SENATOR’S CRITICISM
American Censorship PEARL HARBOUR. September 29.. Senator Henry O. Lodge, after a visit to the war fronts, said he will report to Congress that “our news censorship, as I saw it at the front, enrages and disillusions' our fighting men in the truthfulness of their leaders.” Senator* Lodge told the Associated Press: “I don’t know whom our rosy censorship helps, unless it is the enemy by making us underestimate him. I saw United States soldiers befriend Italian and German prisoners, but such camsraderie does hot exist in the Pacific, whore wo light the .laps to.a finish. “The Japs made it that way. torturing prisoners, shooting down .parachutists, and executing Brigadier General Doolittle's flyers'in cold blood. Our litter bearers are their favourite target. These truths should be driven home.”
