Gently purchased the set of five tap
estries which for q decade past have

NEW YORK, Jan. 20-Kent
Cooper, executive director of the AS
ISOLATED Press, today urged the
United States to lead the world in
the free exchange of information
and said he hoped 1.-The President
himself will be it's chief advocate"
THE United States gave to the
world the ideal that news must be
undiluted and must flow freely with
out interference by Government, !"
Mr.. Cooper said. "If we can main
tain our own record in this regard
during the whole war we shall be,
more than ever, the one nation for
titled to champion full exchange of
news at the peace table"
Speaking over the Blue Network
during an intermission of the Met
ropolitan Opera victory rally, Mr..
Cooper said he believed our Govern
ment could profitably give evidence
of less distrust of it's people even in
war time"
I'VE are indeed having a taste of

he said. For one, I do not like so
much of it. But realization of how
1t works here in wartime-not in
peacetime-may serve its highest
purpose by giving us an idea of how
it works in other countries all the
time"
He said certain practices were be-
Ing employed here, under the guise
OF censorship, ito suppress, mini
mize or retard news of the war that
to the average American do not
make sense"
1T has occurred to me-" he said,
that the phrase military security
has too often been a cloak to hide
the bad guesses, or distrust of the
people, or weak reason for doubt
ing their national integrity.
AS result, when things 60 badly

less people find themselves blamed
fol not being excited about the news
of reverses that was unwarrantedly
