IT IS NOT HER BELIEFS

that OCD might not bc harmed by crit

The first lady did d commendabic thing

only thing that will restore OCD to some
Semblance of public respect Perhaps
she is bot to he blamed for the lack of
clear vision demonstrated in her letter
of cSiEn3tiun.
It was not Mrs. Roo>eytlt's "beIiet>'
which brought about criticism Of herself

You cannot call the setting up of So

under the EUise Of WI effort belief
1t MAS an action
What Mrs Roosevelt believes is her
own business What she does N a public
capacity is the business Of the public.
Nobody has moral right to criticize her
beliefs, although everybody has a right
to disagree with them, ANYBODY. on the
other hand. has right to criticize any
action of hers which affects the welfare
of all the people.
We are truly sorry that Mrs. Roose-
welt has been unable to recognize the
difference This failure on her part un-
doubtrdlv has caused her considerably
amount of hitt 'rneSS. as would be natural
ON the part Of amy person whose beliefs
might HAY. been held up to public scorn.
Mrs Roosevelt may argue that beliefs
and action. arc insep&rable-thata actions
are prclitajrd upon beliefs. To that de-
gree We c1n agree with her. We hoid'
however, mat before beliefs are translat-
ed into "ctons which affect the whole
public. the public should have chance
to voice It's desires in the matter.
If Mrs. Roosevelt wants To turn be-
liefs into actions in the future. IN Il Way
directly relating to public welfara, W
suggest that she first do what her hus-
band did-give the people chance to
vote upon the question whether they want
her services.
