In a meeting in New York Secretary of U.S. Navy, Josephus Daniels made a speech in which he congratulated all the members on the good taste and high moral scruples which the organization displayed in suppressing this tale of a dry Senator's son who came weaving his way into New York with loud cries to see U.S. Governor Al Smith. Josephus Daniels said that suppression was a gentlemanly thing. If there is to be free flow of information through the land it should not be under the control of those who are finicky concerning facts.
