FREE SPEECH-RUSSIAN
STYLE

If you are inclined to believe
the Communist propaganda that
free discussion is now permitted
in the Soviet and its Satellites,
the following sad tale should
let you know that "the leopard
still hasn't changed its spots. .
Speech IN the Soviet orbit still
bears an expensive price tag
the concentration camp or death
despite what Krushchev and
his buddies may claim.
AT recent meeting in Czecho-
slovakia at which great emphasis
was given by the presiding Of
ficer to the matter of free dis
cussion, Comrade Novak fell for
the communist buncombe. He
asked permission to ask two
questions and the chairman told
him to go ahead.
"Comrade President" he said,
my first question is: Why is
meat so high? And my second:
What happened to Archbishop
Beran?"
"Comrade Novak," the chair
man replied, ''it is getting late,
and | had rather not drag out
the meeting I'll answer your
questions at the next meeting"
At the next meeting, another
member of the free (?) discus
sion group begged permission to
put three questions. With permis-
sion granted. he asked:
First, Comrade President,
why is meat so high? Second,
what happened to Archbishop
Beran? Third, WHAT HAS HAP
PENED TO COMRADE NO
VAK?"
Free Discussion-it is to laugh!
Correct 1t is to cry.

ELECTRIFYING PREDICTION

In a recent statement, j. W.
McAfee, president of the Edison
Electric Institute, predicted an
annual sales level of 3 TRIL-
LION kilo-watt hours will be
reached in 1879 by the nations
electric light and power indus
try-five times the 1857 sales
level.
IN the past 7 years, about one
third of the forecast period, the
entire electric industry has
nearly doubled its sales and gen.
Grating capability," said Mr.. Nc
Afee. In looking to 1879, we
view the current situation as a
breathing spell. In the past, read
iustments like this one have been
followed by greater gains in the
economy than ever before
Mr.. McAfee qualified his pre-
diction by adding that the Insti-
tute's forecast assumes America
will not become involved in 8
shooting wan between now anc
1879; that the American people
will continue along the road OF
| individual initiatives; and that
the pattern of government econ.
omic activity affecting taxes, in
terest rates, spending and infla
| tion would be experienced as II
the past.
1t is good to know that the
electric light and power industry
looks forward with such optim
ism to the future, provided
| America is putting forth its bes
effort to prevent the cold wa
| from turning hot. 1t behoove
| all of us to make sure this ma
| ton continues along the roat
of individual initiative" :" Thi
can be accomplished if we stead
fastly combat every attempt o
the public power ZealotS to pu
the Federal Government further
not only into the power bust
ness, but into any business tha
constitutionally belongs to pri
yate enterprise.

Means and Ends

With all due Difference to the
scientific knowledge and engin-
eering acumen of Satellite Pio-
neer, DR.. Wernher Won Braun, |
strongly disagree with q state
ment he repeatedly made recent
ly to the Lions international
convention in Chicago.
According to United Press In
ternational, Won Braun said such
men as Einstein and Edison ac-
complished more for the good of
society than any other element
in past and present civilizations.
Such a view is much too mar
row. 1t equates the good of So
ciety" with benefits from mater
ial accomplishments. 1t over
looks the vitally significant fact
that, in order for our material
accomplishments to genuinely
benefit society, they must be un-
dergirded by a solid foundation
of spiritual discernment and at
tainment
Without such a foundation, our
material accomplishments can
only implement our downfall
rather than our uplift.
It is those who give us insight
into the purpose, beauty, anc
goodness of life who illumine ,hC
values required to hold society
together. Hence, we must look tc
the ranks of our great spirltua
leaders, our inspired artists
poets, philosophers, musicians tC
find the good" in any society
Without their vision, there coul'
be no Einsteins or Edisons.
No doubt, we owe much &
those who help us gain poWe
over our environment. But, w
owe most to those who help II
to gain control over ourselves
The means at our disposal cal
be of no more value to US than
the ends to which they are dedi
Gated. OF what avail the poWe
to split the atom when used t
build a bomb?
1t is what we do with what "
have-What we are inSide-nC
the gear with which we surroun
ourselveS-that determines tn
ultimate fate of every individu;
and every society.

There is ample reason to be
lieve that the Puritans became
familiar with the use of ballots
in Holland and elsewhere in Eu-
rope before coming to America
in 1920
An early ballot law of l647 in
Massachusetts colony was passed
by the Assembly at a time when
the distinction between a COM
pulsory and voluntary secrecy OF
the ballot had not became I'M
portant. The vote was cast, one
record states, by ''wrighting the
names of the persons elected, IN
papers open or once foulded, not
twisted or rowled up, that they
may be sooner perused".
The secret ballot was adopted
in the Northwest Territory, OF
which Ohio was part, but IN
many elections in the early days
of Ohio tickets" were distributed
to the electors and they usec
these tickets as ballots, depositin9
the ticket in the crudely made
| ballot boxes.
The Enabling Act of April 30
1902. established the provision:
of the elective process and re
| quired residence in the North
west Territory for one year. The
| formal organization of Ohio un
der the State Constitution, adopt
ed in November, 1902, provided
call elections shall be by ballot
"The loudest cry against the Sc
cret ballot came from the prop
ertied classes in some sections o
the country, who wanted to know
who was for or against them anc
to influence the vote of those whC
! worked for them
But from the very start, Ohio
has had a secret ballot, although
{ there have been many instance
of difficulty in keeping it SO.

Last week, in the Independ
ence Day mood, the early guar
antees of the right to vote as
first established in the American
Constitution, and later in the
Ordinance of 1887, the Ohio Con-
stitutions of 1902 and 1851, and
the amendments thereto, were
discussed
Perhaps a further interruption
of discussion of present-dsy
election procedures might be in
dulged in by looking backward a
greater number of years.
While the secret ballot, as we
know it today. is perhaps the
best system ever devised, the bal
lot is not modern day inven-
ton.
Our first real knowledge Of the
ballot" is recorded in ancient
Greece, where "dikasts' Courts
and juries) voted Eyes" or mo"
by means of balls of stone or
metal, olive leaves, pottery and
tablets of burnt clay or marked
shells, known as "ostrakon" +.
From the use of these marked
shells came the word "ostracism, !"
or secret vote of the people by
which they drove into exile those
whom they disapproVed.
Ostracism was in tr d u e d
into Greece about 600 Be. at
least 5000 duly qualified citizens
were required to take part IN
the proceedings-those who fav-
ored exile wrote the person S
name on the ballot Cor indicated
by one of the other methods;
and those who did not, cast un-
marked shells.
Judges also used stones and
metal balls, which they cast into
| boxes, in giving their Verdicts,
A far cry from the secret bal
| lot of today, employed to choose
our representatives in govern
ment and to express our will on
questions and issues. But, at that,
the Greeks had an idea.
We will, sometime in the flu
ture, discuss early Roman Vot-
| ing, and the English viva voct
| system, as we'll as voting in the
American Colonial days.

Election
Lows +. . .
l. By Ted w. Brown
Secretary of sfois of Ohio

While our election laws and
our election administration in
Ohio are recognized as being
among the best in the nation
and we take the PROCESS of elect
ing our officials and deciding
issues by ballot more or less for
granted, the origin and story of
the ballot is most interesting.
We recently commented that
the first use of the ballot was in
Greece around 600 B.C. History
also records that the use of the
ballot in civic and legal affairs
was carried over into the Roman
civilization where tabellae, or
wooden tickets, were chiefly
used. If the vote concerned a
change of law, the tickets were
marked "U.R.," meaning ''as you
ask" and if the voter favored no
change, he marked his ballot
with an "a" for antique" mean
ing 'for the old" An entire sys-
tenn of secret balloting was
established in Rome in 80 BIC.
This system, however, fell into
disrepute, elections becoming a
farce.
Various forms of elections
were instituted during the Mid
die Ages.
Voting by paper ballot was in
cluded in many state constitu-
tions adopted by the first states
of the Union. But elections as
we known them today are a far
cry from the so-called secret"
ballots first introduced in
America.

Something To Worry About


All things in this life are rela-
tive. AS for-instance, you'll re-
call the poor, unlucky fellow who
felt so sorry for himself because
he had no shoes, until he met a
much more unfortunate man who
had no feet.
Your Viewer of THE American
Way" was reminded of this en-
counter of the shoeless person
with the footless citizen by a
short story carried in the July
1858 issue of THE OUTLOOK"
a Toronto, Canada, publication.
The Canadian publication re-
printed it from ''Nepszabadsag"
of HUNGARY. The story goes as
follows:
Relative Worries
A Hungarian family was arous-
ed in the middle of the night by a
hammering on the front door.
White as a sheet, the father cried:
"Who is it The secret police?
mo, nothing to worry about"
answered the porter, Il just
wanted to tell you the house is
on fire..
How thankful we Canadians
and Americans should be that we
live under systems of govern
ment where the burning of d
home is something to worry
about. Let's keep things that
way by stoutly and steadfastly
resisting all attempts further to
socialize our economy Socialism
definitely is something for us to
worry about.
