The Hearst service has also been under criticism for failure to co-operate with the govern ment. In the case just at hand the 'explanation of the A. P. offi- ciais is mat .iney it-iutu i grant the request of the war department's censor on the ground the publication of the news in question would do no harm. But who is the best judge on that point, the war department or the news ven der? If there is to be a con- ! f nniniAn oa in tViis in- so stance whose views should Unhesitatingly the East Ore gonian takes tke view that where troop movements are concerned newspapers and news agencies should scrupu- j louslv observe the suggestions of the government when se crecy is wanted. A seemingly innocent story may be exactly what the enemy is looking for. Obviously the war department officials are in better position to use disinterested judgment on such subjects than anyone else. One of the first requests made by our government of newspapers was that' no pub licity be given to troop train movements in the United States. It was a proper re quest because there are Ger- man spies and perhaps radicals ' i.f n li ,1 cfrina u'llA mloVit liltp ;to wreck such a train if a good i opportunity presented itself. ; The East Oregoniah has care 11 fully observed the govern- the ; merit's request on this subject, ! even when certain competi- tors did not do so. The view ' i-Vtia nanat a f V o f trnrA 1 fill T- inalism calls for such a line of ! action evert if at times it means sacrifice of interesting hews. j There is plenty of room for ag- ' gressive newspaper work with- iout getting on the borderland of treachery to the nation s m- ! terest in war time. What is itrue of individual newspapers 'is even more true of news gathering agencies. J I Russia is giving the world a j sample of a democracy with- ! out co-operation and co-ordi- nation of forces. The Ujjitea always states is old enough in self 4) ! government, to oe auie iu uu i better than Russia and the i press should show the way. NO CONGRESS CAN WIN A WAR CO-OPERATION NEEDED IS iW HE question as to the duty of the press in war time is again raised by the ac- QNGBES&may lose a war for the United States, but congress cannot win a war except as it aids the ex ecutive department of the gov ernment to make war effect ively. No wiser answer has been made to all the arguments against the concentration ot war power in the President's hands than the statement ol Senator Knox in behalf of the Priority Board Bill: Something has been said about the lodgment of power in the President. If there ever was any thing that demands the single arm it is the prose cution of a war. Divided counsels in war are al ways fatal, and no one saw that more clearly than the fathers of the Constitution and those who expounded it con tent peraneously. .The direction of war implies the direction of the common strength, and the power of directing and employing the com mon strength forms a usu al and essential part in the defintion of the executive authority. This applies to the food- control bill no less than to tht priority board bill. It applies to every other war measure as well, and is the final word in condemnation of the ride'r to the food bill which creates a committee on the conduct of the war to harass the Presi dent and his cabinet with con gressional politics and against which the President now so weightily protests in a letter to Congressman Lever. There is only one wray for a government constituted like the government of the United States to carry on war success fully. That is for congress to place in the hands of the Presi dent every power that is need ed for war put-poses and then hold him strictly accountable for the victorious exercise of that power. War cannot be waged on the town-meeting principle, as Russia is proving to the con sternation of all her allies. Nor can war powers safely be withheld on the theory, that they might be abused. Abuses may come, but they must be dealt with concretely and not as figments of the imagination. All this is as well known to representatives and senators as to anybody else, ihe cry of a "dictatorship" that is rais ed in congress whenever a war measure is under considera tion is invariably made from motives of deception. When a senator or a representative wishes to oppose a bill for rea sons that he is reluctant to make public he begins to de claim against a dictatorship. It was the pretended fear of a dictatorship that induced the senate to provide for three food directors in place of one, but the real reason was to crip ple the 'food administration and tie the hands of Herbert C. Hoover, whom the President has selected for the work. Si milarly, the proposed commit tee oii the conduct of the war s to restrain a dictators nip and insure efficiency; yet its real object is to play congres sional politics with the war and meddle with its prosecution.
