EDITOR URGED TO
QUIT owl BOARD
Roberts of Kansas City
Star Is Not Ready to
Do So

New York, July 9-CUP)-Dean
Carl w. Alderman of the Columbia
University Graduate School of Jour-
nalism, said today that he has urged
Roy w. Roberts, managing editor
of the Kansas City Star and presi-
dent of the American Society of
Newspaper Editors, to resign from
the advisory committee Of the
Office of War Information.
Roberts replied, Alderman said,
that he believed that "acting in an
advisory, not an administrative,
capacity should not circumscribe or
limit independence of action" and
indicating he would retain the post.
GAS trustee, the president of the
ASNE," Dean Alderman telegraphed
Roberts, should hmvold this office
above and beyond any possible in
fluence from any government tenn
porarily in office, or any political
party, or any pressure group inside
or outside of government which
may seek to use the press for prop
uganda purposes
Must Make Choice
THE propaganda interests OF any
government in war or peace he
continued, "are incompatible with
the complete freedom of news and
of opinion which editors should
maintain. The time will come when
you will have to make a choice be-
tween government propaganda and
the freedom of the news
Palmer Holt, Owl domestic di-
rector, named Roberts and eight
other prominent editors and pub
fishers as an Owl advisory commit
tee Tuesday.
In his reply, Roberts declared
that eff the time ever comes when
giving all possible to the war effort
is incompatible with the presidency
of the ASNE, then the God-given
right of every American to resign,
tell why and raise hell remains
IF the war isn't WOn," he said,
there won't be any free press or
independent journalism. That's our
first Job. The war will be won and
a free press maintained, but 1t won't
be by everyone locking himself up
in an ivory tower and refusing to
cooperate
Asserting that he had not agreed
with many Owl policies and had
not hesitated to say so, Roberts said
he did not expect to have his in
dependence circumvented by the ad-
visory post. He added
IF it does, the obvious thing to
do is to end such service with the
committee or terminate official po-
sition with the society. That l will
do should such a situation arise, but
1 will not prejudice any war effort
in advance as all bad
