London Newspapers
Welcome Press Probe
BY Labor Government
BY the Associated Press

LONDON, Mar. 27.-Appointment
of a royal commission to investigate
the operation and financial struc-
ture Of the British press was well
coined today by London news
papers.
Editorial comment on the IT.
member investigating commission
created yesterday by the House of
Commons ranged from a statement
by Lord Carose's conservative Daily
Telegraph that "the press has moth
ing to hide" to the Communist
Daily Workers assertion that "the
press today is menace to demo-
cratic methods of government.
The independent Times said. ut
is extremely difficult to see what
the government or Parliament can
do, without imposing unjustiflable
restraints on the free expression
of opinion to reverse in the press
the movement toward big business
and combination which is common
to most contemporary industries u
However, the Times added, "The
commissions report may expose and
remove many of the fallacious opin-
ions about the press which have
led to its own appointment, and If
there are useful remedies which
can be applied it may encourage
the press itself to apply them"
Lord Beaverbrook's Conservative
Daily Express, whose 100000 cir
culation is the largest of any British
daily newspaper, said "the probe is
needed"
when the project of the royal
commission was first put forward II
seemed to be smokescreen to cover
the defects of a government over
sensitive to criticism" the Express
editorial added.
"Since then the situation has
changed. Charges have been made
that the press of Great Britain fails
in its duties to the public; that its
powers and privileges, which should
be the very bastion of freedom of
speech, have been used to destroy
that freedom; that it manipulates
the news to further the private ends
Of proprietors and advertisers.

Building Costs
To Remain
High This Year

PHOENIX, Feb. 27-While there
are indications of construction costs
levelling off in the near future, not
much is expected in the way of a
decline this year, Edgar G. Hansen,
the Civilian Production AdminiStra-
tion's construction manager in Phoe-
nix, reported recently.
Hansen's observation was based
upon reports given at CPA Off
Gals conference in Los Angeles.
The conference was informed that
controls on non-housing construc-
ton may be expected to continue
indefinitely, or until the flow of
materials makes it possible to erect
non-essential projects without i'm

severest critics of the Republican
party He said the papers would
praise and criticise both Republicans

SCOUT CIRCUS
SET FOR MAY 9
Scouts In Area To Be
Invited To Perform
In Event
By Alley

AL troops of the Cape Fear area
Council Boy Scouts Of America
will be invited to participate in
the third annual Scout circus
scheduled to be presented at the
American Legion stadium, Friday
May 9, according to an announce
ment by George Tenuta. general
chairman of the event.
The circus, one of the highlights
in the local Scout program, will
be sponsored by the Junior Cham
Der of Commerce which conducted
the show last year.
The outstanding purpose of the
annual iamboree is to stimulate
interest in scouting, both among
the Scouts themselves and among
the general public as well. Too,
the circus has proved to be a
thrilling method of developing
good will in the community both
with the adults and the boys.
A good circus is not only a strong
prestige builder for scouting, but
scouting increases in attractive
ness to the Scouts themselves
through this medium, he said.
This year, the circus program
will be deveiated somewhat from
past performances, concentrating
more on a circus with definite
acts rather than On competitive
events.
A list of acts in the circus will
be sent to all scoutmasters in this
area in order that each troop may
select which acts it desires to par.
ticipate in, with a second choice
being indicated.
This list of acts. names OF
Scouts in the circus, and other de-
tails will be announced later, he
said.
