not tolerate the censorship rules of England. They want the facts. ; For the present at least, some of our constitutional rights will be preserved and safeguarded against encroachment. Congress should get the notion out of its head that the United States will tolerate hysterical legislation.

ton."

" So spoke Representative Townsend of Michi

gan in a speech against the censorship bill which

wa? debated in the hon.se last Friday.

Tne representative voiced the sentiments of

many a Hoosier who lately has been wondering

if the United States is to preserve the dignity of

a republic and its people the rights of free speech.

Why censor the press? Every editor in the

United States is patriot enough to refuse to pub

lish news that would help the enemy and every

one of them is patriot enougn to iignt to tne

last ditch against any attempt by official Wash-

Ungton to muzzle the right of free speech.

Every American has the right of petition and

ithe right of free speech. These are constitu

tional guarantees. Think of the audacity of some petty little official in Washington ordering a newspaper closed down because it had the courage to criticise him

Cor to tell the people of his mistakes and his er

rors ! That's what censorship of the press would do. i ' , The United States is not going into this war without letting the people know what is going on

iliehind the scenes. The neoDle of America will

Woung men W ith Stern Set Purpose

Enter Army After Careful Exams

Censoring the News Here's what the censorship clause of the espionage bill would do: Every line of war news and all reports about military conditions, conduct of government officials would pass through the hands of a censor. Suppose the United States sends an army to Europe. If the contingent should engage in battle and two-thirds of it be killed, no news of the catastrophe could be printed in any newspaper of the United States unless the censor permitted it. Or in other words, you fathers and mothers, you would be unable to learn whether your son was dead or alive if a censor decided that this news should be suppressed. Take another illustration. Suppose we have another corn-beef scandal, duplicating the Spanish-American outrage. Not a paper in the United States would dare to tell the public that more American boys were being killed by embalmed beef than by German bullets. Another example. Suppose officials at Washington are winking at poor material furnished by dishonest contractors for government use. Not a paper would dare expose the grafting. Keep in mind that this bill would forever muzzle the only medium you have of learning true conditions. Officials fear the newspapers because they know that they will quickly expose dishonesty and incompetency. An honest official need not fear the press. A capable officer need not fear publicity. The president of the United States must not be given the power of a Czar. If the censorship clause is left in the espionage bill, we will no longer have a president, but will have a monarch and a ruler. Remember that if the censorship clause were in effect today, we could not have written this editorial. Neither could you write a letter to the newspaper expressing your opposition to a policy of the administration.

THOUGHTS TO THINK ABOUT The best virtues show some signs of vice and vice versa. Sow evil seed, and gather a crop of mischief a serious harvest Working for the pay check, checks the increasing of your pay.

Contentment contains all wealth; it can be purchased by the giving up of unattainable desires.

Classified advertising possesses a force which can change your fortune. Use it to transform your business losses into business gains. '

SQUEAKS

From the editor's swivel chair

Just think of the many good things that pass Richmond by there was the Newcastle cyclone, snow that fell in Crawfordsville and other places and Gen. "Papa" Joffre.

Isn't it about time some hen laid an egg with "peace" embossed on it. Editors will soon cease to give space to that "W" stuff. The longer Carl Ackerman was in Germany the more devoutly he loved his own country. Probably the same would hold true of those who were German-Americans before the war knocked the hypen out.

When You Eat Bread you are entitled to everything in the whole wheat grain. Dr. Wiley says: "Wheat is a complete food containing all the elements necessary for human nutrition." But be sure you get the whole wheat in a digestible form. Shredded Wheat Biscuit is whole wheat made digestible by steam-cooking, shredding and baking the best process ever devised for preparing the whole wheat grain for the human stom- ' ach. Two or three of these crisp little loaves of baked whole wheat with milk and berries, make a delicious, nourishing meal. Made at Niagara Falls, N. Y.

C. of L. than has attended eome previous campaigns to swat the fly. Carelessness somewhere along the line made a headline read "Abandon Reception to Hero of Maine." Yes, we'll let the angels attend to that. But the hero of the Maine we still have with us.

Apparently the state board of education can't exist without the presence of a Wayne county man. At any rate it hasn't had to for the last twenty years. It's a shame conscription will take so many young men away from Richmond just at a time when we need them so badly to operate those new factories brought to the city by the $100,000 fund. Some time when you have business on the West side look under the Main street bridge at that bewitching and

alluring appeal for stray factories which may go wandering along the National road. And now lay aside your paper and wonder why in thunder you wasted three minutes reading Squeaks when there was nothing to them.
