...spectre of government licensing and union censorship which it saw implied in NRA's insistence on elimination of these sections. At the Inland Daily Press Association convention in Chicago last week Publisher McCormick and Secretary Edward H. Harris of the American Newspaper Publishers' Association each pointed a fore boding finger at Germany's Press and at the cringing of U. S.

It makes four of these notes, separated by infinitesimal pauses, at each stroke of its bow. The cricket's stridor is a love song, produced only by the adult male. When the bemused female approaches he tones down his serenade...
