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."

For dessert they had fruit.

Paul McNutf
To Tour World
Washington, April 21. (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.
