Wor Scoop Irks Acme

New York, May 1O-UP)-Fred s. Ferguson, president of Acme News paper, Inc, yesterday called upon the Associated Press to state pulp licly Its official attitude on future top military secrets and other con- fidences.
 In an open telegram to Kent Cooper, of the AP, Ferguson said that unless such a statement was forthcoming Acme would propose dissolution of the news picture pool under which the American News Picture services combine their re- sources in the war zones.
 Otherwise, Ferguson told Cooper, Acme "could not share any respon- sibility for the action of any Asso- c!ated Press photographers in the war zone through the pool.'
 The text of Ferguson's wire to Cooper;
 "As president of Acme neWspic lures which shares with the Asso- ciated press Life magazine and h. ternational news photos the respon- abilities of civilian photographic coverage of the war fronts through the war picture pool I am greatly concerned over what the official att titude of the Associated Press is to be in connection with violation of confidence by one of it's correspon- dents. Hence this open telegram.
 It is inconceivable to me that you as one of the leaders in de- mamding freedom of the press in the conduct of international a f f rs would fail to also recognize to the fullest degree the responsibility of the press
 "As a correspondent at the front with the AEF in the last war and at the peace conference it was my good for5une to have a number of notable news beats but I never violated a confidence or ignored a pledge to obtain one of them. To my mind no beat is worth undermining the very foundation of honest journalism. Ii individual correspondents are to be permitted to decide for themselves on the spot whether they will or will not observe condolences then the entire journalistic structure that has bean so carefully built up for the coverage of national and interna- tional affairs is destroyed do not see how there con be further White House press conferences in Wash ington nor how members of the cab- inet or representatives Of any for eign government can speak freely before a press conference if an asso- ciated press man is in the room.
 Of immediate concern to me is the matter of picture coverage dur ing the remainder of the war. As you well know, our photographers are admitted to many top military secrets. Up to now l believe they have enjoyed the complete confi- dence of all army and navy auth critics in Washington and also of the commanders in the field.
 Tt would therefore be a reassur- ing measure if the Associated Press would publicly state what it's official attitude is to be in the future as to top military secrets and other con fidences. Unless such a statement is forth c oming Acme neWsplctures could not share any responsibility for the action of any Associated PreZ photographers in the war zone through the pool and l would then propose to the war and navy depart ments that the photographic pool be dissolved immediately and that each unit operate Independently hence forth

Thirty First Division Doughboys
drove five miles along Sayre
highway in mountainous North
Central Mindanao while another
veteran outfit, the Twenty Fourth
Division, was still locked in close
combat today with fanatical Japa-
nese trapped near Davao City.
The push north of captured
Maramag put the Thirty First
within eight miles of the Valencia
Air Fields and SIS miles from the
Fortieth Infantry Division. The
latter is driving south from Del
Monte along gravelled Sayre High
way. Between these two forces the
bulk of an estimated $4,000 enemy
troops on this second largest Philip
pine Island was preparing for a
last-ditch stand in wild hill coun-
Try of Bukidnon Province.
