Occupation Forces
In Japan Relaxing
Press Censorship
■y th* Aueciolad Pros
TOKYO, April 14.—Occupation
censorship is slowly relaxing and
within a few months the Japanese
press will not be required to submit
articles before publication, head
quarters officials said yesterday.
A system of censorship after pub
lication will continue, however, to
minimize “destructive criticism of
the occupation and Communist
propaganda,” said Col. R. S. Bratton.
The head of Gen. MacArthur’s
Civil Intelligence Section made this
statement to the Associated Press
in outliping current operations.
The latest in a series of steps was
the suspension April 7 of all cen
sorship in the processing of books
and magazines of American origin,
Col. Bratton said.
No Deletions Made.
He added that no deletions had
ever been made from any book or
magazine from America, but said
difficulties over copyrights and roy
alties, not censorship, had kept some
books from circulation.
The colonel reported that 39 daily
newspapers and Japanese news
agencies sttyl must submit all ma
terial for censorship before pub
lication. But more than 5,300 other
newspapers throughout Japan al
ready have been placed under a
post-publication system of censor
ship.
The Japan Broadcasting Co., the
only radio system in the country,
has been operating under post
publication censorship since last
August. So do all Japanese book
publishers “except 14 of the ultra
right or ultra left,” Col. Bratton
said. Thf same goes for all maga
zines except 28 of extremist views.
Outgoing Copy Not Censored.
No censorship is maintained over
outgoing copy of Allied correspond
ents. Any of their copy submitted
for publication by Japanese news
papers is subjected to censorship.

to stop it, censors cut deeply into
stories regarding his political avail
ability.
“We don’t like censorship any
more than you do,” Col. Bratton
declared. "It’s un-American and
it’s a headache to us. What is not
generally appreciated is the fact
that is an Allied occupation and
we have to protect all our Allies.”
Censorship was ordered by the
joint chiefs of staff in Washington
when the occupation began.
Holtzoff Issues Resfrainer
Against Railway Firemen
District Court Justice Alexander
Holtzoff yesterday ordered a pre
liminary injunction against the
Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen
and Enginemen, restraining it from
negotiating a proposed agreement
which would abolish a nonpromot
able category of firemen.
The order, stayed pending a spe
cial appeal to the United States
Court of Appeals, came down as the
appellate court took under advise-:
ment another restraining order |
against the union prohibiting dis
crimination against colored firemen
on three railroads in the South.
The latter order resulted from a
suit brought against the union and
the railroads by a group of 21
colored firemen who alleged agree
ments between the brotherhood and
the carrier* excluded them from
work on diesel locomotives and on
new runs.
Yesterday’s action grew out of a
suit by three colored locomotive
firemen who asked the court to stop
the brotherhood from negotiating
an agreement proposed last Janu
ary, whereby all firemen would be
required to take examinations for
promotions.
While most firemen now must take
examinations, a brotherhood spofcsa*
man said, all are not required to* dpi
so. v *■' ^
