Press WASHINGTON Following is the text of President Roose velt's special National News paper Week message: 'National Newspaper Week again affords an opportunity for us to renew our faith in the prin ciples of Democracy and to re appraise our efforts to sustain that Democracy against our ene mies. In this supreme war effort, the daily and weekly newspap ers of Americ'a are charged with great responsibility. It is their task to keep the people fully and wisely informed, to record and publish those sober facts that will steady the helm and even the keel of a nation tossed on the sea of wartime uncertainty. "Today the war news is bet ter than it was a year ago. We are on the offensive; the enemy has been dislodged in many quarters. let the need for a sharp perspective for a sure balance, for an intelligent exalu ation of our gains and a cautious weighing of our future tasks is imperative. The enemy would confuse and disintegrate us with rumors and minunderstandings. Our most effective weapon against his malicious falsehoods s the truth, an accurate, full, and fair presentation of the news in a free press. "The rights of a free press are the safeguards of the people; the responsibilities of a free press are the commandments of the people." Franklin D.

We are asked to publish these- and we do to the limit of discretion permitted by army and navy exe cutives. There are repeated warn ings, however, NEVER to risk printing too much definite data. We often have to leave out bits of interesting information, probably harmless, yet possibly dangerous. The war department frowns particularly on destinations and post office addresses. We are limit ed to names of states or general sections in dealing with the move ments of service members. If we do not publish all the in- pons to two gallons per unit from the former one and a half gallon value. PVT.

Dorton, director of the war manpower commission said this week that North Carolina's mica mining industry has gone on a 48-hour work w ek basis, and will be listed in the critical occupa tions division. Dorton said that i plan to boost the production of mica was for mulated after a series of meetings with representatives of .-elictive service, the war labor board, war production board, army service forces, the office of price admin istration and the U. S. employ in nt service. He outlined this program: Strategic "iica mines have been classified by the WPB in the order of their importance to the war cause, determined by the money value of mica production by indi vidual workers. Class l mines, of which 41 are in North Carolina, have a pro ductivity of mica valued at $185 a month per man. In class 2, are those mines producing from $125 to $185 a month per man and those in the development stage, of which there are 33. Class 3 is made up of rifting and trimming shops in the state. Many small mines are being opened and are in various stages of divelopment. During development stages, these mines will be placed in class 2 until proper classification, based on production, can be determined.
