Thfo-rwrr' rWffiriiln-'r . usually is that most of the criticism is either not constructive 1 "" 11 ' ' or it is misdirected. It accomplishes little or nothing undent those circumstances. j . The Union County ChamlK-r of Commeree is frequently, and widely criticized. Some of the criticism is unquestionably deserved. Other criticism has a basis from the standpoint of tfe individual making it. Still other things are utterly' Xmwarranted and result from lack of actual knowledge of the !t ruth. j . All chamlwrs of commeixy suffer the same variety of: criticism so do a'l commercial clubs and civic organizations' So do municipal, county and state governments. That's one of the priveleges of democracy. But, bad as these public! institutions may seem to lie to the chronic "ciab," we don't : sec them alwlishcd. They remain, grew, and accomplish, in1 most instances, cnoujih pxkhI things so that the average ofi development and botteimcnt is constantly raised. i Although there are numerous things, perhaps, that The' Observer thinks coultl well W done differently and to a bet-j tor atlvantage in the local chamber of commerce, vet we would not under any cireumsUtnees fail to support its activities or! urge that they 1h abolished simply liecause we have a little' diffiMvnce of opinion.

ICven the nit severe critics will admit, in their hearts' at oast, that we. as a community, should have a chamber of eommeixY. They know that civic spirit is one of the main TOluiicnvents of community awntplishnscnt, that civic spirit! is not cngendeml individually Init by groups, and that the xavst and most nauvw civic spirit ls far letter and nrc' valuable than nope at a'l. mi everyone !-o is not a nyn:!,-r of the chamlvr commerce heiv is tet its functions.
