STRICT CENSORSHIP

SUGGESTED..

OWNERSHIP RULES

Madrid. April 21.

The freedom of the Spanish press appears doomed if a press law introduced in Parliament la approved as it now stands. It would submit nowspapers, motion pictures, radio and phonographs to a censorship on almost the slight- cat provocation.

Even the monarchist newspaper "ABC," which has been campaign- ing for a press law to prevent no- called excesaca by extremist news- papers, expressed astonishment at the proposed law which, it said, "would be equivalent to delivering the press, its function, and its rights, to the arbitrariness and conveniences of the government. If the government is given this law it could dispose of the press according to it's whims and make the newspapers according to its taste. Never in any regime has the local press been treated with much tenacious aversion and con- tinuous hostility. After increas- ing extensively the responsibilities of the press and the most effective procedures for demanding these responsibilities, the law would catablish the censorship as a nor- mal recourse of the government."

The Thornycroft high-speed diesel offers all the advantages of the petrol motor plus the low fuel cost of the heavy oil engine.

Types-from 9 to 120 b.h.p.

The press law project comes after the Spanish press and all cables-press and private-have been subject to a rigid censorship ever since inst October, - Sbe Right Wing elements demanded a press law because they claimed the re- volutionary sentiments which led to the October blood-letting, were provoked by Inflammatory articles in the Left Wing press.

NO FOREIGNERS 7.

The Minister of Interior, Senor Seun Elay Vaquero, who aided in drafting the projected law, ex- pressed the opinion that the law ought to include a provision that the directors of foreign news. agencies functioning in Spain be Spaniards and not foreigners. A clause to that effect la not contain- ed in the present draft of the law.

The bill is unusually detailed, covering five full

newspaper columns. It would affect "the press in general, the reproduction of idens, opinions or news on phonograph records and their diffusion by radio, motion pictures or still pictures."

The

TIME TEST and

'ASPRO

THE old idea that a dozen

medicines were needed for a

dozen complaints—that laying up for indefinite periods was necessary—that it was also necessary to take dangerous drugs and narcotics-was an illusion. 'ASPRO has dis- pelled it. For it is the medicine that takes the place of a dozen medicines, because, after ingestion in the system. it is an internal antiseptic—an anti-pyretic or fever reducer an anti-periodic—a powerful germicide, and a solvent of Uric Acid. and, therefore, banishes the causes of numerous complaints. That's why 'ASPRO' banishes headaches in five minutes. It's the time test for quick action, and it stands the test of time. *ASFRO' soothes the irritable--brings sweet sleep to the sleepless-relieves' cheumatism in one night-smashes colds and influenza ar inception. Furthermore, 'ASPRO' does not harm the heart or the stomach. It can be taken by all. from child to parent. anywhere, any time. The price is within the reach of all.
