ROUND TABLE MEN HEAR HUSTON TALK Censorship of the Press is Discussed hy Local Newspaper Man. ' rcONTlNTED FROM PAGE ONE.) l.ou Wallace's famous book. Hen Hur, was rejected by a score of publishers before it was finally printed ami found a ready market. "Certain novels because of the very nature of the plot will appear salacious to many. The New York society for the suppression of vice would not permit works which they deem immoral to be jxiblished. Injunctions were filed against the publishers of books containing salacious matter. Yet. it is my opinion that any mature person could read such novels and not be harmed in the lea.'Jt. Once an author is brough before the courts for writing indecent literature a blight is placed upon his geniup. Rights of Government. "Take Mark Twain's car-e for example. He was not subjected to trial for any w-ork of his. yet every article he wrote was subjected to a rigorous censorship. His wife was his censor. He was bound to compromise his works with principle. Such a censorship stunted the genius of what many rer.Jers think America's greatest tauthor. "The United Suites has and exercises the power to suppress any article created to overthrow the government. That is treason. But an article containing a criticism of the actions of governmental official, is merely exercising the freedom of the press. "We are given the impression that the pros,- is a definite, limited thint; ike the manufacture of automobiles. The pres is nothing definite, nothing concrete. It is nothing if it is not the visible manifestation of the right of the people to express Ihelr opinions. It is an intangible thing, yet If you attempt tr place statutory restrictions upon it it is a very tangible thing. It is not a vast assemblage of machinery presided over by men. It is not mine, and the men of my calling. It is yours, and your friends. It belongs to all the people of all the nation, and all j the nations of th world. The press is speech, and speech is the prc?s. "If we would censor our speech. then we would censor our lite-rature. America could never produce a Shakespeare, a Cervantes, or a Swift if censorship were permitted. It would stunt the growth of genius and Phould not be permitted," said Mr. Huston In conclusion. NOTRE DAME Several hundred .students witnessed the finals in the contests to determine the Notnj Lame repre.Hntativc3 In the Indiana Intercollegiate Debating league, which were held in Washington hall.
