AP CENSORSHIP UP TO HANSON AYOR HANSON is in a position to see thru what he starts,” declared Acting Mayor Lane the other day in. ‘ reference to the demand that Chief Warren’s cop censorship of the Equity Press be removed. Very well, then. Acting Mayor Lane having refused to be what he terms “the goat,” it is up to Mayor Hanson, who arrived home today, to immedi- ely put cop censorship out of business. And this applies to public meetings as well as to print shops. The police have no right to break up meetings OF printing forms simply because something may be said that displeases them. If sedition is preached or printed, there is a legal and orderly method of the offenders. It is up to the mayor to understand, and to make his chief understand, that this is America; that neither a chief nor a cop ‘nor or can be prosecutor, judge and jury combined. If Chief Warren has been censoring the Equity Press and public meetings because of Mayor Han- ’s direction, then it will be one thing Mayor Hanson has started that he cannot “see thru”—that he cannot finish. Cop censorship is doomed because a Prusso-Bolshevik institution. It is NOT American. TT ods and it is not for lawless action. ‘ op censorship is lawless, anarchistic, Bolshevistic. It has got to go, Mayor Hanson. ‘Tides “BaTURDAT ! SONDAY wed Wish 06 pom, 12 NO 86. in Seattle 7 tt.
