RUSSIAN PAPERS PRINT OLD NEWS Satisfied With Items Several Days Late Moscow, May 6 (UP)—Speed is one thing which Soviet newspaper editors are not troubled about. The American and European idea of a newspaper is not understood in So- \'!et Russia. Compared to a Russian Journalist, a shepherd watching his flock is a dynamo of energy. It a Soviet newspaper can print a speech within four days of the time it is delivered, it is satisfied. News and newspapers are an absolute monopoly in the Soviet Union and the editors adopt and discard poli- cies with the simultaneous precision o ‘well-drilled infantry platoon. The idea seems to be that, as long as all the newspapers print the same news at the same time, it does not matter how long after the event the news {s published. Important speeches usually ap- pear in the press from three to five days late and are usually carried along from day to day like a serial story. Foreign news dispatches are alse often carried. When Secretary of State Kellogg told the United States senate about alleged bolshe- vik activities in Central America and Mexico, extracts of his address did not appear in the Soviet newspapers untjl five days later. The Soviet foreign office nceded almost a week in which to reply to his statements, by which time Secretary Kellogg's speech had almost been forgotten in the excitement of the next sensation. ‘The Russian newspapers are as obedient as they are slow.
