From now ON, it's going to be harder
and harder to move about the country.
When tire shortages and gasoline ration
ing in the east ended long trips by pri-
vate motor car, most people felt comfort
ably secure in the knowledge that the
railroads and the buses were still giving
good service There will continue to be
rail service, but it will not be the service
of old.
When the office of defense transporta-
tion froZe railway passenger schedules
as of September 26, it automatically abol-
ished special trains for sports events,
conventions, or what have you. Not only
will gatherings of that type be affected,
but the ban goes even farther. Extra
sections to regular trains are forbidden
unless such extras have been running
20 per cent of the time during the last
three months When a traveller finds
cars jammed to the vestibules, he cam
not count on another section being pro-
vided. The only important exemptions
concern trains required for federal pur-
poses or in time of public calamity or
military necessity.
Many Americans are going to become
accustomed to staying at home, which
appears to be what the government wants
them to do The faster war mobilization
progresses, the greater the need for train
service for fighting and producing units.
Civilians who must travel by train are
urged to make reservations for accOmoda-
tions early. On most Of the day coaches
they will be lucky if they are not forced

EXCESSIVE
CENSORSHIP
(Palo Alto Times)

(Palo Alto IlmeS)
Early in this war the American people
were given to understand on presidential
authority that they would be allowed to
know the factS-Whether good or bad
about the wars progress, and that the
only facts held back would be mforma-
ton which would aid the enemy if given
premature release. Such policy, If pur-
sued steadfastly, would be as reasonable
as could be expected.
But that policy is not being followed
steadfastly. The latest incident lllustrat-
ing deviation from that course was the
belated acknowledgment by the Depart
ment of War that not all of the heroes
who participated in the Doolittle raiding
expedition over Tokyo had returned as
had been inferred from the jubilant ma
ture of the official reports that gave
what news we had received about the eX-
pedition. The recent disclosure that eight
of the raiders were captured by the Japa-
nese came therefore with greater shock
because of the delay of the news release,
and, as a diSqueting cOncOmitant, causes
the public to wonder whether or not the
whole war situation is worse than has ap-
peared. Inasmuch as the Japanese were
the first to know that the eight Americans
had been captured, the laid to the enemy
argument can scarcely be raised as a de-
Tense for having kept the American pub
lie in ignorance.
If this incident were unique, it could
be forgiven more easily. But, unfortu-
nately, it is but one in a series of compar-
able Incidents, and there appear to have
been enough of them to have made this
sort of procedure a confirmed policy.
The recurrence of such incidents will
naturally tend to dilute confidence in all
official reports
