A newspaper published the latter's pletare instead that of the former od got away with it. At least no one alled attention to the exchange. Rev.

Then he Canterbury, tries whose publicly owned power sy Z are so universally lauded by American ad- foul—of the private electric industry. The eral electric developments here are legally tax free (though, as in the case of TVA, they may pay small sums to states as a sort of sop for revenue lost through taking private property off the tax rolls) and in subsidies, and receive various privileges such as mail franking, at public expense. What this is that all ple in all the must help pay, through tion, ah aoe real or imagined, ac. cruing to the people in the limited terri- tories served. Municipal electric plants are also practically tax-free—on a national aver- age, their taxes amount to around one per cou. cent of their gross revenues, as compared with about 14 per cent for private com- Panies. And these plants, in the majority of cases, are publicly subsidized, and are given bookkeeping and other services by the town government—services which are Paid for by the general taxpayers. If these plants lose money, which is by no means uncommon, the general taxpayer must foot the bill. American advocates of government ownership have fought every proposal te place public plants on a fair taxation basis with private plants. They have set up so- called “yardsticks” which are false in every particular, and which give an utter- ly unfair-and untrue idea‘of actual condi- tions. The-American people—who have never shown any warmth toward social- ization of private enterprise—would have a great deal more faith in the sincerity }some of the questions which | are Dated June 4th, 1937. and honesty of these experimenters in socialism, if they would follow the sound example of Sweden, and see that public and private plants be taxed, regulated and Operated on an equitable competitive basis. NEWSPAPER MAN EXPELLED Without going into details, or giving |team are preparing for a more names, we call attentiqn to the recent ac- {| m™tresting game than they last tion of the National Press Club which ex- pelled a member for circulating “false and malicious information” regarding a fellow member. The member expelled is/ the editor of a prominent newspaper syndi- cate, who was charged with confidentially circulating a false statement im régard to the health of his fellow member, 8 hap- pened to b@ the President of the United States. There are serious questions in- volved in the action of the National Press Club, especially the implication of censor- ship which would be possible, if it used its power to expel maliciously. However, Most readers of newspapers, particularly the larger metropolitan journals, are con- scious of the need for some corrective board to sit in judgment on the conduct of newspaper writers. It is a great tempta- tion to a writer to secure and distribute an exclusive news story. Sometimes temptatioh overpowers the sense of cau- tion and dulls the spirit of fair play. The story, once broken over the wires, is scat- tered to the four winds and no amount of corrections and denials will recall « the yarn or cancel its effects. The Citizens opposed :teo*iny censor- ship which would prevent writers from freely expressing Opinions or stppress can- did discussion of public policies and men in public life. However, this does not mean that we approve unbridled license | for every writer to spray the air with his or her insinuations and suspicions. Surely the honest and competent journalists of! the nation should be able to devise a, procedure which will protect the import- } ant rights of the members and at the same | ‘time punish those whose careless and dis- | ewiddle bis fingers at the Archbishop| reputable activities bring disrepute to all | honest writers and thinkers. | bility, it is said, of his making a Geaaameccal at that time. i F.
