Two Ways of Life

This is Convention Time in the
United States. Once every four
years, the various parties get to-
gether with considerable fanfare
and choose their candidates for
the Presidency of this country. 1t
is notable affair always, and
especially this year when so many
countries are at war and so many
lands are living under a system
where one party is all supreme
and Interchangeable by the orderly
processes of election.
In this country, the Communist
party was one of the first to meet.
Small in numbers, it has been loud
in its insistence upon its right In
our democracy, rights which no
citizen enjoys in Russia, land of
the party's birth. Respectful of the
rights of minorities-even a
minority standing for everything
that true Americans despise-the
great radio networks of this coun-
try agreed to broadcast the con-
vention proceedings.
This gave hundreds of radio sta
tions throughout the country the
opportunity" to schedule the
Communist Convention. 1t was at
this point that the true difference
between two ways of life was re-
vealed, for almost all of the sta
tions exercised their democratic
right to turn down the program
and pay canned music" instead.
They knew that their American
listeners would not be interested.
If the same situation had oc-
Cured in Russia, or Germany or
Italy, the stations wouldn't have
had to make a choice They would
have been told what to do. And
there wouldn't have been any
minority party convention for
them to accept or refuse.
Little incidents like these point
up the distinction between the two
systems-and incidentally, the
stations in question exercised their
democratic rights well and judged
the interests of their audiences
very wisely!

Supper Is Still
Important

The click click of the lawn
mower sounds through the still
spring afternoon and the fragrance
of fresh cut grass makes the air
sweet. There are shadows on the
new cut lawn, sweet summer shad-
ows and its SO warm that Johnnie
stops to wipe his forehead with the
back of a brown arm.
| have promised him strawberry
shortcake for supper if he'll cut
the grass this afternoon and I sit
on the side porch stemming the
red heartshaped berries. But in
my neighbor's house across the
lawn the radio is going. I try to
close my ears and still my mind. !
viii think only of the sunshine, the
fragrance of new mown grass the
shortcake | am going to give my
hungry family -.
But even if | close my ears to
the radio the dread headlines of
the morning paper race through my
mind. And suddenly l want to
chuck the half stemmed berries
into the garbage pail, pull my
apron over my face and cry and
What does it matter whether the
supper l get for my family is good
or not? A million families half a
world away will be hungy tonight!
What does it matter if the grass
is cut or allowed to go to untidy
seed? Utter destruction is wasting
the sweet green lawns in other
lands and why should | know the
satisfaction of sitting on my own
little porch on a sunny afternoon
watching my child when women
by the tens of thousands will never
see their homes again?
Then there is quiet in my yard
The Coolidge examiner., 1940-06-13

as the lawn mower stops for a
moment And Johnnie, turning a
grinning freckled face, waves to
me from across the pansy bed
Such flood of love pours into my
heart that there is now no room
for fear. My fingers reach for the
berries again.
For that strawberry shortcake
is important! | see it now. It's
part of the pattern of security and
comfort and every y-dayish-ness"
that |, as a woman, am privileged
to build against this terror that
stalks the word. And | know
now that by every deed and word
and gesture possible | must pro-
tect my children against hysteria
that is rising even here so that
they may grow to manhood and
woman hood as strong and fearless
and hopeful as if there were no
war at all.
So supper tonight is important.
And it will be- important tomorrow
night and the next night and the
next For there is comfort in
food and a sense of blessed Sc
curity as the family takes their
PAGES at the carefully set table
and mother carries in that longed
for shortcake.
