essential to America than are short work
weeks and fat pay envelopes. Maybe we
have stopped getting and begun giving.
Maybe we have stopped crying about a
Democracy that doesn't work" and be-
gun striving for Democracy that pU
work.
MOST of US realize now that we shall
need all our courage and self-sacri6ce if
we are to win this war. But we must
realize too that we shall go on needing
them, even when we are victorious.
For liberty and justice are lost not only
in war but in peace. 1t didn't take
a war to produce Hitler; it took only
a Democracy that didn't work. And
Democracy will work for US only while we
work for Democracy. This means, first,
that we must be informed; that we must
use our. votes intelligently and, 50 far as is
humanity possible, without regard to our
own selfish interests. 1t means we must
end the rule of self-seeking politicians and
pressure groups. We must get over the
gimmes" the idea that our government
has no other province than to pour the
taxpayers money into our laps. We must
remember that in land of equal oppor-
tunity, there is no room for class hatreds,
or for ruinous struggle between capital
and labor. Otherwise, what has happened
abroad can happen here.
1t is not only japanese bombs and Ger
man bayonets that we have to fear; it is
the surrender of our priceless heritage of
liberty and free enterprise and human
dignity, through relaxation and greed and
apathy and ignorance. Now that we know
what we're fighting for, maybe we'll 60 on
fighting - long after we've conquered
Japan and Germany, and until we have
conquered the foes of freedom that are
our own follies and failings.

RAsT year l delivered a lecture on
Democracy over the greater part of
- these United States, learning - as
so often happens more than l taught.
The most surprising thing l learned was
the extent to which we, who enjoy its
blessings. had come to distrust Democ-
racy, how little many of us knew about it.
In almost every city people came to the
platform to argue that our form of govern
ment won't work. When began asking
the complainers, What do you mean by
Democracy" found that what most of
them meant was not form of government
at all, but standard of living. To some,
Democracy meant autos and radios and
electric refrigerators and high wages and
short hours. To others it meant old-age
pensions and social security and the SOL
diers' bonus and government subsidies.
A few talked vaguely of liberty and JUS
tice, but almost none of them seemed to
see that Democracy is business - their
business and their responsibility.
That was before December 7. 1941. On
that day Japan launched its treacherous
attack on Pearl Harbor - and millions
of Americans woke up.
WE BEGAN to realize that Democracy
does mof mean only standard of living. We
began to understand that liberty" and
Justice" and freedom" aren't just vague
words - that they mean more to us than
all our automobiles and refrigerators and
radios. But most important of all, we began
to see that Democracy's blessings benefit
every one of us, and that we've all got to
battle to preserve those blessings.
Richard, the carpenter, had understood
that months before Pearl Harbor. He was
building some bookcases for me - and
had asked him, Dick, do you think
Democracy works.
Evening star., 1942-02-22

He laid down his plane, and reflected.
Nothing works." he replied finally,
when everyone wants to get and no one
wants to gise. How long would work for
you if l had no interest in this job but
what l can get out of it? Democracy is
government by the people, for the people
- and it seems to me we've got to buckle
down to the idea that if for the people
means all of US, then by the people means
all of US, too. Democracy will work for
us when we work for Democracy"
That was true before Pearl Harbor,
and it is neither more nor less true. now.
In all the years past, and in all those to
come, the vital question is: Which do we
value most Life. Liberty or the Pur-
suit of what we call Happiness? And when
Fsay Life, l don't mean autos or electric
refrigerators; l mean what millions of
people mean in countries where they can
be shot without trial - even without sus-
picion of guilt - as thousands of hostages
have been executed in France and Norway
and Yugoslavia.
Liberty isn't vague word to me. When
write it, I'm thinking that l can write
or speak or worship or move about as l
please - within obvious limits - and of
nearly 400 million people in Europe who
can't I'm thinking of boys and girls torn
from their homes and shipped in cattle
trucks to do forced labor in the Reich; of
hundreds of thousands of innocent men
and women who spend their nights waiting
for visit of the secret police. I'm thinking
of the millions of people for whom Happi-
ness doesn't mean mink coat or cock
tail party, but bit of stale bread, the
safety of their loved ones, and the posi-
bility that some day again. they may be
certain of Life and Liberty
Perhaps Pearl Harbor has convinced
US that protection from such terrors is more

you went into your uncle's office,
and found him dead, there was a
broken lei of ginger blossoms on
the floor; and you thought that it
was the lei you gave to me. But
I've had to talk to Tsura, and Lilua,
and Hokano, before l even found
out that much.
"You mean to tell me that you
really weren't there? You weren't
with James Wayne that night at

.'Of course not. But I've pieced
together what happened, now. The
lei you gave me that night was a lei
that Lilua made for you; but that
was not the only lei she made She
made another lei for Hokano; and
he was wearing it, when he came
looking for her that night"
"You mean that it was Hokano

"Hokano was looking for Lilua I
could have told him where to look
for her. But he couldn't find her
because she was in your room"

| had already warned you to lock
your door. But Hokano didn't know
anything about that. He saw James
Wayne's light; he stepped into
James Wayne's office through the
window, and demanded to know
where Lilua was. OF course your
uncle was furious that a large, very
wet Kanaka should come crashing
into his office through a window.
His anger was too much for him,
on top of everything else. He stood
up and threatened Hokano; and then
just suddenly collapsed and was
gone Hokano leaned across the
desk, to see if he was really dead.
The ginger blossom lei caught on
the corner of the desk and broke.
and just then Tsura came tapping
at the door, peddling her glass of
milk.

Most of it. Who else could? He
