defeated the people who tried to
take from him the control OF the
mountain school he established
down in Tennessee.
York, you know, captured several
hundred Germans and was called
our greatest World war hero. after
which he declined a fat vaudeville
offer when he was broke. which vas
more heroic than capturing the
whole German army.

Modern Communication

COMMUNICATION has kept
~ pace with transportation.
The Graf Zeppelin's fight is no
more remarkable than is the fact
that it can be followed so closely.
Reports of its progress are be-
ing published, or broadcast through
out the civilized world within the
space of moments.
Not only that, but they are be-
ing read, or listened to with sur
prising degree of intelligence.

NEW FISH FOOD

We have heard that birds catch and eat fish, but this week "a new story comes to us about a
 bird-eating fish. Dr. Carl Phet-
 teplace says he was fishing up
 the river near Jasper when he hooked large fat chub. Doctor says he always throws the chubs away, but this one interested him because he knew that the chubs eat roadside fry and the fish looked like he had a n eX- |(eptiOnal meal. Perhaps this is the reason or it maybe it was his interest in surgery that caus- him to perform an operation or
 the big club. The doctor says that among other things in the flsh's stomach was a small bird. This is food for thought as well
 as for fishes How do fish catch birds :" Springfield News.

ABUSE OF CONTEMPT POWER
From The America i Press

FTOTn lIG hEuGEICh I ICSS
 The sentencing of Louis Seltz- CT, editor, and Carlton Watson, chief editorial writer of the Cleveland Press, to jail by Judge Walthur because the Press cri- ticised editOrially an injunc- tiOn issued through Judge Wal l thurs court is SymptOmatic of 1 the contempt of power all over the country. The injunction criticised enjOined the Sheriff 1 Of Cuyahoga county from inter fering with the operation of the ISo-cancd contribution system" or betting If the same be not in violation of the laws of Ohio" Newton D. Bakers eloquent plea in behalf of MT. Seltzer and MT. Watson challenges the idea !that criticism of a judges ac- tions, when the matter is no longer before the court, is in contempt. His definition of the rights of criticism is worth the lat n tiOn of neWSpapermen
 Here it is: ''The rights of Am
 erican citizens are that they can ICriticize their public officers to ltEeir hearts content unless the lcriticism of a judge in the per |fcrmance of a judicial duty ltends to obstruct the proper performance of it."
 1 Wherever a judge with a thick Head and a thin hide sits upon
 the bench the contempt power is likely to be abused, particularly If the judge be one who bears This dignity as a tumblebug does This ball, finding it at times too much for him. It was gratify- ling to note that the newspapers Iof the country stanchly defend le,t the right of the Cleveland Press to criticise the injunction Unless it does fight for it's right Ito speak when it's criticism does Inot obstruct justice, the press Twill find it's freedom encroached Iupon continually by judges who Hear the criticism of an honest newspaper above all else. The Iabuse of the contempt power is las real a menace to freedom of 1.-the press as anything that eX- lists today.
 l We hope that MT. SeItzer and INT. Watson will not have to pay ithe price of thirty days in jail land a $500 fine in their fight for Ithe principle of justice. Their Iappeal will not be heard for lsome months yet. Tn any case,
 we congratulate them on doing Itheir duty as newspapermen.
