ing among all who have had rela- tions with the postofice department since the President took Mir. Burle- son out of the political discard to make him postmaster general. But the immediate cause of the concrete demand for his removal was the refusal of the telegraph officials to transmit message from the New York World offering to other news papers an article in which MT. Burleson was criticized. The World suffers not one cents worth of is IT,
 age from the zone system. It op- posed this reactionary measure, but with no great display of zeal, as a matter of public policy. Its opposi- tion to MT. Burleson as postmaster general was based upon the general complaint of mismanagement. Then suddenly, through the stupidity of the telegraph officials, it saw the true meaning of the whole policy of the department. If some jack-in- office, encouraged by the malevolence of a sore politician, has the right to sit in judgment on the opinions of newspapers and deny to publish CTS the use of the mails and the telegraph, then the end of the free dom of the press is clearly in sight The newspapers are making fight for elf-preservation. They did not think of the other acts of Burleson and his followers in Congress as aimed at them, although their Wash lngton correspondents could have told them how eagerly groups of politicians at the capital had seized on military necessity" as an excuse for withholding and suppressing news, for terrifying weak publishers with the implied threat of holding up their publications in the mails and for inaugurating a permanent system of supervision of the press by bureaucrats who hate and fear it. The harsh treatment of The Public, The Nation, and the Metropolitan Magazine, the adoption of the un- just postal taxation by zones, the abuse of the arbitrary powers con- ferred for war purposes, were not isolated occurrences, but part of general pattern of repression and control that eventually would have destroyed a franchise much more valuable to the newspapers than any asset they carry on their books. The World incident brought the news paper publishers to realization of the truth that they must fight not for the rights of others, which might not excite them, but actually for preservation. It was a lucky thing for the public that MT. Burle- sons officious understrappers sap- <, pressed the World telegram. For if the conspiracy at Washington had gone on unchecked, and its pur- poses had become imbedded in the laws and the practices of the depart ments, it would takes another Wilkes to dislodge it. And Wilkeses are

Nonstop Record
Nothing TO Fuss
Over, Says Air1nan
Capt. E. F. White, Who Flew
from Chicago Saturday
in Less Than Six Hours,
Talks Little of Exploit

OTIS nothing to make fuss over"
was the comment yesterday from Cap
tain (. +. White, the army fier who
established on Saturday the worlds
nonstop record fight from Chicago
to New York.
Captain White declined to look
on his record as an achievement in
aeronautics. Although he travelled
the distance three times as fast as an
express train. he SAID any Of the fiers
at McCook Field, Dayton, Ohio, would
have done the same as we'll as he.
A distinguished company of army,
navy and aeronautic authorities gave
the young airman an impromptu re-
ception at the Aero Club of America,
297 Madison Avenue. lie had won the
clubs Medal of Merit for record speed.
Captain White said:
Il had to deliver the De Haviland
plane to Boiling Field, near Washing
ton, and | thought | would fly it over
by way of New York, which would take
only a few hours more. | don't see what
burn Mail Field about $3.50 a. M,
went up 1900 feet and flew to New
York, arriving at Hazelton Field about
4:40 p. m. I'm going to take the ship
to Washington tomorrow and ride
back to Chicago in q train. That's all"
Speaking of the possibility for trans
atlantic flying, Captain White said sue
cess depended on the ability of the
plane to carry enough gasolene, and
the amount of gasolene required varies
with the resistance the plane would
meet in heavy winds. Captain White
has been flying only two years. He
trained at San Diego in 1917. He is
thirty years old, and was born in Min
neapolis. He has made several shorter
cross country flying records. On
March he flew from Dayton to New
York.
Neither the pilot Of the Shamrock
nor the navigator is the worse for the
adventure and neither man is dishenrt
encd. Describing Che accident, Major
Wood said:
Until we reached Holyhcad tho en-
gino had been running splondidly. |
took control, and, starting across the
Channel, we climbed to 5000 feet. We
were twelve miles out when tho engine
stopped suddenly, as though throttled
down. But found the throttle open
and, as the engine refused to restart
turned for shore and settled in the sea
half a mile from the shore. The ma
chine tipped its nose and for a moment
| was submerged. | was thrown out of
my seat, but Wylie did not go under
as he was in the back seat.
Meanwhile. Parker, in the accom-
panying airplane, seeing us in difficult
ties, landed in field and got assist
ance."
Manager Kemp added that the planes
had been damaged by their long sub
mergence, but the flight had proved
the speed of the machine was even bet
ter than had been expected.
