WITCH HUNT NOT NEEDED

New York Countys War Price and Rationing board, through its
director of public relations, has complained of reluctance on the
part of shoppers to report violations of price control regulations.
This is not surprising, and the board should in no way feel at
fault. For more than $50 years the American people have known
nothing but frank and open dealing with each other and with
their government. They have long been proud of the fact that in
trigue and secret police activities have no place in this land.
Our government was founded by men who feared and abhorred
such procedures. The traditions that took root the day we be-
came a nation, cannot easily be swept aside.
As a matter of fact, we need no army of investigators" to keep
a watchful eye on the distribution of necessities. Price and rat
ioning rules that are reasonably understandable are accepted in
the spirit in which they are wrtten-as an effort to do the utmost
with what we have to achieve victory. Toward this end, retailers,
and everyone else, including the press, will continue to do far more
than merely follow the rules. They will continue to seek with
every means at their command TO keep the public informed on
the necessity and the problems of price fixing and rationng.
Unless they did do this, the government could not carry through
its program, and everyone knows it. So why not go easy on the
witch hunting tactics? They will never become popular and can
never replace good old-fashioned American methods of doing bus
mess.
