EH The of TOPICS OF THE DAY "If Uncle Sam wants lo gel out of debt all he needs lo do is lo turn his shipyards into ouija-board factories." New York World. Dead-Line Sedition "It ought to be a simple matter," an Indiana editor remarks, "to mark and brand the real scditionist." But it is not a simple matter apparently for Congressmen to devise a measure which will satisfy at once those who fear that our institutions will be overthrown by seditious propaganda, and those afraid they will be undermined by interference with civil liberties. In order to help Congress find out what kind of legislation the people really want, if any, we have asked a large number of newspaper editors to set down the provisions they think a sedition act ought to contain. THE LITERARY DIGEST for March 6th presents these opinions, and taken as a whole, gives a constructive basis upon which to build. While the Dayton News believes that "public meetings where the Government of the United States is attacked and insulted should be stopped everywhere and those who persist in traitorous activities should be jailed, fined, or deported as the case deserves," the Kansas City Star declares that "additional legislation is more dangerous than soap-box oratory or foolish publications." Running between these two extreme viewnoints the article in TPIE LITERARY DIGEST reflects a wide field of public opinion.
