OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
PATRIOTISM

AS dictators would have it, pa
triotism is the willingness to kill
and be killed for ones ruler How
ever, the dictionary states, "A pa
triot is one who loves and is de-
voted to his native country and its
welfare"
If that definition included an
adopted as we'll as a native coun-
try. it would be more correct, for
there are numerous citizens in
America who were born abroad, but
who are loyal and devoted to their
adopted country.
Has the observance of national
days degenerated2 Do we not think
of Thanksgiving Day in terms OF
turkey and pumpkin pie2 When
recall the 4th of July celebrations
of few years back, always think
of over-doses of gunpoWder and
spread -eagle oratory. Nowadays
they involve holiday trips and ath-
letic events.
Patriotism is something deeper
than the waving of flags. 1t means
the embodiment of true American
ism, by precept and example. 1t in
wolves spirit of appreciation. Do
we feel thankful for the civil and
religious liberties we enjoy. and for
the Constitution and Bill of Rights
by which all these blessings are
protected?
My country, right or wrong
said Decatur. Just as we love our
parents or children when they make
mistakes, SO we should defend our
nation even when in the wrong. No
patriot will approve the wrong, but
he will do his best to have it cor
rected
Mechanical preparedness against
attack is not enough. There must
be intelligent alertness, without by
sierra, to cope with internal danger
as well as foreign aggression.
1 And if an American feels lump
in his throat on the 4th of July he
need make no apology. That is g

Checkers Find Forged
Signatures, 1t Is Alleged

Considerable work was done in
Libby during the past week in an
attempt to keep Jerry O'ConnelPs
5000 plan from going before the
voters at the primary election. To
place an initiative measure on the
ballot requires the signatures of a
certain number of voters. The work
done here was to secure the re-
moval of signatures from the petit
ton by those who had previously
signed them. It is understood a
large number struck their names
from the petition when the work
ings of the proposed law were more
fully explained to them. 1t is also
being alleged that some of the names
on the petition were forgerles, which
can easily be proved, SO it is said.
Another thing that has aroused re-
sentiment is the report that workers
for the plan received rs cents a
name to secure signers to the in
itiative petition.
The 5000 plan is a proposed law
that would pay $50 a month to all
needy persons over so years of age.
To raise the necessary funds, b
per cent tax would be placed on
certain large corporations and bus
inesses. Some small concerns would
be exempt from the tax. Opponents
of the measure maintain that this
tax would, of necessity, have to be
passed on to the public and would
result in a high increase in the cost
of living Just how any corpora
ton could pay 6 per cent tax on
gross business without passing it on
to the public and still remain sol
vent is difficult to explain.
