A A. D. EISSENGER Attorpey-at-Law Kensas city, Missouri June 17, 1933 Hon. homer S. Cunmings, WASHINGTON Esteemed Sir:- The cold-blooded massacre of officers at the K.C. Union Station this morning proves to my satisfaction that my prophecy, that martial -- wins law would yet have to be resorted to to deal with American banditti, is correct as set out in my letter of April 16th, Ther_are enough (. °- 7 outlaws hidden in the bi.ls of uklahoma to wipe out a town of 500 °° inhabitants. . Ce The press, however, must be censored if the best results are to : be obteined, The public is becoming increasingly indignant over the way’ BN newspepers broadcast inform.tion thet aids desperadc s in making their escape. For exemple: ne. . 1. A conversation among bandits was overheard in which their plen to head for the Warsew Hills was obtained. Inmediately the press broadcast- ~ . _ ed thie information. Their confederates can easily inform the fugitives a thet their destinetion is knorn and to change their route. . 2 Recently a detective was shot. A local newspaper furnished the - informetion thet the death car was heavily nickel-plated vith an unusual _Bumber of accessories which were nickle-pleted, Heing advised that the | a , description of their car was knom, they naturally removed the conspiou- . ous accessories to avcid detection. 3. The papers this morning carried advance informetion that Nash | was being brought to Kansas City as per clipping enclosed. What business ke had the press to publish this item? This information was disseminated . by the early morning editions for the benefit of desperadces before the - underworld even had retired and in plenty of time, to round up local killers. wo As long as newspapers are really accomplices of desperadcos in help- oS ing them make their get away, no blame should attach to police officers | for failure to "bring them in".
