Roosevelt and Willkie see eye to

Roosevelt has become obsessed
with a desire for power. He
also believes that F. D. r. will.

Federal 'Snooping'
Growing, Hanson
Tells Advertising Men
All Three Functions
Of Press Essential
To People, He Asserts

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK. April 4.-Elisha
Hanson, counsel for the American
Newspaper Publishers Association,
today assailed what he termed
"snooping" by Federal agencies, and
said, "No man. woman or child who
lives In America is free from the
heavy and oppressive hand Of the
Government.
There is not a single activity of
life, whether Of business or of pleas
ure, In which the Government does
not play a part, and an increasing
part" he told the 35th anniversary
meeting of the Advertising Club Ct
New York In a prepared speech.
This hand is laid not only upon us,
but upon future generations yet un-
born. Each day it grows heavier
and more oppressive"
MIR. Hanson pointed out that the
function of the press Is to gather
and disseminate information which

news, editorial comment and adver-
tising.
Each form of this information, I"
he added, whether news, editorial
comment or advertising, is essential
to the welfare of the American peo-
pie and any attempt improperly to
restrict 1t should be a matter Of
concern to all people.
"Yet we are facing a deliberate
attempt by government to restrict
one of these vital forms Of infor-
nation, that which is conveyed
through advertising.
'The effort to regulate, control,
censor and restrict advertising is
but one phase of the seemingly prev
alent philosophy that an all-wise
and benevolent government should
regulate all human activity"
Mr.. Hanson commented that "here
