Thursday; April 21, 1938 The Capital Journal, Salem, Oregon Seven Free Press in U.S. Endangered Washington. April 31 WV-Alfred H. Kerchhofer, president of the Am erican Society of Newspaper Edit ors, asserted today that "the black plague" of newspaper censorship was spreading to the American con tinent. Klrchhofer, managing editor of the Buffalo (N.Y.) Evening News, open ed the society's annual convention by declaring It was the duty of this country's free press "to defend and Interpret free Institutions." "Today self-government is on trial." he said. "An Independent press can uphold It. "History shows that even the best of the politicians. Job-seekers and office-holding bureaucracy tend to become self-serving. If they aren't thinking of reflection or re-appoint-ment, they are thinking of their place In the sun. "It is the duty of the newspaper press to warn against such self aggrandizement. To do this requires a high degree of competence, intel ligence and experience in our edit ors and reporters."

I am glad you ' cared enough about us to remember some of our ways and about the different kinds of ears elephants have." "They can re nt e m be r about ears," sighed Willy Nllly, " they always have mine to look at "Your ears are fine," said the el ephant. "That's the spirit," cawed ChriS' topher. "I really should do something about them, though," said Willy Nllly. "I haven't the backbone of a worn-out rubber bone If I don't at tend to them this summer," "We've taken up your time," said the elephants, "but it has been fun being here." "We've had a wonderful time, said Willy NiUy. "It couldn't have been better. And, my elephant friend, I have great admiration for you. Let me get the supper and we'll sit on the veranda by candle light and I'll tell you what I think of you. I want my Puddle Muddlers to hear, too." Willy Nllly got the supper and he had a special meal of young twigs for the elephants. For dessert they had fruit. "I couldn't ask you inside very well." said Willy Nllly, as they sat outside .and now the little man had blown out the candles and their only light was given to them by the starry sky. "It's best to be in the dark while I tell all this." said Willy Nllly.

(U.O-High Commissioner Paul McNutt was re ported today to be planning a world tour and a report to President Roosevelt on conditions before re linquishing his Job In the Philip pines and undertaking a campaign for democratic presidential nomina tion in 140. From various sources friendly to McNutt there have been Intima tions that he would leave Manila about July 1 and travel as the rep resentative of Mr. Roosevelt. The president said at his press confer ence yesterday he did not know when McNutt would leave, but there was no reference to any survey. Stephen Early, one of Mr. Roose velt's secretaries, said later he knew nothing of the survey plan. Elsewhere It was said McNutt would visit Australia, New Zealand, Borneo and India, then go to Tur key and the Balkan countries and probably Include Austria and Spain In his Itinerary. On that schedule he would arrive In the United States in November. If he makes such a survey as Mr. Roosevelt's repre sentative the Journey is likely to be Interpreted as a friendly gesture from the White House and at least an Intimation that Mr. Roosevelt had not decided to use against Mc Nutt the veto power he expects to have In the 1940 democratic na tional convention. 60c Telephone 3571 Ton oan buy no greater pleasure foi two and one-third cento per d7 Express Specials Arriving Daily!!
