HURLS CHARGE AT EDITORS
Salinger Denies
News Management
Washington, Mar. 23 l* —
Presidential Press Secretary
Salinger has pleaded “not guil-
ty’’ to charges that the Kennedy
administration has managed
news.
Instead—he said yesterday—
it is the nation’s newspaper,
television and radio editors who
determine what their readers
will read and what their lis-
teners and viewers will hear.
lie suggested that a serious
study should be made to see if
these editors are "managaing”
the news in the public interest.
Salinger told a Women's Na-
tional Press Club luncheon the
administration has not and
never will have a policy of pre-
senting a false image to the
public.
He declared that in the Cu-
ban crisis the administration
did not lie or deprive the pub-
lic of information “except that
which, for the highest national
security, had to be withheld
from our adversaries.’’
He said the government has
no apologies for imposing com-
plete secrecy (luring the per-
iod between discovery of Rus-
sian missiles in Cuba and Presi-
dent K e n n e d y’s quarantine
speech of Oct. 22nd. He said,
“This policy was absolutely
necessary for the success of the
President’s quarantine plan and
I believe it played an integral
part in its success. If the status
of the US information and US
plans became known to the
Russians during the period, we
could easily have been faced
■with an ultimatum- and
heightened chance of nuclear
war.”
He said charges of news man-
agement by the administration
actually were an inferred and
serious charge against the jour-
nalism profession. In effect, he
said, they imply that Washing-
ton reporters “are stupid dupes
who can be manipulated and
misled by clever government
press men.” He added:
“Nobody who has spent more
than a month in Washington
really believes this and many
distinguished reporters in Wash-
ington should seriously resent
it.”

To Tame Wife
Lago», Nigeria, Mar. 23 III
(/PI—An African journalist of-
fer* some advice on the best
way to tame an unruly wife.
She should be beaten, but
not maimed.
Writing in the Lagos Daily
Telegraph, he advocates to
“doing havoc on her back
with the tail of a horse un-
til the husband feels a pain
in his right hand.”
He concludes, “That is the
way to maintain domestic
protocol and discipline be-
cause a woman is like a child.
S*-- must be beaten up to
inject some sanity into her
coconut head.”
