The Independent . put aside the volunteer idea,then courageously reversed itself topass the Roosevelt resolution. It threwthe censor provision out—that also waswell. For a better plan, one that willachieve more in the end, goes into ef-fect with this very article—the first tobe officially vised: Edgar Sisson, editorof the Cosmopolitan, is to be in chargeof a vise department in the busy housethat was once a mansion near theWhite House, where the Bureau ofPublic Information is doing excellentwork under Chairman Creel.
