THE RIGHT OF
THE MINORITY
BY Ruth Taylor


The rights of the minority
are the rights of the majority
no more, no less, for if we should
look at the problem realistical-
~ and not in the spirit of re-
sentiment. we should see that
each infringement of minority
rights" is really an infringe
ment of majority rights
Any attack upon the rights
|of a minority whittles away the
rights of all. History has prov
en- this again and again. The
early barbarians who ravaged
the outposts of civilization could
not hold the countries they con-
quered because, as they destroy
ed all rights except their own,
there was nothing left to take
root and so stabilize their con-
quests.
Each country which has tried
to legislate religion. and to wipe
out all creeds but one. has fallen
from power, no matter what the
creed - for religion, like a tree
constrained in a narrow space.
dies of its own restriction. For,
like unto a tree, religion must
have space and freedom to grow.
dependant as it is upon universal
ity and freedom of spirit for
life. 49,.
Such has been the exeperien-
ce of very Individual or group
who ever tried to hold power by
wiping out the rights of a
minority. They have found that
they have cut their oWn roots
as well@and have gradually
starved to death as does the
murdered tree.
In Europe the minorities of to
day are hunted and harried from
pillar to post. Driven from plac,
20 place, from nation to nation
or forced in SubServience a.
mounting to slavery, their fu-
ture is black. So black it is tina
but two courses remain open
gradual lowering of morale until
there is an almost animal-likt
Scrvility to those in authority
or a life of constant danger and
hole in corner intrigue, with an
ventual explosion inevitable.
In this country we do NOT
have the rights of minorities
OR majorities. We HAVE the
privilege of choice by the ma
joritv; the obligation Of CO.
operation by the minority. The
rights belong to all, on complete
equality and with out differen-
tiation. for that is the democrat
ic way Of life.

Already long range German

The Hitler hordes have not
