F. DU lard. , NEED FOR By Charlet V. Stanton WE have been hearing and reading a great deal of com " plaint lately from the "man on the street." The OPA is being assailed for its cancellation of ration stamps. The blackout of news which followed the German breakthrough on the western front is not popular. The kind of talk heard on the street and the ideas expressed in letters to editors indicate weakened confidence in the government. The integrity of a government should be such that its peo ple may rely upon its words and actions with implicit confi dence. But public confidence cannot be built upon a founda ton of half-truths, hidden facts, propaganda and deception. We have criticized the OPA form the opinion we are opposed to price control and ration ing. But the contrary is true. We believe the OPA, on the whole, is doing a swell job, a necessary job. We believe that the majority of OPA workers, both paid and volunteer, are doing their best to give everyone an even break. But about every so often the OPA comes up with some act, such as its recent ration stamp cancellation, which arouses public anger and resentment. Women, who had counted upon the OPA's veracity when it listed their stamps as being good "indefinitely," are genuinely irked by cancella tion without warning. People who had held that relaxation in rationing was an election move are now saying, "I told you so." The OPA needs public approval and cooperation to secure greatest efficiency in its program. It devotes a great deal of energy to "educating the public." But its work on educa tion can be quickly undone by some thoughtless stroke. Those ration stamps, so carefully guarded by the house wife, grow to be precious. Their destruction is equivalent, from a sentimental point of view, to tossing a handful of dollar bills into the fire. Having no reason to doubt OPA declarations of short ages, we can only accept the statement that foo'd shortages made tighter regulations essential. But the OPA would do well in the future, to give more thought in advance to public reaction when some drastic step is planned. Cooperation in volves mutual assistance from two or more agencies, it can not be one-sided. As to propaganda in the news, censorship and news blackouts, many angles are to be considered. We can understand why the high command withheld news in the early phases of the German thrust. Anyone who has ever been around the scene of an accident or a fire knows the problem involved. The curious get in the way of in vestigating officers, the fire department, and equipment. Nearly everyone asks foolish questions. Spectators arc in total disagreement concerning collect all essential information, appraise damage or losses.

But we have every right to expect that when the facts have been compiled they should be truthfully reported and without reservation, except as military security necessitates. The American people know full well they have not always been told all the truth. Many people listen to enemy propa ganda only because they distrust the news we are given bv our own government. These things are not us they to expect our government to mation which can be released without aiding the enemy. We have a right to expect that news to be truthful and uncolored, j the bitter with the sweet. We have a right to expect fair and ! honest treatment from the hands of those in whom authority is placed not manipulation instance, the contrast between the treatment given the Montgomery Ward company ami Reported III Mrs. Stiicr Lmir nni'p, employee at tho Poucrlns AOstiaiM oilier, was tumble In bi at her work Tuesday her home on Ella st y.
