The Free Press believes that the
school directors in announcing the postponement of the
opening of the schools following the holiday layoff on
account of the tevere weather is wise and will meet
with tlie approval of the majority, if not all, of the
school patrons. It would have been practically impos
sible in. the prevailing temperature to have made the
school rooms at all comfortable for the children, and it
U very doubtful if more than a mere handful would
have braved the weather to attend school. In addition,
the conservation of the fuel supply is in keeping with
the spirit of the t.mes. The Free Press is informed thA
the city schools are fortunate in having an ample supply
of fuel to carry them through the winter. Be that at
it may, the protracted cold spells such aa have been en
dured ilur'.rg "Hem'biwilinake it hard to ostimate
lust tow much fuel will needed, and the saving of
some now will unquestionably be practicing a eafety
flrst policy. The time lost can no doubt be made up
at the conclusion of the. session with slight inconven
ience perhaps to the plans tf. the achool authorities, but
nevertheless without seriously - hampering tho- work

A HArPY NEW YEAR.
The Tree Prest wiihe for all of its readers, friends
and one fraught with the gravest national problems that
those of the balance of the country, a liappy New Year.
The year of 1917 Just closed has been an eventful one
ad one fraught with the gravest National problems that
this country has ever been called upon to face.. Indi
vidual prelum and trials have been likewise vexing
and complex. The terrific Increases in the cost of all
living necessities greatly exceeding, on the average, the
increase in Incomes has. brought the. people face to face
With new economic problems as respecting the Individual
at well as new economic fiiestiona with regard to the
national life. These developments have not overwhelm
d nor discouraged the people of America for they arc
possessed of those sturdy traits of character which JU
them for the hard foatiles of life. They have faced the
new conditions vi'th determination. :mi itetoohition Jo

KEVISED CENSORSHIP. J"
The action of the Committee on Public Information
in revising regulations promulgated last June as a guide
to the voluntary censorship of the press of America will
result in jiving the press k.tude in certain directions
to give news which is of real value and intense interest
ti the people. , The principal revisions are those relating
ti the publiihing of the names of officers or the indi
vidual vnita of expeditionary forces and the identity of
merchant ship (successfully defending themselves
against German U-boats and the crews of such ships.
The Committee on 'Public Information has found out that
the enemy could get, such information irrespective of
whether !t appeared in the American newspapers or not,
ami it has very wisely cancelled the restriction which the
most of the newspapers of the country had respected and
observed.
The personal interest element attaching to the identity
of men, ships and regiments, which take prominent part
in the fight, is so intense and keen that its gratification
will help, The Free Press believes, in preserving the
morale of both soldiers and civilians,. -,"
It is not out of place' here to call attention to and
congratulate the loyal press of the country, as well as
the patrone, for the observance of the strict regulations
;mposcd upor. them in their" voluntary censorship and In
the patience exhibited bjrtbe readers.

heretofore going through the port of New York to be
diverted to other Atlantic and southern ports. Not only
will this relieve the congestion at New York and thus
facilitate the handling of export trade but it will be
of iminenec importance and value to the ports which
