"I have no intention of taking action against the editors of the Lampoon or Advocate, unless there is a repetition of the recent incident." said District Attorney Arthur K. Reading in a statement to the CRIMSON last night.

Mr. Reading held a conference with the presidents of the two suppressed magazines, and the difficulties, it is understood, were quickly smoothed out.

"I have conferred with the editors," said Mr. Reading "and I am convinced that they were actuated by perfectly proper motives. I believe they intended nothing, beyond mere fun-making.

"They seem to the normal college men of a very high type, whose recent parodies were inspired solely by a desire to publish a striking and extraordinary issue of their magazine.

"I believe there was no motive beyond that of poking fun at the respective periodicals they parodied."

At this conference, President A, Cooke '26, of the Lampoon, showed to the District Attorney a print of "Olympia," the original painting by Manet, the caricature of which aroused so much criticism in the Literary Digest number of the Lampoon. Cooke pointed out that the picture had been only slightly altered by the Lampoon artist. He also explained that the Lampoon maintained a standard of clean humor much higher than that of most contemporary college comics.

At the close of the session, Mr. Reading expressed the belief that the two college papers would not become involved in difficulties with the authorities again.
