BISMARCK DAILY TRIBUNE "PAR-REACHING Council r?] Defense Announces It Extends to Papers Oui- +" - side the State —_— MAY NEED MANY CENSORS Suggested That the Press Dis- patches Should Be Care- fully Edited Now In what is now popularly known as the “Tostevin resolutions,” «cause their adoption by the council o! de- fense followed an arraignment of the Mandan publisher following his pub- lication of an editorial allegation to the effect that Frazier’s 15,000 major- ity represented a pro-German vote, the defense board believes it has @ bludgeon which it can turn upon its newspaper enemies outside the sti as well as ‘on the press within North Dakota which has acquired the habit of.saying unpleasant things. Interviewed today, a legal advisor for the council of defense who pre- ferred to not have his name used, stated that the council’s recent order, directing newspapers, organizations and individuals to place a soft pedal on charges of pro-Germanism, dis- loyalty and sedition, undoubtedly would apply to newspapers published outside the state, but circulating in North. Dakota, as well as to those domiciled within the state. “How will you enforce your author- ity in.the case of Twin City newspa- pers, for instance?” the attorney was asked. “We will exclude their circulation from the state,” replied the atorney. May Be Hard to Work Out. How a solid barrier erected at the eastern frontier of North Dakota ainst newspapers and periodicals ‘which are obnoxious to the council of défense may be reconciled with the postal laws and with the regulations governing interstate commerce, the at- torniey was not prepared - to state. He was confident, however, that the coungil of defense can enforce its bun agains\t obnoxious news and editorial matter’ in publiciiions originating out- side thy state for circulation. within the staté in the same manner in which i ate\ has. placed the lid on liquor in outside iy Miyy Need Censors. “Whether .aiu official press censor is to:'be-appotntied could not he learned. THe logical th\ing to do, it was pointed duit, would be to have in each large center in North Dakota and in the Twin Cities )an official press censor to. whom printed copies of every néwspaper akid periodical must be sub- mitted: ‘beford they could be allowed to circulate. if the state. It was also suggested that press dispatches orig- inating in tie state for outside, con- sumption, or) outside of the state for domestic perusal, should be carefully censored in ‘the same manner, in order that nothing incompatible with the Tegulationsi-of the council of defense may find its way into or outside of the state. ,The censoring ot private mail matter; has not to date been given any considgration, it is witderstood, Zowing, Law Moy Ueip In the fase of periodicals of ua- tional ciyculation it has been sug- gested tivat the new postal zoning law, if it goés through, would enable the council of defense:to' maintain a cen- sor at the nearest zone center to whom copies of any magazine intended for circulation in this state would be sub- mitted before the periodicals would be introduced into the mail, With the censor’s official permit the magazines would come on. If. he found objec- tionable matter they would be re- jected and returned to the office of publication... Inasmuch as -foreign language papers have a large cir- culation in this state, it would be necessary to engage as censors men thoroughly conversant with the sev- eral alien tongues principally spoken and read in the state. , Twin City newspapers are much in- terested in the council of defense’s latest project, judging from the num- ber of queries as to the scope of the scheme which have been received here. They ;have been advised that the North Dakota council of defense’s egal counsel holds that the new rul- ings undoubtedly will apply to any matter affecting North Dakota pub- lished: in their columns. ITCHING BURNING ECZEMA SPREAD On'Little Girt, Got So Bad Could *, Not Rest‘at Night. Very Cross and Fretful, Trouble Lasted TwoMonths, One Cake Cutjcura Soap. and Box. rately te) Tet BY PAUL PURMAN. “Oh, it’s very simple when you once know how.” That's what George Polley, the “hu- man fly,” told me, after he had finish- ed climbing a 10-story building by hanging on to crevices in the bricks, window ledges, cornices and any other projection he could find. It looked very simple—just simple enought that [ thought I would rather take’ my chances in an airplane with two broken wings. ~° . “You see, I study every building before I climb it,” he went on. “I learn every crack that will give me a hold for my fingers, after that it is easy.” 1 Polley doesn’t climb every building. There must be a rough enough sur- face for him to gét the first joint of “IVS VERY SIMPLE,” SAYS HUMAN FLY OF. SCALING BRICK WALLS his forefinger ‘and middle finger he- tween the bricks and stones, but that is the only condition. “T suppose I'll get killed at it day,” he mused philosophically. I do it won't be my fault, it because there os a loose brick or de- fecive cornice which will break under my’ weight.” Polley says he has had two fails, both caused by faulty construction in the structures he was climbing. Polley is 21 and has been climbing buildings since he was 14. When he was a boy he had a mania for climb- ing around buildings and became so proficient that he took it up as a busi- me ness. Polley’s supreme effort was to climb 37 stories of the Woolworth building in New York.

At a religious meeting in Pennsyl- vania a youth asked the prayers of the pastor and people in order that he might become redhended. It seems that his hair was of a yellowish-white shade that was no color at all: He had heard the red heads were good scrap- pers, and he was praying the Lord to give him red hair so that he might go forth, to fight the katser, There's some@iing in this, too, and there’s an idea‘abroad that a régiment of auburn- haired Amazons could put a crimp in the Prussian quicker than a whole dl- vision of mere chocolate-haired men.
