  We consider density-density correlations in the one-dimensional Hubbard model
at half filling. On intuitive grounds one might expect them to exhibit an
exponential decay. However, as has been noted recently, this is not obvious
from the Bethe Ansatz/conformal field theory (BA/CFT) approach. We show that by
supplementing the BA/CFT analysis with simple symmetry arguments one can easily
prove that correlations of the lattice density operators decay exponentially.
