LXXXIV, No, 46 Ann Arbor, Michigan-Sunday, October 28, 1973 Ten rena mm 0~.. , Ten Cent'z I...~',.JI It I t..JLJ~Z New More paper blues Due to a further deterioration in the newsprint situa- tion, we have been forced to make further cutbacks in the size of The Daily. Our major papei supplier remains strike-bound with no hope of settlement in the near fu- ture. Another major paper company has resumed operations and a trickle of paper-some of which may become available to us - has begun to flow out of Canada. In the meantime, in order to make our present stores of 'paper last until more is available, we have been forced reluctantly into further economizing meas- ures. You may have noticed that several days a week we are combining the Editorial nad Arts sections of the paper on one Editorial/Arts Page. Further, it has become necessary to make reductions in the size of the Sunday Magazine. These cutbacks have become necessary in or- der to insure continued publication. We hope you will bear with us. Branzburg speaks out Controversial Detroit Free Press reporter Paul Branz- burg, speaking in Lansing before the Women's Press ,Club, called for legislation of an "absolute statute" to protect newsmen and their sources, Branzburg, formerly a reporter for the Louisville Courier-Journal, was hauled up before a grand jury in 1969 for refusinig to reveal his soui'ces on a story he wrote about a hashish factory. In June, 1972, the Supreme Court upheld a contempt of court citation the grand 'jury gave Branzburg, in a cru- cial decision which held that the First Amendment does not fully protect newsmen's sources. "As soon as you throw a wall up between the press and its sources you infringe upon the rights of the press," Branzburg com- mented. "It's like throwing a monkey wrench into a news- paper room."

Ms. Ernest Rivers - a resident clerk of the U.S. Court in Paducah, Ky. - resigned yesterday after three federal judges asked that she quit because of letters she wrote to newspapers contrasting penalties imposed on a young shoplifter and Spiro Agnew. In letters to the Paducah Sun-Democrat and the Louisville Courrier-Jour- nal, Rivers noted that an 18-year-old girl had been given a 30-day sentence and fined $200 for attempting to steal a $1.99 bottle of hair lightener and commented: "I .ang appalled . . . to think that a sentence of this kind could be imposed upon a young girl when at the same time a man who was elected to the second highest office in the country gets away with bribery and extortion." Chief Judge James G ordon said he ,asked Rivers to quit because her letters were "a reflection on the inte- grity of the federal judiciary."
