BANS NEWSPAPER ARTICLES

A judicial order without precedent"
in the State of Washington, and, so far
as we know, in any other state, was re-
Gently issued against newspaper pro-
hibiting it from publishing an article
which the plaintiff alleged would obstruct
justice.
1t seems that a construction company
working on housing project. was criti-
cized in series of articles that denounc-
ed the type of buildings being erected
The campany retaliated with a damage
suit against the newspaper and alleged
that the printing of articles, while it was
attempting to collect by suit from war
veteran tenant. constituted an obstruction
of justice and contempt of court.
The judge issued the restraining order
His exercise of judicial discretion implies
the right of judges, anywhere in the
land, to prohibit the publication of any
news articles which tend to affect the
thinking of readers in regard to any suit
in any court If this ruling is upheld, it
means that any individual, or corporation
when its activities are criticized by any
newspaper, can file a suit of some type
and secure an order restraining the news
paper from printing the facts.

CAN'T BUY UNLESS WE BUY

The unfortified border between the
United States and Canada has been held
up to the world as a demonstration of
what two friendly peoples can do in the
way of keeping peace. In fact relations
between the two countries have been so
friendly as to be almost informal when
compared with some of the technical
transactions which occur between foreign
nations.
This does not mean that there are no
questions between the two countries. As
a matter of fact, Lester B. Pearson, Ca
madam Secretary of State for External
Affairs, speaking in the United States,
recently pointed out that his country can
not indefinitely buy two billion dollars
worth of goods annually from the United
States when it sells only one billion dollars
worth. He gives friendly warning that
Canada may have to "put on retrictions"
and expresses the wish that the people of
the United States would become more
aware" of Canada before the restrictions
are needed
The observation of the Canadian Off
CioA Is timely 1t Is apparent W IHAHhHlS
citizens of the United States that our large
export trade balance makes difficult the
swap of goods between this country and
other nations. 1t should be obvious, from
the figures given by Mr.. Pearson, that Ca
NADIA will be compelled to place restric-
tions upon trade with this country unless
we are willing to buy larger volume of
goods from the Canadians.

COMMON SENSE

j. Howard McGrath, Attorney Cen
eral of the United States, reminded large
group of businessmen that "it is your daily
business to develop defend and protect
the credit system upon which much of the
commercial activity of our country is
based-because of the service which you
perform, honest men of moderate means
are able to purchase automobiles, house
hold appliances and other convenences
aud necessities which our free enterprise
produces in such abundanee-your efforts
create markets and enlarge and stabilize
. our. commerce. Without your service trade
would stagnate. inventories would accumu-
.-fate and so, production would be throttled,
and the free flow of our commerce would
s. be Obstructed"
The Attorney General referred to the
Sherman Antitrust Act which has long
been called the charter of freedom of
American business" He declared that this
Nations solemn declaration that American
enterprise shall be conducted by free and
independent businessmen constitutes an
act of deliberate choice, we have rejected
subservience to either an all-powerful
State or to private monopoies.
The speaker reminded his audience
that prominent among the liberties which
our antitrust laws guarantee is the liberty
to engage in the business of ones choice
And he reminded his listeners that this is
an inherent right of the individual Ameri-
can citizen as the corner stone of our in
dustrial progress and the foundation of
our political and social well-being--it
grows from roots reaching deep into our
National past

most of its equipment in the eager
hands of the Reds, which partly ac-
counts for their recent phenomenal

he can hold out there for an indefi-

An Epoch-Making
Battle of WV III
Three focal points are outstanding
in the late war: Stalingrad, where
the Wehrmacht met it's Waterloo, the
strait of Leyte, where the Japanese
main navy was destroyed, and the
Battle-of -Manchukuo, the most far
reaching of them ALL 1t was here
where the Qwantung army, the pride
of Japan and the headquarters of the
China-invading japanese armies, was
stationed.
A Military Masterpiece
Comparable only to some of Geng-
his Kahn's early exploits, the Soviets
declared war on Japan, August 9,
1915, invading Manchukuo from
three different quarters while hard
riding Outer Mongolians crossed
the Cobb Desert in a surprise at
tack, and on August 81, the conquest
of Manchukuo was complete. In just
twelve days the war was over, which
under conventional standards should
have taken months to accomplish. In
almost bloodless invasion, half
million prisoners were taken, includ-
ing some Russian White-guards in

Most Units Need Additional
Buildings and Equipment
"Our thought may be made clearer
by the simple statement that most
of the units of our university right
now are in need of additional build
ings and of additional equipment.
That need will never be met by a
spasmodic rough and tumble scram-
BILE. In so far as humanity possible,
these improvements may be made
only through careful planning over
a long period of years by one board
or body empowered not only to make
that plan, but, as well, to carry it
into execution"
The plan was made-in so far as
the legislature permitted it to be
the State Board of Educa-
ton. 1t was superseded, and now
we are in the midst of that trough
and tumble scramble. "Spasmodic,"
too-a good word. This is just the
first spasm; we may expect others.

they may involve any of the thous-
