Censorship of Foreign News


A review Of history of Is years ago
of Soviet government in Russia by
the correspondent of a New York
newspaper is a significant document.
1t reveals what happens to report
err in Red Russia and is proof of the
effectiveness of the censorship. It
gives a picture of the Communist
experiment which the Kremlin could
and, Of course, did approve.
This is the price paid for being
allowed to remain in Russia. It is a
price The Tribune, the London Times
and some other newspapers have re-
fused to pay. We have refused to
print doctored reports and preferred
to get such information as is avail
able in spite of censorship. The Rus
sian government has recently tried to
silence The Tribune's correspondent
at Riga and other correspondents at
that place who were telling too
much about conditions under the
Soviet. Correspondents who have
have been in Russia and insist upon
sending out frank reports have to
leave sooner or later, and usually
sooner. Those who remain yield to
discipline and give to their readers
only such matter as the Soviet rulers
are willing to let out. So far as
these correspondents are concerned
the censorship is more than sue
cess. Complete silence would be
sinister, but censored reports have
the appearance Of news and thus the
reporters became the agents of So
Wet publicity.
It Is our policy to refuse to CO.
operate with foreign governments at
the expense Of our readers. The Trib-
une will not submit to a system of
censorship, although it recognizes the
right to control publicity in danger
Gus crises. This has nothing to do,
however, with a continuing suppress
sion or control Of the publicity, and
wherever this Is imposed The Trib-
une prefers to take its men out. We
refuse. for the sake Of appearances
or merely to have what purports to
be news from foreign country in
our pages. to accept the responsibility
Tor helping any regime to give an
official portrait of itself. There are
good many governments in the
present disordered condition of the
world that cannot afford to have
their story told, but The Tribune pre-
fers to do its best to tell all It can
learn of them in spite of the censor
rather than exchange its freedom for
official tolerance. 4,

Ample Cause for Thanks

-
Rev. w. A. Water spoke with the
wisdom of the ages behind him Mon
day when he told members of the
Bismarck Lions Club that there is am
pie cause for Thanksgiving in the
United States this year.
Not everyone has the background
which this well-liked gentleman
brought to his discussion, but none of
any faith or creed will disagree with
the accuracy of his analysis.
When he said The Creator has pro-
vided us with plenty of everything
and to spare he merely put new face
upon a problem with which econo-
mists have been struggling these last
three years. Only We haven't given
The Creator much credit.
When he said that the need of the
nation and of the world is for a revi-
vified faith he merely emphasized a
point which many Of us have felt to
be true.
When he drew sharp contrast be-
tween our situation today and that Of
the Pilgrim Fathers on the first
Thanksgiving he gave us food for
thought and there can be only one
honest answer.
This is a world of contrasts but
nons is sharper than That which con-
fronts us TO-DAY. Want In world of
plenty: woe in a world better equipped
for the distribution of cheer and hap
piness than ever before. That is the
picture which Mr.. Water presented tc
the Lions.
The cure he suggested was more
of faith, more of confidence, more
trust in the lessons which He
taught us and greater allegiance to
the principles which He preached to
the world.
Are these true answers? The world
might at least try them and find out.
Most of the world has been prating
about them and giving them lip-serv-
ice these many years. What then
keeps us from putting them into prac-
tice? The answer to that question
would provide a solution of a great
many more problems than that pre-
sented by the worlds present dilemma.

What's the Answer

Those who blame current condi-
tons on industrial progress which
replaced men with machines will be
interested in knowing that leading
industrial concerns recently have
launched industrial modernization
programs which will entail the ex-
penditure of s7O,875 900.
One of the immediate purposes of
the expenditure is to provide en-
ployment for more men just now, but
the longtime effect will be to re-
duce operating costs, improve serv-
ices and, eventually, eliminate more
workers from industry.
Thus a movement which is label
led as one designed to end the cur
rent situation heads us toward its
perpetuation as soon as the things
for which this money is being spent
become available.
Ours is not the first experience
with the stagnating influences of ex-
banded industrial production with
out attendant adjustments in social
conditions.
When men in the steel industry
worked II hours day and improved
processes appeared, distress followed.
There just wasn't enough work to
keep the men occupied.
Then President Harding suggested
to the steel companies that an eight
hour day would be more appropriate.
The idea was adopted and this
change was one of the things which
brought us out of the brief business
slump of 1920.
Industry has provided it's own ini-
tiate and has supervised its own de-
velopment. Competition and the de-
sire to keep abreast of the times took
care Of that. The man with old
equipment and obsolete methods could
not get the business at profitable
price. The direct result was what
President Hoover called TECHNOLOGY
car' unemployment.
But no matter how high sounding
the name, the result is just the same.
The man who is "technologically"
unemployed is just as idle and finds
his situation just as difficult as any
other.
With our ability to produce large
quantities of both necessities and
luxuries it is obvious that we must
consume more if we are ever to strike
a balance. And men need time as
we'll as money to consume the prod
ucts of agriculture and of industry.
They must have these two things at
the same time.
The apparent need is to gear our
social advances to our industrial i'm
provementS. on the farm and in the
factory. When this has been proper
ly accomplished much of our trouble
will have vanished.
President Hoover tried to lead the
nation in this direction and failed.
There were too many handicaps at
the time for the effort to prove sue
cessful. The excuses of the boom
period had been too great to block
the progress of the holocaust.
But now the shake-down has been
completed. The time is ripe to try
again. and again. and again, for
the course of the human race in this
land of the free and home of the
brave should be continuously upward.
President-elect Roosevelt has shown
disposition to seek the badly need
ed social readjustments. Let us hope
that he tries and that he succeeds.

very pertinently remarks:
HAS he not read the election
returns? Is he not able to ana
lyze them, both in the presiden-
tial vote and in the repeal of the
enforcement acts in one state
after another? He ought at least
to be able to recognize what took
place in his own state of Idaho.
The senator is, of course. en-
titled to make magnificent ges-
ture and assert that, no matter
what the majority of the people
wish, he remains convinced of
the Righteousness of his own
opinion; but for him longer to
pretend that brute opposition by
him to repeal of the Eighteenth
Amendment is in accord with the
will of the American people is to
insult the general intelligence.
In other respects. 1t is desirable
that Senator Borah should wake
up to his own changed status
and prestige In this congress and
the next one. He will be, along
with the Republican party, sunk
from his former proud eminence.
It will not be long before he is
displaced as chairman Of the

Where in Connecticut is ''telc- phone density" the greatest? Not referring to mental density in the matter of telephone use, but to the number of telephones with respect to population. For the purpose of comparison, telephone companies throughout the world figure this on the basis of the number of telephones per 100 pop ulation and the Southern New England Telephone company's figures at the end of the first six months of 1892 reveal a surprising result.
 Telephone density is not great est, as might be expected, in one of the larger centers of popula- tion, but in the town of Milford (pspumtion 12,66O!
 Of the Twenty largest exchanges in the Southern New England system, Milford has more tele- phones per 100 population than any other. It's figure is 23.G, which, by the way, is higher than either Pittsburg or Montreal and only slightly below New York city.
 Milford's high telephone den- sity, company statisticians explain is somewhat accounted for by the fact that along, the towns portion of the Long Island sound shore front are many summer resorts which build up the number of tel ephones per 100 population con- siderably.
 Moving down the list just a fraction of one telephone, one learns that Hartford, Norwalk and New London are knotted in triple tie for second place, each with 23.2 per 100 persons. The Hartford exchange not only has the most telephones, but comes second in proportion to it's popu- lation.
