Whаt аre the New Yоrk Times’ аrguments against the Espiоnage Bill presented in the editоrial re-typed below, from April 13, 1917? Use evidence from the text in your answer. (10 points) “The Espionage Bill “Whoever, in time of war, in violation of regulations to be prescribed by the president, which he is hereby authorized to make and promulgate, shall collect, record, publish, or communicate, or attempt to elicit any information with respect to the movement, numbers, description, condition, or disposition of any of the armed forces, ships, aircraft, or war materials of the United States, or with respect to the plans or conduct or suppose plans or conduct of any naval or military operations, or with respect to any works or measures undertaken for or connected with, or intended for the fortification or defense of any place, or any other information relating to the public defense calculated to be, or which might be, useful to the enemy, shall be punished by a fine of not more than $10,000 or by imprisonment for not more than ten years or by such fine and imprisonment. – Subsection (c), Section 2, of the Espionage Bill. “In preparing this section of the Espionage bill its authors gave no heed to the necessity for discrimination. They would inflict the penalties of heavy fines and long terms of imprisonment upon friend and foe alike. The newspaper or the individual who publishes or seeks to obtain information about the policies or military operations of the government we intend to communicate them to the enemy to his benefit and to our harm ought to be made to smart for his treason. But the newspaper or the individual who criticises or points out defects in policies and preparation with the honest purpose of promoting remedial action and warning against danger is not a public enemy. Service of that kind is friendly service, to the Government and to the people, it is often of incalculable value. The British Government would have stuck to the ineffective shrapnel instead of substituting the powerful explosives that are now driving the Germans in terror from their trenches if the British press had not hammered the need of high explosives into its head. “It is a Prussian measure, consistently modeled upon those press laws and practices which have forbidden the German newspapers to tell the German people what the Government was about, or what other Governments were about, with results that were set forth with amplitude and lucidity in the President’s address to the Senate the other day. To call this section of the Espionage bill high handed would imperfectly describe it. It is high handed, for under it the freedom of the press may be extinguished. But in doing that it would take away the right of the people to know what the Government is doing, and how it is doing it, and it would deprive the Government of the invaluable aid of enlightened public opinion and of the guidance of the public’s not less enlightened criticism.”

(10 points) “When the Robert E. Lee [Steamboat] Stopped at Aunt Jemima’s Cabin “Twenty years or so after the Civil War the ‘Robert E. Lee’ was en route to New Orleans. As the famous old side-wheeler near the junction of the Red River with the Mississippi, an old Confederate General on the upper deck called the attention of the other passengers to a little old cabin on the bank. “Then he went on to tell them how, twenty years before, he and his orderly had become separated from the troops and had stopped at that cabin to ask their way. A mammy had directed them and then had insisted that they stay for a ‘snack.’ He told them how that ‘snack’ had turned out to be the most wonderful meal he'd ever tasted. All she had given them was pancakes, he said, but oh, what pancakes they were! Later he had learned that before the war this mammy had been cook for the Colonel Higbee whose pancake breakfast had been the talk of all that part of the country. “So enticing was the old general’s description of the mammy’s pancakes that when the steamer had tied up at the landing the party eagerly voted to go assure and see if by any chance the old cook was still there. “How Aunt Jemima became famous “Sure enough, she was still living in the same cabin and gladly mixed up a batch of her cakes for them. Several of the gentleman immediately made her tempting offers for the recipe, but all were refused. “Later, however, one of the party returned. He was the representative of a large flour mill, and had not been able to forget those pancakes. This time he was more successful –he persuaded the mammy to sell him the recipe, and that is the way Aunt Jemima’s pancakes became known to the outside world. “The Aunt Jemima Pancake Flour you buy nowadays is based on that same recipe. Year by year, since it was first put out in packaged form, it has grown more popular –until every crossroads grocery store carries it in stock, and the Louisiana mammy's pancakes are America's favorite breakfast!”
