CURFEW Law
AIMED AT
PARENTS ALSO

A new curfew ordinance FOL
Seattle youngsters. placing a ma
jor share of the burden for com
pliance on parents, will be placed
before the City Council for con
sideration soon, Mayor william
F. Devin said today after a two
hour meeting of his 'curfew com
mittee."
The ordinance. based on a
model" curfew ordinance pre-
pared by the state and recon-
mended for acceptance by cities,
provides that children under Is
years old must be of the streets
and away from public places af-
ter the designated curfew hour,
probably 10 o'clock, Mayor Devin
said.
Parents Face Arrest
This new ordinance also pro-
vides that parents who willingly
or negligently permit their child
rem to violate this curfew law are
liable to arrest and punishment"
the mayor said, II believe this is
one OF It's most important points"
The model-curfew regulation, IL
approved, would supercede the
curfew law which requires young
sters under 16 to be off the
streets by 10 O'Clock.
Another provision of the pro-
posed regulation would prohibit
between the ages of Is
and Is gathering or lettering on
the streets after the curfew hour.
The committee recommended
that the City Council pass the
model ordinance.
The meeting of the committee
was called as an outgrowth of
the mayor said he had
received that children remain in
theatres after the curfew hour.
Theatres to Help
representatives of the theatre
owners attended and pledged
their support and cooperation in
the enforcement of the new ordin-
ance when 1t is passed, Devin
said. He explained that they had
agreed either to refuse to sell
tickets to youngsters after an
hour which would not permit
them to see full show by 10
o'clock, or to admit the young
sters with the understanding they
would leave the theatre at the
,urfew hour.

lee includes the Seattle Schools,

The Moscou Conference

Washington correspondents for the
press associations and some of the
country's metropolitan dailies as
well as the network broadcasters
lived on needles and pins for more
than day and a half before the
news of the agreements reached at
Moscow were released.
There have been many bad leak
ages in advance Of important inter-
national events recently. The state
department, the Office of War In
formation and the Office of Censor
ship have done their best to protect
American newspapers and radio
against these violations of prema-
ture release of important stories
involving foreign countries. The
leaks usually have come through
foreign officials who whisper a
few hints to some of their news
men friends. They also sometimes
occur when news dispatches, radioed
in advance for later release, are
picked up by the enemy or are d.
vulged in neutral countries.
Every effort was made to prevent
such leaks in connection with the
Moscow conference. The question
of safety of the lives of British and
American negotiators was involved.
1t was feared that ii the fact that
the conference was over was pub
lcly revealed, the enemy might be
on the watch to shoot down the
planes carrying Secretary of State
Hull and British Foreign Minister
Eden and their parties.
Some of us who were affected,
learned on the Saturday before the
Monday of their official release that
copies Of the agreements had
reached the state department earli-
er. We had guessed as much since
the President commented on the
success of the agreement the day
before in his, press and radio con-
ference. We. were. told we would
receive copies as far in advance as
possible which meant that someone
representing the various news agen-
cies and networks had to be on duty
day and night. Finally, the word
came Monday morning that the mes
-sages were available and they were
given out at ten o'clock for release
at one o'clock. We, therefore, had
three hours in which to digest the
five separate documents.
Fortunately for me, the one
o'clock release made it possible for
me to report the story minute and
10 seconds after it was given out on
my one o'clock network broadcast.

Concerning American Stake In Foreign

Neius Analyst and Commentator.

affected by the war. Also there Is
the question of claims for damage
to American property
There are more than 100 people in
the state department alone who are
now working on postwar plans. One
OF the most important phases of this
work is the reopening of trade with
the war areas as well as the rest of
the world. OF course, the terms UNI
der which the trade is reopened may
depend on the industrial possibilities
OF the various areas; and how soon
the controls of foreign exchange can
be dropped will depend, in a large
part, on the extent of the U. S. and
other foreign holdings of the obliga-
tons ofthe country in question. All
this will affect our exporters here
as well as American interests in
foreign countries.
The treasury department, as you
know, has drawn up the White plan
for international stabilization; the
British government has the Keynes
plan.
None of these projects, treasury
officials said to me, which vitality at
feet the postwar movements of trade
and capital, can be intelligibly
planned and certainly cannot be put
into effect without adequate knowl-
edge Of the value and type OF United
States interests and the number and
character of the persons having
those interests.
Many other important business
negotiations such as private loans
to foreign countries, direct invest
ments by American corporations,
furthering the good neighbor policy,
will be affected by the informa-
ton in the governments hands. For
instance, if the government can say
definitely that in certain area there
is very little capital invested in a
certain type of enterprise and it is
known such an enterprise might be
enlarged there, the government
might be able to encourage COM
panies with foreign experience to
develop such an enterprise.
