AP Declares Government

NEW YORK, Oct. 27-(UP) -
In answer to the federal govern

ed Press today denied that 1t is
a monopoly and argued that gov
ernment victory in the suit would
abridge the freedom of the press.
The 7,000-word answer was filed
in the federal court for the south
ern district of New York where
the department of justice on Aug.
90 began a civil action against the
news service and its board of di-
rectors, charging that the APPS by
laws, limiting its membership, were
illegal.
ZAP has never monopoli2ed or
attempted to monopolize the col
lection or distribution of news"
the answer said. The sources of
news are as freely open TO anyone
or everyone who may desire ac-
cess to them as they are to the
AP."
CHARGES DENIED
The answer was devoted l9rgelv
tn denials of the governments al
legations. 1t cited statement
made in 1915 by the attorney gem
eral of the United States that it is

for newspapers to form an associ-

they all want a chance at the emo
