Secretary of War Patterson told Army In formation School graduates today that both the public and the soldier are entitled to full facts about the Army without censorship except for "real security." Patterson, in an address pre and information and education officers, asserted: "Censorship is anathema to Americans. During war Americans submit reluctantly but still voluntarily to it.

ine man is witlpss. hmvpvpr. who assiimpc ing mucn Of. the congestion and that the American nennle will delays now encountered on the. submit to censorship in time of a i i i i pieseni route, locai name peace because they willingly ac will be accommodated on com it in time nf war." So far as the Army is concerned the only reason for censorship is security of the Nation, Patterson said, adding: "I mean real security not fancied or fanciful security that stems from a desire to hold back essential information." "In time of war," he continued, "security should cover no more than a narrowly prescribed list of operations and weapons; in time of peace, it should cover only the barest minimum of classified activities." Patterson's only reference to the atomic bomb was in his opening remark that none of the explo sives of warfare is as powerful as the iorce of words.

construction stages are keeping the engineers busy. In order to push the work on the latest Pitts burgh nroiect it was deemed technical staff in the service and necessary to engage the services other jobs in the planning and of an outside engineering firm.

PAGE 13 Truman Candidate Loses Election In Home County Kansas City, Nov. 6, (TP) Presi dent Truman's political prestige and that of the Democratic organization headed by his close friend, James M. were dealt a hard blow by Jackson county voters yesterday. Democrat Jasper am was re elected to Congress in the President's own Fourth District, but Mr. Truman's hand picked candidate for' the other Jackson county Congressional seat was de feated by a youthful Republican, Albert L.

Reeves, Jr. Unofficial returns from the 255 precincts in the fifth district gave Reeves, running for his first elective office, 40,035 votes 35,711 for Enos Axtell, likewise a political beginner. It was Axtell whom the Presi dent had asked his friend and political ally, Jim Pendergast, to back in the August primary against Rep. Roger C. Slaughter, the Congressman the President said he didn't want back from his home county.

On top of the Axtell blow, the Pendergast organization, of which the President is a dues paying member, lost two important posts in the county courthouse to Re publicanspresiding judge of the county court and prosecutor. The Democrats did give the leader of their ticket, Senator Frank P. Briggs, of Macon, a 3000 majority in the county over his Republican opponent, James P. Kem, of Kansas City, but it was not enough to ease the sting of defeat suffered by the loss of a Congressional seat and two important courthouse positions. Kern's state vote gave him a 57,000 vote victory margin.

The GOP trend was reflected by the contrast in the two party headquarters, only a half a block apart. For the first time in 18 years the Republicans stayed up late, reveling in their local victories. While down the street the Democrats sent their band home and closed up headquarters early. It was just before the closing that Axtell and Harry A. Morris, Democratic county chairman, sat down to compose a congratulatory telegram to Reeves.

About ten minutes later they decided not to send one. "It's too early et," said Morris, "the election hasn't been decided yet." The two then left for home, Democrat Wins In York County Senatorial Race York, Nov. 6. Traditionally Democratic York "county, re elected Guy A.
