Are jfou , a candidate? o -o— _ A New York judge decided to do something about inflation. He assessed fines ranging from a pickel to a -quarter against a series of offenders brought in to face traffic and other • minor charges. Without question he succeeded in deflating the cost of coming to his court~at least. But what,of the offenders and their atJ titude toward justice, and the policemen who issued the summonses? Perhaps there was deflation of another sort, too, a kind which we don’t need.o -o With the exception of Dixieerata, the selection of Indiana’s Frank E.

Censorship:—• At Ohio State University the editors of the campus newspaper aie'convinced that freedom of the press is threatened in a recent order by the social board, which , is fespdnsible for conducting student social affairs. It has adopted a rule which bars reporters from its 'meetings unless the reporters agrte to submit the stories they w[jje to the social board for approval, before publication. Inaccuracies in previous stories which appeared in the student newspaper are cited as the reason for the|rttle. ' '!•'■ '■ ■ l * i Sjnce only students at the university are direcily concerned, it wodld be easy to pay little attention to the matter. But the issue involved is often encountered by newspapers and it deserves public notice. The board may have thought it had a good purpose in the; rule. But the rule is an attempt at censorship. A grasp of thej basic principles of freedom of the| press has prompted the student editors to protest against what they recognize as a method of suppressing news. Colleges should teach freedom, not suppression. There is an increasing tendency in to\ry to judge whit people shopld and should not know. ‘lt is found at "every level Os Its most recent manifestation is in executive tecurity order. Press censorship 4 is dangerous whether it occurs in "YVashington, on a university campus. or in the local town hall. i l i ’. V ,/ ;

CHURCHES First Methodist “Whgt are the signs of a good life,” of “How can you tell a Christian?” asked Dr. Benson last night in the service at the Methodist church. y The thought around which the sermon was built was taken from the second chapter of Philipplans,. “Let this mind be in you which was in Christ ,Jesus,”'or let as do Christian thinking fdr “As a man thinketh tn his Heart, so is he.” In answering hie question, Dr. Benson said the mark of a Christian primarily is his type of mind. “It ought to be an altitudinous mind, a high mind, for if one gets up high enough he cannot be disturbed by the division lines divide the races, nationalities and denominations. We need to gain altitude in our thinking, have the proper objectives, and develop the power to put it across. Like an aviator we do better if we get above \ the surface tensions, and l altitude gives greater expanse to i our horizons. ’ ■ I “Another mark of a Christian is J attitude. We need a mind of such attitude*, that it is flexible. While I we Cannot be so-parrow as toi think that only we. or only I particular faith kt right, we must; yet make up our minds and be, with our whole bejng what we are. I whether Jew, Catholic, Baptist, Methodist, or Presbyterian.” The third mark of a Christian mentioned was aptitudes.” God has given us the capacities for our skills. These help us to develop the power of our personality.” ' The girls’ choir of Huntington Methodist church brought special | music. Three songs were sung. “My God and 1,” “Beside Sjtilij and a special arrangement of “Softly and Tenderly.” Special music tonight will be brought by a double quartet from Berne. Dr. Benson’s eermon subject will be “What About Tomorrow?” .
