In the discussion period, how
ever, brotherhood ideals took leave
of the panel and the true colors
flew high. Two questions from
the audience made the ~not-so-lov-
ing speakers take Of ftheir masks.
One question directed to Mrs.
Blanshard asked how are we to
apply the ideals of brotherhood
to those who are hostile to de-
mocracy. If we are to apply the
answer several Of the speakers
would be treated accordingly. We
should, we were told, compromise
our ideals Of brotherhood! The
other question directed by the
writer to anyone in the entire hall
was, since it is more a case of
lack of truth in education than
education in truth, who was going
to educate the educators and how.
The question was never answered
because Mr.. Sanders refused to
accept it, stating that it would
take a great deal of discussion.
Perhaps he was right, it would
require much discussion, but
there were few people in the meet
ing who doubted that he had 9th
err reasons for refusing to permit
the question to be answered.
However, the speakers were
only a minority of people present.
The response from many present,
particularly young high school
people who are sincerely cropping
for answers to many Of the burn
ing questions on brotherhood,
their response was gratifying.
They questioned the speakers on
methods and means of combating
intolerance and prejudice. If the
elders still cling to their inlandish
attitudes, the young people are
sincerely seeking fresh ideas, new
perceptions of life. It will be thru
them that "brotherhood" days will
become nothing but a memory in
mems minds, for all days will be
devoted to it, not special days.
