Hull Again Hits Critics
OF State Departments S
African Procedure
Roosevelt on Ground
At Height Of Agitation,
Secretary Points Out

Secretary of State Hull struck
back sharply today at critics who
had assailed the State Department
for alleged failure to act in the
North African political situation at
the very time that President Roose-
welt and Prime Minister Churchill
were giving attention to that prob
lem on the scene.
The Secretary noted that the
Roosevelt-Churchill Today confer
ences began January ID, then re-
marked that much of the adverse
criticism directed at the State De-
partment occurred during the latter
part of the conference period.
Some critics, whom he referred to
as writing from up on Mount
Olympus, were asserting that we did
not have any one of sufficient stature
IN North Africa to handle the politi-
cal problems Mr.. Hull recalled.
Hold Majority MisIed.
Asked how he accounted for the
fact that the departments critics
were so ill-informed, Mr.. Hull said
that some of them did not want
information, though the majority no
doubt were misled.
He added that this instance should
demonstrate that persons who are
critical OF the State Departments
actions from time to time should
walt until they have the facts before
writing their assumptions.
He said the published criticism to
which he was referring was directed
IN substantial part at 1t. Gen.
Dwight D. Eisenhower, Allied com
mander in North Africa, and Robert
Murphy, the Presidents representa-
tive there, and by implication at Mr.
Roosevelt as well as the State De-
partment.
Asked specifically if the much
criticized appointment of Marcel
Peyrouton as Governor General of
Algiers had been approved by the
President and Mr.. Churchill in their
conferences, Mr. Hull said he be-
lieved newSpapermen could form
their own conclusions on the basis
Of the situation as it existed. The
Peyrouton appointment was an
nounced January 10. in the midst of

Evacuation Survey
To Be Made by State
In Arlington County
Study to Provide Doto
For PIons to Move
Residents in Emergency
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
RICHMOND, Jan. 27.-The State
Evacuation Authority decided today
to make a survey of the metro
politan area of Arlington County
and of reception facilities of IA ad-
jacent counties in addition to a sur
vey previously decided on for Tide
water Virginia.
The surveys are to be conducted
possibly with the aid Of the block
and neighborhood leaders of the ci-
villain defense forces. to obtain data
on which to formulate specific plans
for the possible evacuation of per-
sons from one area to another in the
event of an enemy attack.
The counties to be surveyed will
be selected later, Julian A. Brooks,
executive officer of the Evacuation
Authority, said.
Plans are we'll under way in the
State office, Mr.. Brooks said, for the
Statewide setup involving princi-
pally the departments of health.
education and public welfare. The
same pattern Of organization is to be
extended, under present plans, to the
localities
officials pointed out that it was
impossible to foresee at this time
whether continental United States
would ever experience sufficient en-
emy action to neceSsitate an evacu-
alton. The possibility of evacua-
tions ever being necessary still
seems remote, they said, but should
there be urgent cause for such &C
ton plans should be ready for i'm
mediate evacuation.
The discussions brought out the
point that a minor bombing attack
would not necessarily be the oc-
casion for an evacuation, and that
ordinarily mass evacuation would be
undertaken only on the advice of
military authorities.

Eisenhower ReIaxes
Censorship Of African
Political Dispatches
Previous DeIetions Made
To Aid Negotiations
Of De GuuIie and Giruud
ey the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press
ALLIED HEADQUARTERS IN
NORTH AFRICA, Jan. 27.-Lt. Gen.
Dwight D. Eisenhower relaxed CEN
sorship of political news from North
Africa today.
1t was stated officially that heavy
political censorship had been needed
10 date in order that negotiations
between the Fighting French leader,
Gen. Charles de Gaulle, and the
french commander in North Africa,
Gen. Henri Honore Giraud, not be
disrupted before they were started.
The new announcement laid down
this censorship policy:
Deletions will be made in articles
which % violate military security;
90 tend to promote disunity between
British and American forces; 90
overemphasiZe political persecution
of those who claim to be friends of
the Allies, and a. are inf1amma-
torily inaccurate.
Military Censorship Stands.
The new policy does not change
censorship Of purely military articles
IN any way.
The day the invasion started Gen
Eisenhower told correspondents that
they have the status of quasi men,
bers" of his staff to be told every
thing going on and only restricted
in sending it if censors decided it
helped the enemy.
This policy has been followed
throughout and military censorship
probably has been the lightest of
any theater in this war. The policy
has been SO free that in some cases
i has drawn reprimands from high
authorities in Washington and Lon
don.
During November and early De-
cember there was virtually a COM
plete stop" on political writing and
only gradually has the I'D been
lifted.
The situation at first was COM
plicated by divisions Of authority
among the civilian psychological
warfare department, the Allied staff
and the military Censors.
Censorship Centralized.
WnlIe mlIlIaTy cenSOrS OlO actual
censoring Of articles. psychological
warfare representatives from the
State Department, British Foreign
Office and the United States Office
of War Information told cenSorS
what could be passed and what
stopped.
Both censorship and psychological
warfare now are centralized under
one section, headed by a brigadler
general.
The only political restrictions re-
naming arise from reports on the
arrests made following the asSassi-
nation of Jean Darlan. Some of
those taken into custody claimed to
have helped Allied landings. but
most responsible authorities of the
Allied force said they never heard of

sioner for Africa, brought unity
among the French factions nearer.
He said he did not know as yet all
the details as to what was said or
occurred on the political side dur
ing the conferences at Casablanca.
adding that this Government will
continue to urge the closest unity
and teamwork and hope for its reai-
zation.
