Perfecting Democracy

In an editorial on Americas position in
the world, The New York Times recently
said: Our strength is not our wealth, man.
power or technology Alone or chiefly. 1t
is in perfecting democracy at home and
helping to make it possible elsewhere"
It has often been observed that this
country does not possess anything re-
sembling monopoly of the worlds ma
terial wealth. Other nations have natural
resources and an industrial potential which
are comparable to ours. They, too, have
the riches which would make possible a
high standard of living for their people.
But the United States has been almost a
lone among the powers Of the world IN
developing these resources for the benefit
of the ordinary man and woman. The very
essence of democratic capitalism as we
know it, has been to make our material
wealth work for the benefit of us all-and
to equitably share the rewards among all
producers.
We have not reached perfection. But
nowhere else on earth does the ordinary
man or woman receive SO much return for
his or her labors. Nowhere else on earth
does opportunity to go ahead exist on SO
great a scale. The leaders of American
industry today were the clerks of yester-
day. 1t is perfectly possible that the
American president in 1852 or 1856 will
be someone who is unknown to the coun-
try at present. That is the heart and soul
of what we term the American systelc.
Opportunity to go to the top is open to
all-and a mans rewards are commensu-
rate with his contribution to our society.
This is what American freedom stands
for. Free enterprise, upon which all the
other freedoms rest, is not a vague thing,
without significance to the masses of the
people, 1t is living, breathing principle
which stands squarely between us and
dictatorship, statism, or some other form
of oppression The idea that government
is the servant, not the master Of the people,
was an almost unique conception when
this country was founded-and the power
of this vast nation is its monument. The
perpetuatiOn of our democracy, and its
defense against all enemies within and
and Without is one of the greatest con-
tributiOns America can make to trOubl
ed world in which whole nations have sunk
into totalitarian slavery.

Dairy Products Contest

Three All Club girls in each qualifying
