PRESS GAG IS
SEEN IN THE
NEW SPY BILL
Senators Say "Rider" to the
Espionage Act Will
Be Muzzier
Washington, April 5. —A bitter
fight developed in the Senate yester
day over a proposed amendment to
the espionage act under the terms
of which some Senators asserted it
would be difficult for any newspaper
or individual to print or utter a word
Jbtcriticlsm of the government or
any of its departments or officials
without some one facing the neces
sity of going to prison for twenty
vears.
The proposition, supported by sev
eral administration leaders, was
characterized by its opponents as de
signed to put the clamp of govern
ment control on the press and to
make it subservient to tli'ose who

FRIDAY EVENING,
are in power to-day. It was gener- l
ally agreed to be almost without •
precedent in its scope.
Senator Walsh, of Montana, is the
' author of the amendment, which is
verbatim, a statute written into law
by the Legislature of Montana last,
' year. The Senate Judiciary Commit
tee several days ago tacked it to the ,
I end of a House bill, designed to pun- !
i ish persons who interfere with the
' sale of Liberty Bonds and reported ■
' it to the Senate with a recommen- j
dation that it pass. This action by i
the committee followed a closed j
i hearing, ut which the representa- 1
tives of Attorney General Gregory \
j and Postmaster General Burleson |
i gave testimony.
Penalties Are Severe
The amendment makes it criminal
to "utter, print, write or publish any i
language calculated to bring the i
form of government of the United j
States or the Constitution of the !
United States, or the soldiers or sail- j
ors of the United States, or the (lag I
of the United States, or the uniform
of the Army or Navy of the United j
States into contempt, scorn, c • t
tumely or disrepute, or to utter, i
j print, write or publish any language !
! calculated to incite or inflame, or J
j resistance to any duty constituted !
J federal or state authority in connec- i
j tiou with the prosecution of the I
war." and provides penalties of l
! twenty years in prison or SIO,OOO fine j
or both.
! Senator Hiram Johnson, of Cali- j
I fornia, in an assault upon the meas- ;
urf, described it not merely as a \
I bill designed to abrogate the free- :
dom of the press, but also "a bill
that seeks to make one refrain from
! discussion or criticism, and even
! purports to prevent one from think
! ing as he wishes to think."
Creel's Writings Recalled
The career of George Creel, chair
man of the committee on public in
; formation, was brought into the de- I
i bate by Senator Watson, of Indiana, j
: who made it appear that Creel's edi- ;
torial attitude toward the federal '
government before the war was such
as would make a criminal of him un- j
der the terms of the Walsh amend.
