This must be strictly adher ed to for the protection of the public as well as this newspaper. As far as we kfaow,*the news items we received without the names accompanying them may have been all right, and then they may not have. Let it be understood that the names of persons furnishing the news items will not be published unless so requested; neither will this newspaper reveal names of per sons submitting news* if the information is correct. • Recently there was announcement of a marriage which was supposed to have taken place outside of the state. The item was signed “A Subscriber.” There may as well have been no signature at all because we have no way of knowing which one of thousands of subscribers it Was. We presume that the announcement cor rectly stated facts, but we cannot operate a newspaper on presumptions. The an nouncement could have been an attempt to play- a practical joke on the parties named in the announcement, who may not be married. We doli’t know. * If people couJd only realize that the name of the person submitting news is es sential, it would mean that more news could be used and that your newspaper could render more news service. Our Nation’s Strength % ■ In a recent radio address, A. C. Mattei. president of the Honolulu Oil Company, said this of the war: “Victory will emerge on the side which has access to the great est number of natural resources. Victory will remain with the side which makes of these natural resources the mo.st intelligent use. “The natural resources of the United States are our greatest material asset. We have been endowed with ah abundance of' oil, coal and natural gas—with water pow er and timber—with vast deposits of iron, zinc, lead, copper and a host of other im portant materials^ . . . “Peacetime thinking takes most things for granted-^including the high state' of development of natural resources. Under the stress of war, we begin to think be cause we must. Then only, do we realize that such development as ours did not happen by accident. “It is the immediate and tangible result of the initiative of free-men—of labor and capital operating on the basis of free com petition—operating under a free economic system.” A few figures uhow what that free sys tem has done for us. Last year, we pro duced 80^000,000 tons of steel—half the total production of the world. We pro duced 450,000,000 tons of soft coal, which furnished two-thirds of the heat, light, power and energy used by the nation. We produced 1,250,000,000 barrels of petro leum, which drove our 28,000,000 automo biles, fueled the navy, lubricated our ma- cWnery, heated homes, etc. And we pro duced 280,000,000,000 kilowatt hours of elbctric power for the industries, homes and farms of America.

Sometime's we think that a few enemy bombs dropped at certain places through out the country would acqomplish good re sults.
