The WASHINGTON
BMERRY-GO-ROUND
By DREW PEARSON

WASHINGTON, March 25.-
Efficient Postmaster General Frank
Walker has got himself into a situ-
ation whereby certain zealots of
the church to which he belongs
have become unofficial censors :of
American magapines. And Prank
is playing into their hands.
The situation has gone so far
that scores of American maga-
zines, before going to press, send
their manuscripts to the repre-
sentative of Bishop John F. Noll,
of the Catholic National Organi-
zation for Decent Literature,
where they are examined.
The NODL office is at 1312 Mas-
sachusetts Ave., Washington, and
is under the supervision of William
Smith, who reports to Bishop N9ll
in Ft. Wayne, Ind. It has no con-
nection at all with the Government,
except as a volunteer adviser to
Frank Walker's Post Office Depart-
ment.
Through the powerful weapon of
removing magazines from the sec-
ond class nailing list, a most effec-
tive censorship is being used daily.
Undoubtedly some censorship of
magazines may be necessary. Cer-

tainly no one wants the U.S. mails,
which are subsidized by the Gov-
ernment, used for the distribution
of salacious literature. However.
the NODL has set itself up as the
unofficial censor.
Here is one report from William
Smith, head of the office in Wash-
ington, to his chief, Bishop Noll,
which shows how the system works:
"Your Excellency:
During the past week, Mr.
Selinka, Counsel for the Dell
Publishing Company, brought to
me a revised dummy of Modern
Romances magazine. Since they
made the changes which I sug-
gested I have already written to
your excellency, that this maga-
zine does not violate the code.
"Mr. William H. Fawcett, ac-
companied by the new editorial
director of their Confession mag-
azines, Mr. William H. Lingel,
called on me with the dummy of
Romantic Story. I carefully read
this dummy, made a few minor
changes in it, but had to object
to one.of the stories. Mr. Lingel
assured me that this story and

the others I objected to wotild
be changed...
"I talked to Mn Hassel, Coun-
sel in the Solicitor's office of the
Post Office Department. He told
that the following magazines had
been cited for hearings to show
cause why their second 'class
mailing privileges should not be
revoked. They are: Special De-
tective Cases, Romantic Story,
Crime Confession. I shall of
course attend these hearings.
"The Post Office Department
is apparently trying to avoid as
much publicity as possible with
regard to these hearings because
no news releases were sent out
naming the magazines or giving
the dates and times of the hear-
ings.
"Most respectfully yours,
William Smith."
Postmaster General Walker, when
questioned by the Washington
Merry-Go-Round, indignantly de-
nied that members of his own re-
ligious faith were influencing his
policy in barring magazines from
the mails.

around and around in the clouds, never once
coming down to the good, green earth.
They come to the conclusion that, the limita-
tion is right off the party line because the Com-
mies were in favor of it back in 1928, and maybe
still are. Or it is of the color red because it
means "equality of income," Which of, course it
does-for about 200 persons who would have to
scrimp through the rest of the war on a measly
$25,000 a year.
(As the Congressmen mouth "communism" a
man named Marx is laughing.)
In between airy waltzes, Congress says to the
people, "Now, if that man Roosevelt can limit
incomes to $25,000, he can do the same for
$2,500 or $250-and you wouldn't want that
to happen, would you?" And isn't that a nice
cloud right over there, Mr. Senator?
But the people have a discerning ear and
they hear another voice saying,, "Listen, mister,
you've heard about wage control? Well, yoU'e
getting a buck an hour now and that's all you'r'e
going to get.".
STRANGELY enough, the people have a way of
putting two and two. together and coming out
with four (which seldom happens, to a CoigresA-
man). In this case, the addition is apt to look
a little like Congress is in favor of limiting the
income of everybody except those 200 gentlemen
with the $25,000 and over. This kind of addition
can result in just one thing-demands for the
lifting of wage controls and farm price ceilings.
Even Congress should know that means in-
flation, which would be infinitely more danger-
ous to our system of government than any
income limitation this side of Saturn. Some-
times one wishes our Congressmen would spend
a little less time in the clouds and a little more
time on the important business of the day.

CAUSE OF YOUTH:
Internatiol ,Group Asks
Support in J ct.ry Drive
T ENLIST more youth in its drive for victory,
world solidarity,-ajnd the Four Freedoms,.the
International Youth Assembly; an organization
representing the youth of thirty United Nations,
is now staging a World Youth Week until March
28.
Its membership campaign is not the usual
plea for students to join a club or society. It
asks for no, contribution or weekly dues. It
requests merely your cooperation in a vital
task which interests each one of you, namely
to do all you can for victory and the peace
afterwards.
The youth of the occupied countries, France,
Poland, Norway, and all others, are opposing the
Axis with brave guerrilla fighting. The youth
of Russia, China, and Austria are struggling oft
the battlefields at the cost of their lives.. The
International Youth Assembly strives to relieve
the burden of these allies, who have already con-
tributed so much.
President Roosevelt has said, "The case of

TWERE IS only a certain probability that our
American free-enterprise system will survive
in any form.
So far, that system has failed to meet recur-
ring problems. Tremendous accumulations of
wealth lie in the hands of the Morgans and
Rockefellers; three or four monopolistic com-
panies dominate great industries-steel, tobacco,
chemicals, aluminum; and the whole economy,
at best, operates only within 80% of capacity.
We have two alternatives. We can repair our
limping system, or we can scrap it.'
I thought I'd find a debate like this-a clash
between advocates of controlled capitalism and
supporters of straight-out communism or social-
ism-in a radio contest to be staged April ,18
by the American Economic Foundation, On the
"Wake Up, America" program, four college de-
baters-the best of 226 entrants-will try to
answer the question, "Should American youth
supportthe'. re-establishment after the war of
copeitveenterprise as our-dominant, eco-
nomic system?"
'f we don't re-establish competition, we'll
have to go to socialism, communism, or some,
other system of government ownership. That's
myinterpretation of the contest, and it's the
one which first occurred to Professor Hance
of the Speech Department here.
lUT only 25% of the nation-wide contestants
, took it that way. The others considered the
debate to be* between laissez-faire capitalism
(the kind, they tell you in Ec 52, which exists
only in the textbooks) and controlled capitalism.
They had justification; the 'topic is worded
completely ambiguously.'
'So it seems very probable that the finals, on
April 18, won't be a clear-cut, smashing en-
counter 'between the two points 'of view which
will .have to fight it out 'in this couitry ater
the war. It will be, rather, a pretty foggy batch
of verbal generalities.
The eliminations on campus, held January 12,
were a good preview. Now don't get us wrong.
Four of the contestants are personal friends of
ourS. We've interviewed the judges-Professor
Hance, Dr. Secord and Mr. Ndrton, all of the
Speech Department, and they're all fair and
competent men.
But the Michigan contest, from our point
of 'iew, was a farce.
The winner, John Steward, made an excellent
speech for the affirmative. The others-headed
by -John Muehi, 'for 'the negAtive-were good.
But they all agreed with each other.' Every one
of them thought that the competitive system-
with regulations-should be kept. Ed. Podia-
shuk-advocating a "socialistic attitude"-was
the only possible exception.
ICHIGAN has been labeled a hotbed of
M . U !, t4 h
communism. But in this contest not one
whole-hearted admirer of the gussian exper -
ment came' forward to present his point of
view. That is a discredit to the campus. 'For
a real university, I think you'll agree, must
provide clashes of opinion, and must encour-
ge even" urorthodfx students to think for
themselves.
A radical speaker would have received a'fair

I'd Rather,.,,
Be Right
BySAMUEL GRAFTON
NEW YORK, March 25.- American isolation-
ists are curiously pleased with Mr. Churchill's
speech. The New York Daily News praises it.
Mr. Herbert Hoover and Mr. Hugh Gibson, who,
if not isolationists at the moment, take very ser-
iously their roles as the theoreticians of the right
wing in American foreign policy, endorse it.
Why the cheering? The reason is not far to
seek. Mr. Churchill's proposals for a "Council
of Europe" and a separate "Council of Asia,"
open the door for us to get out of the world. We
could, conceivably, be in both councils, or either,
or neither.
Messrs, Hoover and Gibson point out that there
is a third council, a kind of Council of the Ameri-
cans, in the Pan-American Union. That's us.
Mr. Churchill's plan is a plan for regional domi-
nance. Regional dominance is the cornerstone
of isolationist thinking.
There is nothing in Mr. Churchill's speech
to upset the American isolationist dream of
strong bonds with Canada and with Latin
America, a firm grip on outlying bases, and a
thumb to the nose against the rest of the world.
All of a sudden, of a Sunday afternoon, the
post-war world has begun to take form.
Messrs. Hoover and Gibson have sensitively
and quickly sized up the possibilities. There is
a bewildering variety of them. One is that,
theoretically, we may not have to enter into
formal agreement on the post-war world with
Russia at all. If there is a Council of Europe, we
can, theoretically, deal with Russia through the
Council's western department, England. Eng-
land can be the go-between. Mr. Churchill may
have decided to take our reluctance to enter into
long-term contractual relations with Russia at
face value, and decided to stop fooling himself,
her or us. The Council of Europe is the famous
three-column London Times editorial of March
10 reduced to three words.
The feeling is strong that, somehow, Mr. Chur-
chill has struck pay-dirt; he has found a way
to make a bid to American isolationist opinion
over, through, around and under American offi-
cial opinion.
Just as we can, obviously, stay out of the Coun-
eil of Europe, we can, conceivably, stay out of the
Council of Asia. We can be in neither and' yet
be a link between the two. If the world is too
much with us, if we want to get out of the orld,
a kind of opportunity to do so has been offered
to us. I have the feeling that Mi'. Churchill has
decided that the world has waited long enough
for the Republican Party to make up its mind.
He is prepared with an alternate conception,
in case we decide to check out of any world
organization. Apparently he does not intend to
have the whole planet hang breathlessly on
every word of another Senate debate.
It is too early to say whether all this is good,
bad or indifferent. All we can do so far is to
look at the thing. It is, as I say, of dazzling
complexity. For one, if you examine the
Council of Europe and the Council of Asia
closely, you will see that the membership of the
two will be curiously the same. The strongest
military powers on the Council of Europe will
be Russia and England. The strongest mili-
tary powers on the Council of Asia will be,
also, Russia and (through dominion and co-
