Hot Informing People
WASHINGTON (UPH - Sen.
Wayne Morse, D-Ore., charged
Sunday that the American press
is failing to give the American
people objective reporting on
major issues. '
"Frequently the American
press docs a Pravda job on the
American people," he said in a
television interview i Metropoli
tan Broadcasting "opinion in
the Capitol").
"It feeds them what it wants
them to read and omits telling
them what they ought to know
is in the news."
Morse issued his criticism
when asked about an incident
last week in which lie protested
about ton much noise in the Sen.
ate press gallery.
"But that's insignificant," the
senator went on. "I do have a
great disappointment in the
American press as a whole, (or

press does not do, by and large,
an objective job of publishing
the news."
He said he blamed editors
more than reporters.
"I'd take my chances even
though I've had my difficulties
with the working press, in the
objectivity of the working
press,"' the senator said. "But
the fact is that their stories are
re-written at a higher level or
they're cut out entirely at high
er level."
Morse said thai during the re
cent Senate debate on foreign
aid, he and others like Sen. Er

made speeches criticizing the
program hut "you pick up the
press and find not a single ref

"You'll find in that ame pa

the press owes to the American
people objective reporting on
major issues."
Morse said that the situation
has become "steadily worse in
my judgment, steadily worse."
"I've had even representatives
of the great wire services come
to me and tell me how sorry
they were that a story they had
sent in on some issue that I had
raised in the Senate was cut
out, but they even in some in
stance showed me the story
they sent in; hut it was cut out
at the upper desk." he said.

He said if the rates for each
city were based on that city's
fire loss alone, a major fire
could force insurance rates up
so high nobody could afford in
surance. He denied that the board of
underwriters, which grades
Portland, Eugene and Salem, or
the Oregon Rating Bureau,

cities were arbitrary in their
