Farber was reacting to the Su preme Court's refusal Monday to re view contempt convictions imposed on him and on the Times for the re porter’s refusal to allow a New Jersey judge to inspect his files about a murder trial. The court s action leaves reporters across the country "in a state of limbo about their ability “to pre serve the confidentiality of their sources and at the verv least to re ceive a full and fair hearing," Farber said. "It is imperative for a free press to have the Supreme Court rule on the critical issues raised in this case. Times publisher Arthur Ochs Sulzberger added. State shield law's give journalists a privilege to protect sources. Sulzberger said Farber dill reporting under the full guan a shield law passed by theNtiJ sr\ legislature — but laterii by N ew Jersey judges.
