Mac Counters
Proposal for
Censorship
WASHINGTON, Aug.
Gen. MacArthur's headquarters is
proposing that the terms of any
censorship Imposed in the Korean
war tone apply to sewsgathexfaf
in the United States as well, offi
cials here said today.
This counterproposal from the
Far East command came as the
Pentagon, backed by even higher
Washington officials, was urging
MacArthur's headquarters to put
into effect a censorship-for-mili-
tafy-securirjr.
So far as is known, no manda
tory order has gone forth from
Washington to the Tokyo and field
commands. Dispatches up to now
apparently have been couched in
terms of recommendations or sug
gestions. ;
However, the reported counter
proposal from MacArthur's head
quarters apparently is at variance
with thinking here. President Tru
man has been described as deeply
concerned about published and
broadcast information coming from
the Far East. . . . .

quarters, the top level view here
is about like this:
1. Instances of nubile disclosure
of tactical military information of
value to the enemy have occurred
in the Far East.
2. Information released here
generally has been within the
bounds of military security, al
though a new tightening . up was
announced yesterday by tne de
fense department "
Among other things, that an
nouncement forbade any. further
announcements by the armed for
ces of the destination of units
which have been alerted. (Since
the start Of the K6rean war, all
of the armed forces have announ
ced the general destination in dis
closing that divisions, smaller troop
units, air force outfits and navy
ships were being readied for over
seas service..) ..
Clamps Lid en Ships
It was disclosed today that Sec
retary of Defense Johnson had al
so issued another order forbidding
the armed forces to announce the
movements of naval Vessels, trans
ports and military - cargo ships
from the west or east coasts, eith
er before or after their departure
l ne pentagon wants tne r ar
East command to set up a defin
ite code which will make clear to
war correspondents what will and
what will not be possible aid to
the enemy in planning his daily
tactical operations. -
In this connection, some officials
here have expressed particular
concern over release of battlefront
information which they said iden
tified specific units, gave the exact
time of their landing in Korea and,
in other instances, forecast troop
movements and the routes that
would be taken.
Pentagon officials say they do
not blame the war correspondents,
but the failure to provide censor
ship guidance such as was estab
lished when American forces en
tered theaters of operations dur
ing World War II.
Moreover, these officials point
out that the military itself has
given out some information of pos
sible value to the enemy. .

Astronomer
Asks Reports
On Sky Object
EUGENE, Aug. 12 -(AV Dr. J.
Hugh Pruett, University of Oregon
extension astronomer, today asked
all observers of last night's bril
liant sky object to send him re
ports. He hopes to calculate
where it may have fallen to earth,
Pruett, west coast regional di
rector of the American Meteor so
ciety, , asked that the reports in
clude elevation, bearing and direc
tion of the object.
Astronomers agreed the object,
which cut across the sky in a
northwesterly direction between
Portland and Seattle, was either a
fireball or a large meteor.
Dr. Pruett said it must have
been a monster" to have been
sighted at such widely separated
points as Portland, Salem, Seattle,
Tacoma, Yakima, and several east
ern Oregon communities. -
He said the earth is now passing
through the stream of Perseid me
teors and these are commonly seen
at night. A fareball sometimes
occurs in the midst of a shower
of the smaller meteors, he said.
