during world war Ⅱ , john gunther, the american writer and war correspondent, once asked a censor for the text of a leaflet dropped over germany. the request was refused. he asked why. the answer was, "we are not allowed to disclose any information which might be of value to the enemy." when gunther pointed out that two million of these leaflets had been dropped over germany, the man blinked and said, "yes, something must be wrong there."
according to gunther, immediately before world war Ⅱ , an american journalist wrote home to a friend: "don't know if this will ever arrive because the japanese censor may open it." some time later, he received a notice from the japanese post office: "the statement in your letter is not correct. we do not open letters."
