WHAT HOLDS IT TOGETHER

Most Americans understand,
in one Technology or another,
that they govern themselves by
means of democratic concepts
and processes operating through
a republican Representative
form of government. Perhaps
they need to comprehend more
clearly that these processes are
held together by a cement of GER
tain assumptions without which
their nation could plunge into the
abyss Of authoritarianism.
The democratic process con-
sists of never-ending debate on
what needs to be done by and for
the people as a whole and how
best to do it. The republican
machinery of government pro-
vides that at stated intervals the
citizens must have a show of
hands to determine which opin-
ions are prevailing and conse-
quently which loose grouping
political partly shall carry out
its rough approximation of ma
jority sentiment until the next
poll.
1t is part of this total process
that the minority shall keep a
watchful eye on everything the
party lin power" does or fails to
do; that it challenge that party's
acts and policies (even those it
may end up by supporting): and
that this minority seek, by way
both of this fault-finding" and of
presentation of positive alterna-
tives, to build itself into a major
ity.
Such continual give-and-take
presents to the authoritarian
minded a false impression of dis
unity-false, as the Nazis learned
and the Kremlin will have to. For
the "disunity" has its limits, and
the freedom to disagree within
those limits provides the demo-
cratic-republican nations wit b
such potent self-correctives that
no basic errors. such as those
Hitler committed, can be carried
to their ultimate for want of op-
position.
This is a wonderful system
one which has vouchsafed its
beneficiaries more freedom of op-
portunity, more tect ION,
more fulfillment of aspirations,
and more creature comforts than
any system yet devised by men.
Yet it is a system which can op-
crate only on the basis that its
participants desire its continu-
ance and accept its rules-that
the controversies within it aim
at improving the system, not
destroying it.
This sine qua non goes even
further; There must be recipro-
cal good faith-assumption that
those on the other side of the ar
gument, unless proved otherwise,
also want to preserve the sys-
TEN and help it to prosper. Out
side such loyalty and mutual con-
