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.
All data must be marshalled

tempt by the high command to shield its errors from public
view, as some commentators
the news blackout.
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

New Type Culverts Being
Installed in Forests
The Umpqua National forest
service has received pressure
treated wood stave culverts, V. V.
Harpham, supervisor of the
North Umpqua National forest
service stated today, which will
be used on the Cow Creek water
shed in the Umpqua National for
est. Some of this culvert, 60 inches
in diameter, will be installed to
1 1 epia
what is now known as
! the Newman bridge on a forest
road on upper Cow creek, Mr.
Harpham said.
This size of culvert is some of
the largest installed on Douglas
county roads and, as a forest ser
vice policy, Mr. Harpham stated,
large culverts are being installed
now in lieu of bridges when it be
comes necessary to replace the
bridges as it makes a more per
manent job.
