The president said he had com- plete reliance in the patriotism of American newspaper as a whole, but felt authority was necessary to - deal with isolated cases which might be detrimental to the national interest. The senate’s opposition to any form of censorship was made plain to the president by the conferees, Who ex- pressed doubt that the senate would consent to any censorship whatsoever but all agreed under the president’s earnest request to sound out and see if 1t 1s possible to pass a modified sec- tion. Until the president profected the weight of his information anew into the situation, it was supposed that congress ftself had given up all idea of an enforced censorship. Those who fought censorship on the floor of both houses pointed out that the administration still had oppor- tunity to exert pressure on the con- ference, GUARD URGED T0 TURN 0UT Members of Home Protective Organi- sations Requested to March 1in Parades on Memorial Day, Hartford, May 23.—All Hom Guard organisations in the state are encouraged to participate in the ser- vices in commemoration of Memorial Day, in their respective towns and are granted permission 'to parade under arms or without arms, a general order issued by the military emer- gency board today.

The boys were dressed up as knights of the road while the girls were dressed as narses. The juniors on the day were ‘perhaps’ next te the seniors for original “make-ups.” The boys made a good showing in their ‘white flannel trousers and red bow ties. The junior girls were more pa- triotic than the boys, wearing red, white and blue dresse: ‘The sopho- mores on their day showed desire to be of the farm the boys being *‘rigged” up as farmers. The girls .completed the combination by posing as milk- maids. PAYING THEIR TAXES EARLY. . —— Patriotic New Yorkers Furnish $18,500,000 to Uncle Sam.
