 Both Moss and Snyder made their comments in speeches de- livered to the annual convention of the Associated Press Managing Editors Assn, which continues thru Saturday.
 Shortly before Moss and Shy der appeared, Frank Eyerly of the Des Moines Register and Trio une and president of the APME defined freedom of information as simply an assertion of the individuals right to know"
 Eyerly's definition came in the annual report to the president, a report largely concerned with re- strictions on information.
 You and r Eyerly told fellow editors, "know that there is a built-in propensity on the part of public officials, appointed or elected, at the level of the county or parish and ranging all the way up to Washington, to set up news barriers with the bland and some times arrogant assumption that a government servant knows better than the American people what is good for the people"

 Rep. Moss D-CaliD also said Robert Cutler, President Eisen- hower's adviser on national se- curity affairs, imposed a "blue- print of secrecy" on Americas $ 'missile-satellite deficiencies until Sputnik sailed across the skies. /"
 Moss, the chairman of a House subcommittee which rides herd on federal information practices, referred at one point to what he called 'public-be-damned infor- nation policies and said they must be eliminated.
 Moss views were sharply chai- lenged by the Pentagon's infor- nation chief, Asst. Defense Sec retary Murray Snyder, who said the congressman apparently sub scribes~ to the myth that, for some reason, your defense officials spend all their spare time knit ting paper curtains of secrecy
