John 5. Knight Attack!
Idea Of u. n. Agency
On Communications
BY the Assoeiofsd Press

PHILADELPHIA, April 16.-The
Poor Richard Club today presented
citation to John S. Knight for hi.
achievements as president of the
American Society of Newspaper Ed.
itors during the war years:
Mr.. knight, publisher of the
Knight Newspapers, told the lunch.
con meeting in an address of &C.
ceptance that the Leigh-White re-
port of the commission on freedom
of the press was an "ominous devel-
opment which threatens the liberties
of individual reporters and CORE
spondents.
The citation was "in recognition OF
his outstanding services to his coun.
try during World War II as liason
omcer in London between the United
States Office of Censorship and the
British Ministry Of Information" and
for "his foresight and determination
as president of the American So
ciety Of Newspaper Editors" in pro-
noting freedom of the press on an
international scale.
Fostered World Tour.
AS ASNE president, Mr.. Knight
foStered the world tour of three rep
resentatives to examine and report
on the relationship of the press and
government in foreign countries
The subsequent Leigh-White report
sponsored by the University of Chi
cago and Henry Luce, publisher of
Time, Life and Fortune, differed
sharply from that of the ASNE COM
mittee.
Mr.. Knight referred specifically to
the Leigh-White advocacy of a per-
manent international agency func-
tioning as an autonomous part of
the U. N. to deal with mass COM
munications.
Actually, Mr.. Knight said, that
means the creation of a supervisory
body which would attempt to pass
judgment upon the activities of our
press associations abroad and the
Stacking of correspondents, who, in
the eyes Of this international czar,
were filing dispatches that leopard
lied the peace of the world.
Attacks "Self Discipline" Code.
'The same hazard to freedom of
reporting is contained in the COM
missions suggestion that under the
ideal" set-up they have in mind,
all foreign correspondents would be
accredited to the U. N. under a code
Of self discipline in which violator
Of the code would be tried by his
fellow journalists ="
1T is the first time that any one
has ever suggested that reporter
should be under the thumb of his
competitors or the correspondents
of other nations who might have
reasons to be sympathetic to the
complaining nation ""'
Mr.. knight termed the Chicago
University reports praise Of British
and American governmental news
supply as another sinister note"
Mr.. Knight reiterated his conf
dence in the ASNE report on free
dom Of the press in foreign coun-
tries, made in 1914 by Wilbur For
rest. assistant editor of the New
York Herald Tribune; Ralph McGill,
editor of the Atlanta Constitution
and Carl Ackerman, dean of the Co.
lumbia University Graduate School
of Journalism.

Byrnes Won't Discus,
Action if Big 4 Fails
To Agree on Treaties

Secretary of State Byrnes today
refused to enter public speculation
about possible alternative actions Il
the Big Four foreign ministers fail
to agree in their meeting at Paris
April Is on the terms of peace
treaties for Italy, Romania, Hun
gary, Bulgaria and Finland.
Mr.. Byrnesy was asked at a press
conference about authoritative re-
ports over the week end that the
United states is considering going
ahead without Russia to attempt
to work out the peace treaties sep-
arately or jointly with other West
ern powers if current deadlocks with
the Soviet over some key issues
cannot be resolved.
He replied that he had requested
the meeting with the Soviet, British
and French foreign ministers in a
sincere hope that they could sgree
on peace treaties and that he did
not think he should discuss now
what might be done in event OF
failure to reach agreement.
No Message From Spain.
Touching on numerous other in
ternational problems Mr.. Byrnes
said:
He has received no communica-
ton from the Spanish government
in connection with press reports
from Madrid that Spain is inviting
friendly members of the United Ma
tions Security Council to send tech
nicians there to investigate Polands
charge that Spain is harboring Ger
man scientists.
While he does not believe there
should be undue haste about such
an important matter as Greek
plebiscite on the return of King
George, that is a matter for the
Greek government to determine. He
recalled that the allied mission
which observed the recent Greek
elections recommended that a new
census be taken and the voters reg
istration lists be completely revised
before a plebiscite.
Awaits Soviet Reply.
He has not yet received a reply
from the Soviet government to his
note several weeks ago concerning
stripping of industrial equipment
from Manchuria by the Red Army
and Russian proposals for joint op-
Grafton with the Chinese govern
ment of principal remaining indus
trial enterprises there
Meanwhile, the whole question of
Japanese reparations and disposition
of Japan's external assets is being
considered by the 11-nation Far
Eastern Commission, and he hopes
to receive a report soon from Gen.
George C.. Marshall on the current
situation in Manchuria.

developed for lack Of proper nursing
care.
This came to light last week in
the Gallinger justification of Is
more nurses requested for the pedi-
atrics division, in which DR.. Sweet
declared that of 146 infant deaths
last year, so or more were clearly
preventable," due to conditions that
developed after birth through lack
OF care.
Declarations in "A Report.
Senator OMahoney said DR.. Sweet
had failed in earlier periods to 60 tc
his superiors and impress them with
the situation, but that he now had
done this land for this he is to be
commended"
It also was brought out that DIR
Sweet in his annual report for the
fiscal year 1914 had made such
declarations and that this had been
submitted to the Gallinger super
intendent, who forwarded it to
Health Officer Ruhland. Chairman
O'Mahoney said DR.. Rutland ad-
mitted he had received the report
but had not noted the passage, OF
that it had not been specifically
called to his attention.
This passage included the state.
ment: THE increase in infant NOR.
tality Gin the pediatrics division) is
closely associated with the gross
numerical inadequacies in the nurs-
ing staff. Usually there is not more
than one graduate nurse, in addi-
tion to unframed help. in the
nursery to care for 30, 40 or more
patients.
$50 extremely delicate are these
infant patients that life depends
on expert and highly skilled care
1t is because of the lack OF such
care that these infants are dying.
Nursing Standards Given.
In support of the protests of DR.
Sweet that there has been made
quate care. he submitted a state
ment showing that according to
"standsrds" prematurely born in
fants should have 1876 minutes o1
nursing care per day, as against
247 minutes for the normal baby
Against this, he reported, the ped
iatrcs division was able to provide
only SO minutes per day for the pre-.
mature baby and IA minutes fol
the others.
The outlook for the employment
of additional nurses and other hos.
pital aides is becoming brighter a.
more of the Army and Navy nursing
corps are being demobilized.
DR.. Sweet submitted table show.

BY the Associated Prs,s

YOKOHAMA, April 16.-Capt.
