The echo., 1944-06-30
RESPECT DEMOCRACY!
BY Ruth Taylor

Father Wilfrid Parsons brought out
an interesting thought recently which
expresses a great d a of what is
wrong in our attitude toward govern
ment He said that we are too apt to
treat legislation as a sports event,
t h "a a bill may be carefully and
thoughtfully worked out and brought
before Congress but when the vote is
taken the headlines read, "Such and
such a side Won"
This is a strong indictment. Is
legislation to be battle of wits-or
a genuine effort to bring to pass
law for the betterment of all the peo-
pie? Must there be a winner and
loser in government? Or is this a
government of the people, by the peo-
pie and for the people?
We must be more dignified in our
concept of public life. We must make
it not sports event where the clever
est is the best, but a career in which
a man does the best he can. We
need to treat with as much respect
the oath Of office as we do to e
physicians oath.
Have you heard the surprise with
which foreigners greet many of our
democratic" vitriolic attacks upon
those in authority? 1t starts with
surprise but then it turns into a sort
of derision. asking, as this democ-
racy?" If you would understand why
they feel this way, read the legisla-
tive news in your morning paper,
critically, not with amused tolerance.
Only as we take seriously our du-
ties as citizens, prayerfully, earnest 1
ly seeking out the best men for the
job, regardless of the party or the
creed to which they belong, then dig
nifying them with respect and expect
ing of them due recognition of the
responsibility they owe - not to the
voters who elected them, but to all
the people of the United States-only !
as we act this way can we properly |
dignity the democratic process. -

The echo., 1944-06-30

Let us show what we really mean
by government of the people, by the
people. Let us stop thinking of it as
a race or a glorified advertising COM
petition and treat our government as
we would have outsiders consider it.
If we don't respect tn e democratic
process, we can't expect our world
neighbors to do So
