Took Three Weeks to Get Results

Students of the American form of
government agree that one of its
marvels is the fact that democracy
has been made possible throughout a
nation made up of widely separated
sections, with population of over
100, 100000 people. 1t will be remem-
bered that Monroe warned Congress
that country that reached from the
Atlantic to the Middle West was "too
extensive to be governed but by a
despotic monarchy"
Monroe's pessimistic prophecy
would doubtless have been fulfilled if
the means of distributing political in
formation had remained what they
