Editors Note-Democracy does
not mean anarchy. Our democracy
calls for representative authority,
which we. the people. delegate to
the president, congress and tho
courts. Often. perhaps, they do
not really represent us. Our
recourse. then. is to choose other
men. There are many laws that
many Of us. as individuals. do not
think are right But we have no
justification on that account 10
Gefy the authority Of the law.
That would be anarchy. Democ-
racy Is not lawless rule.
There were many OF us who for
years wanted to make things more
democratic by leaving II TO the
PEOPLE to decide national az well

unto itself lawfully these added
