Haar-Say Evidence not Trustworthy

A number of reports of disloyalty have reached the County Council of Defense. In many cases an investigation reveals the fact that these reports come from rumors which are founded upon hear-say evidence and when carefully traced down are found to not have sufficient support for action. It will do no good to report' disloyalty to the County Council unless the same can be substantiated by evidence by some one who can make a sworn statement to the truthfulness of the facts in the matter. - , , Wild and vicious rumors have been floating in the atmosphere in and around Rensselaer as to the loyalty of a very prominent citizen, but when a foundation for that rumor was sought for, it could not be loEvery loyal c'tizen is bound to report any act of disloyalty and sLouid be willing to make an affidavit as to its truthfulness. But the careless handling of a person’s repuation should’ be punished as severely as any act of disloyalty.
