AMP Supports Esquire
In Mail Privilege Fight
By the Associated Press

By the Associated Press.
The American Newspaper Pub
fishers Association went to the sup
port of Esquire in a fight to reverse
Postmaster General Frank C. Wal
kers order withholding second-class
mailing privileges from the maga-
zine.
Contending the order interferes
with press freedom, the association
asked the District Court of Appeals
yesterday for permission to inter-
vene in Esquire's appeal from the
order.
Elisha Hanson, the associations
attorney, filed a brief asking the
court for a clarif1cation of the fun
damental issue in this case, namely,
the right of the Postmaster General
to exclude from the second-class
mailing privilege any publication
which in his opinion does not make
special contribution to the public
welfare"
The association, calling Mr.. Wal
ker's order arbitrary and unconsti-
tutional censorship, contended it is
not the province of the District
Court nor the Postmaster General
to establish standards permitting a
publication to use the second class
mailing privilege.
