OPINIONS SHOULD DIEFER

IT is characteristic of most persons who
have decided opinions on any subject that
they endeavor to bring everyone else to
their way of thinking.
In cases where the issue is clear-cut
one, involving right and wrong, it may be
that an uncompromising attitude is justi-
fled. But who shall say just what is right
and what is wrong? Ideas concerning
right and wrong change with the times.
Not 50 many decades ago some of the
most cultured and enlightened people of
this country believed that human slavery
was legitimate and proper. George Wash
ington was one of them; at least he was a
large slave-owner as long as he lived. We
think it wrong today.
The Puritans thought it wrong for a
man to kiss his wife on Sunday, and they
passed law prohibiting him from doing
so. We think it all right today.
If everyone had agreed with such old
ideas and no one had ever mustered up The
courage to combat them, we should nave
made little progress. We would still be
hanging witches
What is needed in the world is not
that we should all think alike, but that we
should have greater feeling of tolerance
and respect for the opinions of others, when
honestly held, no matter how much. they
may differ from our own. <-
The average normal person is really
seeking for the truth-buc the truth -
often elusive and each must find it in his
own way.

A UTILITY PRAISED

Continuing a custom which has been
followed for some time, an Alabama public
utility recently paid its taxes several weeks
before they were due, in order to aid the
schools Of the state which were in des-
perate need of funds. Commenting on the
occurrence. the Selma Times-Journal said .
We want to pay tribute to the
generosity and public spirit of the Alabama
Power Company in paying its taxes two
and three months before they ar due, to
relieve the pressure on the state and the
schools in their present financial plight.
The power company has previously ad-
vanced 100000 and is now paying $780,
600. constituting payment in full"

of the company, but its officials have an in

schools. and voluntarily made this sacri-
flee. thereby setting fine example in good
citizenship.
