Thomas Jefferson would enjoy being
alive today. This war is the sort Of
struggle in which he delighted an
uphill fight to establish and maintain the
integrity of human dignity, the rights
and privileges of the individual, the
sanctity Of the basic freedoms, the indie
pendence of smaller nations. jefferson,
the great apostle of grass-roots democracy,
was born 200 years ago today, at time
when rights which are taken for granted
today, everywhere outside the axis
nations, were not even usual privileges.
His statement of those rights in the
Declaration of independence, and his
successful fight to have them included
as an appendix to the Constitution-the
Bill Of Rights - unquestionably were.a
major factor in their slow but steady
dissemination throughout the world. The
war he waged against oppression, tyr
amy, and intolerance, has not been won
even yet. If 1t were, we should not now
have TO fight Germany, Japan and Italy.
Perhaps none of us living today will be
privileged to see the human freedoms
established safe beyond dangerous en-
croachment. But at the cost Of blood,
sweat and tears, we ere moving another
step toward the goal.
We could use jefferson, if we had him
now. We could use his brilliant polemi-
cal powers to arouse us and keep us wide
awake to the tremendous issues which
are at stake. This is true not only as
to our offensive battle against Hitler and
Hirohito. It is equally true of our de-
fensive battle against the danger OF
acquiescing so long in wartime restraints
that, when the time comes, we shall not
be aggressive enough about retaining
all of our suspended rights. Jefferson
would not be happy in these days OF null
titudinous government "czars," In sit
uatlon such that regulations OF ques-
tionable constitutionality are promul-
gated and enforced on the theory that 1t
win take the courts long time to over
throw them.
Probably he would accept the situation,
as we do, as an evil less to be feared than
Axis victory. When the war ended, how
ever, he would be the first to begin de-
handing from the houSetops that every
slightest hint of domestic totalitarianism
be ended forthwith. While we are
thanking the memory of jefferson for
what he did for democracy we can in
clude his outstanding contributions to
agriculture. II this nation is the granary
Of democracy, that Is because jefferson
laid the cornerstone Of the granary by
his interest In scientific farming.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1943-04-10
What Was Behind Il?

Senator Joseph Neill's explosive depart
ure from hearing OF the legislative
Committee on Public Health and Safety
the other day has been variously inter-
preted. But 1t may be that the Water
town man was simply expressing his
utter disgust that his fellow members
would be willing to approve a measure
which proposes that birth control, PLAN
ned parenthood or whatever other
euphonious name you wish TO apply TO
this dislocation of nature be made part
Of our state law. Senator Neill, we don't
believe, has ever been rated as leader
Of forces opposed to birth control legis-
lation, but he has certainly taken steps
TO clear himself Of any charges that he
favors relaxation OF our old statute,
The Committee on Public Health and
Safety, without the voice Of Its Senate
chairman, has just filed favorable re-
port on the measure, heard week or so
ago In Hartford. It's doubtful II enough
votes can be mustered by proponents to
have the bill passed by both houses, If
by chance this did happen we certainly
do not believe that Governor Raymond
=. Baldwin would take the position that
such action demanded his signature,
After all both our legislators and our
executives must realize that In times like
these the proposals contained in the
proposed statutory changes are slightly
ridiculous.
No one has raised his children to be
cannon fodder, but certainly 1t has been
q national life saver that good many
Americans raised large families. Birth
control and planned parenthood fade
into insignificance In the face of the
world holocaust now occupying our full
attention. Why we should fly in the face
Of Providence by urging, recommending,
and giving tacit approval to mass murder
Of the unborn Is hard to understand.
Connecticut boasts of being the land Of
steady habits; steady habits are usually
good ones, so let's not spoil the record.
