All rights of republication of all other matter herein are also reserved. The Press and the Courts Federal Judge Andrew Miller per- formed a service not only for the press but for the people when he pointed out Tuesday the duty of a Dewspaper in reporting a case at bar. ‘The theory that a newspaper's duty is to tell the news rather than to mold the opinions or influence the votes of its readers has been too fre- quently overlooked for the suggestion to go unheeded. ‘The newspaper is both s service ‘and @ commodity. It brings to the tye of its readers information con- cerning the events of the community tn which it circulates and important happenings in the rest of the world. If that information is biased, dis- torted or inaccurate it misserves its function. If it has opinions, based on infor- mation which comes to it, constitu- tional guaranties permit them to be expressed within reasonable limits but, as the judge so aptly pointed out, it has no right to attempt to influ- ence the course of @ trial in court and, if it does so, it may be held in contempt. In the stresses and strains of re- cent years the newspapers have, as a whole, done an excellent job of in- forming the nation. The average newspaper takes pride in telling the truth, is quick to correct any errors which may occur. That they do oc- cur, even in the best newspapers, is due to the human equation, for newspapers are operated by fallible human beings. But in recent years there have sprung up many propaganda sheets whose sole purpose is to serve cer- tain interests. Other newspapers, long established, have dedicated themselves to the dissemination of certain types of information. Thus we have in the nation new publica- tions which harp only on one string and old ones which run them close competition. ‘The best illustration is offered by the newspaper reaction to the hap- Penings of the last year in Washing- ton. Some newspapers carefully ro- frain from printing anything which does not reflect credit on the “New Deal.” To them, apparently, it rep- resents a sort of govermental perfec- tion and is subject to no just criti- cism. Others can see no good in it what- ever and have dedicated themselves to pointing out its weaknesses, con- ceding no good points, Neither course, obviously, is fair to the public which supports the news- Papers, for readers of such publica- tions are not given both sides of the picture. If there is conflict of opin- ion, the honest newspaper tells what it is and why. It neither shades nor distorts its news. It serves both its own interests and those of the public by telling the truth. ‘That, boiled down, is the injunc- ETE peqe s i af 7 7.20| into custody.

Parents might think of this when they neglect their duty in this re- spect. Tf a curfew law is adopted it should be accompanied by authority for the Police to pick up “stray” children after any given hour and an injunc- tion to make the parents come and get them after they have been taken at large, the offending parents will home in order to save themselves greater annoyance, More Sex Equality Almost unnoticed amid the press of more spectacular events, a Dill won the approval of congress this spring extending still further the equality of men and women in Amer- dean law. This bill removed all discrimination against women in the nationality laws. Heretofore an American man who was married to an alien woman, and who had children in some foreign country, could transmit his Ameri- can citizenship to those children; but an American woman married to an alien could not. This bill removes that limitation, and also straightens out one or two other little kinks in the laws to put women on an equal footing with men. Such changes became logical the moment we passed the equal suffrage amendment. That it took so long to get them through simply reflects the Power of inertia in such matters, for there was never any valid objection to them. That the changes have at last been made is a victory for democracy, Greece’s Lucky Escape The people of Greece don’t really know how lucky they are. If they read American newspapers, however, they may yet find out. Samuel Insull, home in spite of himself, recently revealed that he had laid careful plans to erect a gigantic power empire in Greece. He says that after a long study he became thoroughly convinced that “we could quickly make Greece the leading commercial and industrial country of the Near East”; and only his un- timely flight prevented him from put- ting his plans into execution. Mr. Insull once had a similarly Grandiose plan for the United States, and the place is still sore. Someone ought to explain to the descendants of Pericles and Demosthenes that this seems to be their lucky year. The Insull brand of industrial] disease.

The Menace of Planned : Economy (New York Herald Tribune) With his customary vigor of ex- Pression, Mr. Ogden L. Mills, speaking before the convention of Young Re. Publicans on Saturday, not only re- defined the split between the New Dealers, with their partiality for a Planned economy and the rest of us, who believe that such a planned economy inevitably leads to autoc- racy, but also cited chapter and verse from the writings of Brain Truster Tugwell, refuting that gentleman's recent attempts to depict himself as an old-fashioned American ‘‘Pory.” benefits of national planning and on the requisites for such plan- ning into effect, including supervision over the flow of capital into new ease germs. ction. If these ideals were merely text- book theories they might be passed over without notice. But, as Mr. Mills Many measures of the New Deal. Call it regimentation, planned economy, emergency legislation, or what you will, the basic fact is that it involves not only planning by the government but also the enforcement of those through what the New Dealers The point is not who originated or “put over” the idea of government regulation, or even whether, as the New Dealers contend in the case of the Bankhead bill for controlling cot- ton, the people whose activities are - PERSONAL HEALTH SERVICE Signed letters pertaining to personal health and hygiene, not to disease diagnosis, or treatment, will be answered by Dr. Brady if a stamped, self-addressed envelope is enclosed.
