication Of an ac- count Of this episode from the news papers point of view i'm paired his ability to administer justice in certain cases then pendimg.
 The danger to the rights of a free press lay in Judge Mec7em's extension of the scope of the notion of pende11cy, There was no case then before him
 in which his ability to administer jus tice might have been impaired by the publication of the article But sev- era1 months before indictn1 ents for criminal libel had been found on the ground of charges which were part of the same campaign against this poli- teal ia cti0n. These cases had not been tried; so far as could be seen, they never would be brought to trial: but the judges set them up as justifi- cation for Dunishing the editor for contempt. instead of taking his chances in a libel suit before some other judge, as any private citizen would have had to do,
 If this ruling had been allowed to stand. the mere fling of suits which could be eternal1y delayed would he sufficient to stop any newspaper at- tack on political corruption. No reY- erence to the general issues of the campaign could be made lest + preju- dice the course of justice in these ac- tfons The disn issa1 of the informa- ton for contempt by the supreme court. and the discharge Of the man whom Judge Mechem sent to jail, would appear to dispose of this very curious theory which would afford permanent protection 10 any oolitical faction which happened to send one of it's friends to the bench. And, with the observation that under our theory of eovc1nn7c cnt the right of freedom Of speech and Of the press are essen tial to public welfa re-" the court denies that q fudge may use his authority in contempt 10 redress his private grievances or soothe his wounded personal feelings
