MP Claims New Frontier Bills ilocke u in IE comosiiy -Drive Real Issue of 'News Management' Claimed Fogged by Portion of Press Washington - RJPD - A top administration information of ficer charged today that "some of the press'' has raised a "great fog bank of cliches" which obscures the real issue in the dispute over alleged government "news manage ment. Assistant Secretary of State for Public Affairs Robert Manning said the basic prob lem was the "built-in-conflict" between the government's ne cessity to conduct some busi ness in private and the pub lic's "right and need" to know what is behind policy deci sions. In testimony prepared for the House Government Infor mation subcommittee. Man ning flatly rejected the idea that a government official might be justified in moments of crisis In lying to the press. He said that if the official couldn't tell the truth, he should "button his lip." Manning and Assistant De fense Secretary for Public Af fairs Arthur Sylvester were called before the subcommit tee headed by Rep. John E. flow of r.ews from their de partments during and after the Cuban missile crisis, but Sylvester has drawn most of the criticism. Manning said that "the obli gation of a government offi cial is to tel' the truth or, if security dictates, to "button his lip." He said he knew of no one "inside or outside gov ernment who disputes this." "I suppose many might ac- MR.

He added that in his view "falsehood is unneces sary." Built-in Conflict Manning said the "dilem ma" which sparked the news management dispute "might be more bluntly described as a built-in conflict between the easier way of conducting cer tain important governmental business or delicate diplo matic negotiations in privacy, and the right and need of the democratic public to know the facts and policies on which the national busi ness is being conducted." "Such a paradox exists, and it lies at the center of the questions before this com mittee today," he added. Must Use Flexibility Manning said it was diffi cult to offer "specific guide lines" to govern handling in formation "in periods of high crisis" but "certain set prin ciples" must be applied with "flexibility" in each case. He said: -"Foreign policy in the United States must be evolved by open public discussion of proposed policies, of the ob jectives of those policies and in most cases of the means to be used to attain those policies. . . " -"Once a policy has been publicly enunciated, those re sponsible for carrying out that policy may require certain interludes of privacy in which to get the job done. . ." -"Truth is an essential. Quite aside from the issue of morality, falsehood is unnec essary. . . " DO YOU KNOW THIS MAN? IF YOU DON'T . . .

The reporter had quoted Pope John as decrying the "manifestations of barbarism which sporting competitions can become." But the Vatican sources said the Pontiff made no mention of sports.
