Show oo GERMANS AND THE VAR NEWS (New York Times). The most intelligible complaint of tho German sympathizers in this country is that our newspapers print too much war news obtained from English and French sources. It is beyond argument that nothing more is printed than the situation demands. Vt the German military government absolutely refuses to permit newspaper newspa-per correspondents the frc-edom of their calling within its lines, there is no ether source of information acces sible. The reports of English correspondents, corre-spondents, all of which are submitted tt the- cable censors before we re-cjic re-cjic them, are Invariably credited to the sources from which they are derived de-rived The curt official reports from the German authorities are printed dally as conspicuously as the statements state-ments emanating from the press bureau: bu-reau: of the British and French 1 at offices. There is every disposition on the part of the American press to jive all possible prominence to news from German sources. The lack of such news is a continual subject of regret But without the services of famed and unprejudiced American correspondents at or near the Ger-pian Ger-pian lines such news could never be obtained |
