' As a matter of fact, citizenship in this democratic dountry embraces the privilege of criticizing or prais ing, according to one's personal opinion, the presi dent, congress, or any other public official or agency which handles the public business. It needs hardly be said that good citizenship re quires more than shouting hooray at every legislative and administrative scheme advanced by those elected ' to public office. It calls for a constant, lively, critical ; interest in governmental affairs. ; Let those who, like our friendly correspondent, are irked sometimes when they hear criticism of the present national regime, recall how they themselves felt and expressed themselves when Mr. Hoover was president Inasmuch as Mr. Roosevelt was quite out spoken of his criticism of what the president at tempted to do at that time, our correspondent's test would raise a question as to Mr. Roosevelt's good citizenship and we're sure she doesn't mean that ; We feel, however, that the contributor's remarks - regarding her newspaper are honestly made and a little discussion is in order in this connection. While opinion of the editors is expressed in the editorial columns, the news in this newspaper, and all good American newspapers, is handled on a strictly ob jective basis, and without regard to editorial policy. In this newspaper, furthermore-space is provided for letters to the editor, and letters -in disagreement, such as that received today, are particularly welcome. Those who criticize should be willing to take a little themselves; :, " " ' z,n "' Civic Event : ; HE annual meeting of the Malin chamber of com merce, attended Tuesday, night by more than 300 persons, was an impressive-demonstration of the forward-looking spirit of the southend community. Many constructive achievements made it a banner year for the Malin chamber, and' it was fitting that the period sliould be topped off with an enthusiastic annual meeting. Just about everybody down that way tuiiieu out, ana is arxraciea many irom otner com munities.' Many of the citizens of the Malin district are for mer residents of what was once Czecho-Slovakia, and many others are descendenta of one-time resi dents of that country. They aim progressive people, ana tnose of us who have come to know them have realized why the Czechs are . universally respected as a great people. Whether they be Czechs or non-Czechs, the people of the Malin community are united in their efforts for community progress, as the success of the cham- oer oi commerce there attests.

News Behi By PaulMallon WASHINGTON, Feb. 81 A fresh Inside report on the crumbling internal economy of Japan has reached the front offices of the state department. It pierced the censorship and cannot be made public but may explain a lot of coming events here including State Secretary Hull's disinclination to approve the proposed senate embargo. Gravest Japanese deficiency of the moment Is in coal. Lead ing manufacturing plant in the three largest industrial cities had to be hut down fourteen hours day for two weeks re cently. A long drought cut hydro-electric power production in half, causing industry to need 2,000.000 more tons of coal annually, and this cannot be obtained. The miners are away to war in China and Manchurlan plants are increas ingly absorbing production there The deficiency may or may not be enough to break Japan The report dow not say. But Mr. Hull may find ground in it for assuming a position against the embargo, thus lavlng the United States free to impose I countervailing duties and furth er import restrictions as dip lomatic neo"yiv arises. DFWEY FEARED Leader: Senator farxtenberg was regarded a likeliest choice tor me repuoucan presidential nomination among national com mitteemen and women who should know best. Prevailing Vandenberg opin ion among them was shown at a dinner-table consensus of a dozen newsmen, some one of whom had tnlked with each member. But the committee crowd was not at all sure the Michigan senator would et it They were afraid of Dewew whom they call "the Dick Tracy candidate." Thev re ported the peol in thfl lo calities seemed ' le afrid of Dewey's youth and tot'l lack of executive i experience than they were. FARLEY HELPS Noblesse Obline: The wise oolitical men of the congress- lotiftl cloakrooms accept Gen eral1 Farley's entry In Massa chusetts a s intervention for Roosevelt, and are telling this story:.,. ..... ,, . The democratic chairman is supposed to have gone to the president apd said substantially: "1 see you are not entered in Massachusetts." The president is being quoted as replying: ."I don't knew anything about It, Jim." "Well, you can't beat some body with nobody. Do you object if I enter?" "Why no, Jim, go right bead." The tale, not substantiated by direct confirmation, is nevertheless apparently entitled to credence in view of the sim ilar inference In the published telegram by Massachusetts State Chairman William H. Burke. . WRONG SLANT Careful: Senator Wheeler's announcement that he wanted no part, pro or eon, of the third term fight in primaries, is be ing misinterpreted as a break from his friend. Jack Garner, the -ice president Wheeler made the decision merely to play his maximum chances. He has not sufficient strength to contest successfully against the president, and did not want to cast away the nomination by a hone ess contest. Garner and Wheeler are still friends, although their political amicability has been greatly LAST "HONOLULU- OAV TOMORROW in.wnot.mru ov...wben u fuanitt VI n pictures beomM Cupid' fwiao-tto first ffMiatantl JWO'SULLiVAn Dennis O'KEEFE won I JESSIE Mini SIDE GLANCES 00. nm it w wtwet. wc t.n m u. w. or. x2i "Will you crsonnl exemptions ro up and we I to bed so 1 can figure '' income tnx!" overemphasised. Recent pub lished quotes implying Mr. Gar ner might eventually favor Wheeler were based on a flip pant conversation between the V.

Senator Wagner may have pushed it up front at this time to shoo some flies off his own baby, NLRB Whether the measure will be pressed for adoption this session is yet un decided. Some new deal poli ticians want to throw all labor issues over until after election if they can get away with It. Author of the Wagner idea is Dr. John R, Steelman, strong ly successful, director of the ex isting conciliation service in the labor department. His depart ment is recognized everywhere as the most efficient of admin istrative bureaus. No one will oppeee .the needed "Steelman project, but Wagner's plan ap parently is to keep NLRB functioning simultaneously with out material change which stand may complicate the out. come of the legislation. Barter Flop: Britain Is not living up to her cotton-rubber barter deal with the United States. No announcements are being made here or elsewhere, but she has shipped us a bare 2630 tons of the promised 87, 000 tons of rubber. This was the total import recorded up to February 1 and some of it apparently was not up to stand ard. United States Is doing fairly well with its end.

When you're arrested or have your attention called to some traffic violation, do you yelp loud and long, threaten to get the officer's job and generally make yourself contemptible? If you do these things, then you are a big-shot only to your self. To everyone else you are a menace, undermining the laws that were made to protect you, not persecute you.

(To tho Editor) I'd Ilka to offor a little friendly criticism of your editorial policies. After all, you should rcmombcr timt a good many of the people, who sub scribe to your newspaper are democrats or "New Ueul Sym pathizrrs," and wo do get tired of reading your caustic com ments about tiio present admin istration.
