ABoUT CENSORSHIP

NOVSs SSs~OONOssss
Newspapers in the United Stotes
ore not censored. They must not be,
even should the emergency become
more critical.
We have the word of Lowell Mellet,
head of the Office of Government Re-
ports, that no censorship is contem-
plotted. We have the word Of George
Creel, who managed such motters dur
ing the World War, thot il doesn't work
anyway, even when Voluntary" Both
men ought to know whot they are tolk-
ing obout
There can be only two reasons for
censorship of newspapers. One is to
manipulate people at home. The other
is'to keep information Of military value
away from possible enemies abroad.
The first we don't want. The second is
the sphere in which to operate.
Free, democratic peoples can be
told the truth. II it is bad, so much the
more reason for telling them. They will
hold firm, even when it's bad. Britain
proves that.
Good sense indicates thot informo-
ton of militory value shall not be poss-
ed on to enemies or potential enemies.
Thot's the place for censorship. When
q piece Of information Of value to Po-
tentioI enemy becomes known, whot
happens? II is immediately passed on
to the country interested.
Now militory information is per-
ishobIe product, like fish. If not receiv-
ed in time, it's no good. Modern condi-
tons being what they ore, it can be os-
sumed thot no military secret con be
kept forever. If it is d oyed long
enough. however. thot is enough for
proctcol purposes.
Thus it may be seen that censorship
is opt to de- the one thing it should not
do; namely, becloud local opinion;
while falling to do the thing it ought to
do: namely, preventing the enemy or
potentiol enemy from getting the in
formation in time to do it any good.
Voluntary, censorship keeps little
news from getting abroad, especially
since the cobles abroad are uncensored.
Shortwove radio and the cobles! Those
are the points to choke off information
going obrood, not censorship Of Amer
icon newspapers. True. such restriction
is not oir-tieht. The news will sift
abroad sooner or later, but probably
too Iote to be of value.
Thot is the sort Of restriction
which Cree recommended, with his
World War experience With voluntary
censorship back of him. Thot is the sort
of censorship, together with proper re-
tcence at the source, which will do
what needs to be done.
For free Americans, full informo-
ton; for enemies or potential enemies.
nothing. Thot is the general framework
on which any arrangements for news
eoveroee in on emergency should be
worked out.

The Latest Books I

Critics are referring to Jesse
Stuart as the Sherwood Ander-
son of Kentucky, and bis latest
book, a collection Of nostalgia
tales of the hills, should rank
him with Americas leading por-
trayers of what many consider
the purest type Of American
the hillbilly.
In Stuart's MEN Of the Noun
tains" (Dutton: $2.50), you can
feel the corn brush across your

ular campaign, and Grandpa
Grayh o use who left all his
grandchildren 500 each, so they
could dress up in store clothes
and have a good time at his
funeral.
There's the story Of the Stur-
-Hillman feud, which, &C
cording to Pa Hillman, started
in 1918 "and we fit 'em with the
courts until 1928. Then the SUI

county and by the Bureau of Ami
NAL Industry of the U. S. Depart
ment of Agriculture. Work of the
county agricultural agents, the spe-
cialists of the Extension Service
and the U. S. Department of Agri-
culture dairy counsellors is d.
fected toward assisting farmers
with use of the facts revealed in
dairy herd improvement associa-
tlon records.
X. W. Baker, farm management
specialist for the Delaware Agri-
cultural Extension Service, says
that besides the individual cows
milk and butterfat production, the
records of the dairy herd improve
ment associations give the amount
of feed supplied each COW, they
check the production of offspring
with that of the dam as a method
of proving, bulls, and they show
which cows are unproductive. When
farmer-members of the associations
weed out these unproductive cows,
they save feed and care costs by
having the highest-producing,
money-making COWS in their herds.
Milford chronicle., 1941-03-28

Dairy farmers spend more than
q million dollars annually to get
accurate records ON their COWS
through the country's $1,000 dairy
herd improvement associations.
Today in Delaware, the milk
from more than 1900 cows is being
tested each month by three associ-
alton milk testers. There are a
total of Ga herds in the three Della
ware herd improvement associg
tions.
DairyInen having herds in the
associations pay the expenses of
the monthly testing, according to
the number of cows in their herds.
The milk tester visits each farm
herd once month. He weighs milk
from Individual cows and takes
samples of night and morning milk.
From these samples, the tester
finds the butterfat content of the
milk from each COW. His records
arc kept in book which is the
property of the farmer.

Chart for Happiness

Macmillin, New York. So. An au-
thor must have something to say
when he announces book under
this title. People want to be happy
but times like ours do not invite
happiness. DR.. Hart is not un-
aware of cruel facts that bear down
on life, and his counsel is not a
mere resignation to facts as they
are. Our program for happiness
must be one which can succeed
no rIatter what economic or inter-
national conditions we may have
to face" It is pointed out that we
must weave the patterns of our
personalities with creative har-
mony into the emerging patterns Of
the universe OF which we are
.partsi'' The importance of right
attitudes and methOds lis stressed.
The value of religion is not ignor-
ed. One chapter Is titled What
Can Religion Do For You?" The
author calls for creative co0pera-
ton and spiritual adventure. Ills
words carry authority for the vital
ministry OF religious education.
There is good and workable psy-
chology in this book for pastor,
student, and reader. For while DR..
Hart is a professor Of sociology at
Duke University, his writing style
brings his message to the average
home. It is good enough for the
scholar, and helpful TO those who
have not had the scholars advan-
tages and opportunities.

FOOD FOR THOUGHT
FOOD DEFENSE MONTH
March 10 to April IL
By CHARLOTTE SPENCER
NutEiti0nIst for the State Board Of Health

Uncle Sans farmers need help
Our foreign markets have beer
hard hit and we need increased
home purchases of our farm pro,
ducts. Food Defense Month, March
13 to April IL, has been declared
as a patriotic effort to help solve
this problem, so vital to our ma
tlonal security.
What are these surplus farm
products which we are asked to
use? The list includes healthful
fruits such as apples, pears, rails
ins, grapefruit, prunes, and Or
anges. There are also vitamin rich
vegetables such as carrots, kale,
onions and potatoes. Butter, eggs,
whole wheat flour and pork are
also in this list.
During Food Defense Month try
new ways. of using the farmers
surplus foods. Use raisins in rice
and bread puddings, in hot cereal,
in sandwiches and in bread rec
ipes.
Use carrots in many ways. Cab
Da6C an0 CpAAOb caAdAg CdlAOL anu
raisin sandwich mixture, raw car
rot strips are all ways to use this
healthful vegetable raw. Carrot
custard Is an unusual way for u.s.
ing left over mashed carrots.
Carrot Custard
3 eggs
tx cups mashed cooked carrots
3 cups milk
/ teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons melted butter
Beat the egg slightly, add the
carrots and other ingredients, pour
into a CREASED baking dish. Place
the baking dish in pan of hot
water and bake in a moderate oven
for about hour, or until the GUS
tard is set. Serve hot as a vege-
table.
If as Americans we ate the food
which we need, this surplus food |
problem would be solved. Most
Delaware diets would be improved
by the addition of these very foods
which are called surplus. We need
% use more fruits, more vege-
ables, more butter and more eggs.

cry man in his place, let no man
go out of his place on the seventh
day." See again Elk. 35:2, 8: "Six
days shall work be done, but on the
seventh day there shall be to you
an holy day, Mote Col. 2:16), a
Sabbath of rest to the Lord: who
soever doeth work therein shall be
put to death: Ye shall kindle no
fire throughout your habitations
upon the Sabbath Day." Yes, they
kept it just like that, but they kept
it under the yoke of bondage that
our Lord died to free us from.
So let's keep on keeping His day
in His own blessed way. They kept
the Sabbath according to the letter
only, and Paul says in II Cor. 3:6.
1.-THE letter killeth, but the spirit
giveth life." John said, when he was
on Patmos (Rev. 1;10) that he was
in the Spirit on the Lords Day. It's
our privilege too. Let us be in the
Spirit on the Lords Day.
