democratic> forms of government
under the free institutions of a
free people.
It is understandable that they
should ask this question. They
read the words Of those who are
telling them that the ideal Of in
dividual liberty, the ideal of free
franchise, the ideal of peace thru
justice is a decadent ideal.
They read the word and hear the
boast Of those who say that a be-
lief in force-force directed by self
chosen leaders-is the new and Wig
orous system which will overrun
the earth. They have seen the
ascendancy of this philosophy of
force in country after country
where free institutions and individ-
ual liberties were once maintained.
It is natural and understandable,
therefore, that the younger genera
ton should first ask itself what
the extension of the philosophy of
force to all the world would lead
to ultimately. We see today in
stark reality some Of the conse-
quences Of the machine age.
Where control Of machines has
been retained in the hands of man.
kind as a whole, untold benefits
have accrued to mankind. For
mankind was then the master; the
machine was the servant.
Mastery Of Machines
In Hands Of Few
But, in this new system of force
the mastery of the machine Is not
in the hands Of mankind. It is
in the control of infinitely small
groups Of individuals who rule
without a single one of the demo-
cratic sanctions.
The machine in hands of ire
sponsible conquerors becomes the
master; mankind is not only the
servant but the victim. Such mas
terry abandons with deliberate con-
tempt all Of the moral values to
which even this young continent
for more thar 300 years has been
accustomed and dedicated.
Surely the new philosophy proves
from month to month that it could
have no concept of the way of life
or the way Of thought Of a nation
whose origins go back to James
town and Plymouth Rock.
Conversely, neither those who
spring from the stock nor those
who have come hither in later
years can be Indifferent to the de-
struction of freedom in their an
cestral lands across the sea.
Perception Of danger to our in
situations may come slowly or ii
may come with a rush and shock
as it has to the people of the Unit
ed States in the past few months
This perception of danger has come
to us clearly and overwhelmingly;
and we perceive the peril in q
worldwide arena-an arena which
may become so narrowed that on.
ly the Americas would retain the
ancient faiths.
Some indeed still hold to the now
obvious delusion that we of the
United States can safely permit the
United States to become a lone
island in a world dominated by the
philosophy Of force.
Question For q. s.
One Of Prevention
Such an island may be the dream
Of those who still talk and vote a.

Uncle Sam is getting quite upset
about fraudulent pledges" of 10y
atty among WPA commies. A
Communists pledge doesn't have
enough meaning to be fraudulent,
because they are oaths sworn to God

sign such oaths freely.

There is bin before Congress,
which If passed, would regulate the

would also disarm many who have
no reason to carry guns. The Dept

passage of the bill as an aid to ma
tiona defense But one person
seems very interested in seeing this
bill killed. His name Is Robert
Edward Edmondson of Stoddardts-
vile, Pa.--who is having people sign
petitions urging the bill die The
man carries on his campaign from
Pennsylvania, because in New York
a few years ago he was indicted by
the Grand Jury on charges brought
by Mayor LaGuardia and others.
But the dear old American

Tense and saved him And now
Edmondson is up to the same tricks
which resulted in his indictment.
