u. s. Censorship
Probe Demanded

WASHINGTON. Nov. 27.-U.Pl
Senator Gerald p. Nye, Republican,
North Dakota, today proposed a
congressional investigation of GEN.
sorShip on the ground that recent
policy has been too harsh.
Nye said he was disturbed by re-
ports that British correspondents
in the United States had not been
permitted TO cable their newspapers
full accounts CT the Senate anti
poll tax filibuster, and that Brit
iSh and American cenSorS were re-
fuSing to pass criticism of war
leaders and policy in the two coun-
tries.
If we aren't careful, people
won't believe anything they read"
Nye said. There is no room for
censorship that gees as far as it
has been going. l like to feel I'm
privileged to read what the British,
Chinese and Russians are thinking
about us. An investigation is Of
ten the only way to clear things
up"

STORY HELD UP
II can't see" he said, how crit
icism in this country cf Prime
Minister Winston Churchill - such
as that expressed by Wendell l..
Willkie--should be censored by our
government at all.
One of the British correspond
ents in Washington recently COM
planned that his dispatch telling
of Wilkes criticism was held up
too long to be published the day
following.

DEPEND ON PUBLIC

He suggested that the inquiry
could be conducted by the Senate
military affairs foreign relations
or interstate commerce committees,
any one of which would have juris-
diction.
Asserting that it was impossible
ct lay down censorship policy by
legislation, Nyc SAID that only pub
lie opinion could prevent abuse of
the censorship power, and an in
vestieation would give the public
the facts.

Colonel Brinton Says BlackOut
Last Night In Key West Was
More Effective Than Formerly

Practice blackout and air raid
drill held last night from 9:23 to
9:55 o'clock was more effective
than a former blackout, accord
ing to Col. L. c. Brinton, direc-

that there was a number of ex-
amples of lack of cooperation,
primarily driving of private cars
and taxicabs. which, he said, con-
tinued to be driven with lights
burning and at better than nor
NAL, although required by regu-
lations to pull up to the curb. put
out their lights and take shell
ter.
Several business establish
mentS on Duval street and sew
eral schools made no effort to
blackout, although they were
aware of the blackout, said Colo
mel Brinton, who stated further
that a number of blackout cur
aims were not fully effective.
Instances of several narrow es,
capes by pedestrians who were
in the paths of unauthorized auto
mobiles were reported, but fort.
unately no one was struck.
The sheriff's department wa:
of the opinion that last night
blackout was the most successful
held SO far since no reports were
received at the office in the court
house of any infractions.
The warning signals were
somewhat better than formerly

not satisfactory.
