Patriotic Education

PATRIOTISM is the love Of ones country
and dedication to the welfare of coun-
try. In the United States of America patri-
otism may be defined to mean the dedica-
ton to liberty. Liberty and Freedom are
precious jewels not bought at small prices.
They have been purchased through forti-
tude, determination, sacrifices of millions
of people who in less than 200 years have
developed and perpetuated system Of gov
eminent, with due checks and balances; an
economy the highest known in the modern
world; civilization, or way of living, en-
We'd by peoples Of many races, nations and
climes.
For the perpetual protection Of the peo-
pies liberty and freedom in government, a
Constitution was adopted in 1888, which
bound together thirteen sovereign govern
ments into a combine for the protection of
all. The Constitution was the first docu-
ment ever written by free people in an at
mosphere of freedom Fresh from the
tyrannies Of European monarchies and
oligarchies and clergy the trainers Of the
Constitution were particularly concerned
with four freedoms, namely, freedom of
speech, freedom Of Worship freedom Of as
sembly, and freedom of the press. These are
the basic freedoms of the individual and
the sovereignty of ca { h governmental
group. or area, which now we call states.
BY which the Republic Of the United States
was formed In our pledge Of allegiance to
our flag it is significant that we pledge
allegiance ITO the Republic for which it

In many ways Congress has been
the frontline Of this struggle for
the soul Of America.
We know OF the determined cf-
forts by little group Of willful
men to perpetuatc IN the war and
postwar years the unrestraincd ex-
ecutive power they had built up
during the New Deal period and
World War II.
Let ne say here that | am not
speaking as Republican. | am not
making defense Of my party. and
l am not making any partisan crit
cism Of the Democratic Party.
My only concern is with the ques-
ton, What is happening to our
country?
As ! have said repeatedly. the
New Deal had no common interests
with the Democratic Party. New
dealism is an importation from
countries here the executive
power was always dominant. or
where rising left-wing factions. in
experienced in politics. yielded to
the childish hope that. if govern
ments were made strong. they
would use their power to serve the
interests Of the people.

party in 1858 that the New Dealers
were interested only in the party in
power.

efforts to capture the Republican
Party in 1853 that they made to
take over the Democratic Party in
1893. leave the rest to my col
leagues.
Let us go back TO November 1914
Most Americans saw only the grand
coalition with its huge armies and
navies and air armadas pressing
forward to victory.

We know how carefully thought

placed by the Morganthau plan for
making Germany pastureland and
sending her scientists and others to

We know how the trained diplo-
mats who understood the Far East

their precise plans for the softening
up of Free China. and the abandon

We know how American economic
ideas Of free enterprise in foreign
trade were replaced by GAIT and
other parts of the blueprint for one
economic world.
We know how our policy was di-
rected to let Korea fall. without let

our people.
! We were fortified inwardly by
the conviction that we bad never
used our superior power TO impose
our will on any other people
We expected nothing from our
sacrifices except liberty for all ma

country.

Only if we have the courage to

Founding Fathers.
l am not going to retrace the
struggle which has gone on in Con-
gress and the executive branch

The point is that we have been
engaged in far greater struggle,
against a far more powerful force,
than consumed our full powers in

October Sunset

Beside my lake muse alone
Towards the close of day
While watch the dancing sunbeoms
Upon the water play.
And os the shadows longer grow
When day is nearly done,
NY heart is filled With rapture
BY the glory Of the sun.
Upon the face Of the woter
Near shadows from tree,
see the sky with beauty filled
Reflected there for me.
There is nought in ife's brovuros
Can more my senses thrill
Thon the sun IN gorgeous beauty
Set low behind q hill.
Of al the things Of loneliness
God through His love has sent,
know Of none more beautiful
Than sunset armament.
He wildly tints the clouds
With purple, pink and gold

With rapture fills my soul.
On clouds thot foot low in the west
There IS b brlIiont flush
Thot changes from rose to crimson
Like moidens When they blush.
Bright coIors 81 them Are blended
In fantastic scene
Meath for October's skies Of blue
Like gems Of crystalline
Beneath their sparkling radiance
Folds Of my heart unc|ose
While \ an charmed BY colors
Like those upon q rose
And os the sun bids day goodbye
While twilight hush is deep,
A stor gives forth its little beam
To light the day to sleep
The cleaning shadows deepen
Around me one by one,
Gods stors odorn the heavens
And the autumn day IS done.
And os the dusk around me comes
On twilight tides divine
seem to feel Gods spirit
Merge gently into mine.

and afterwards and ever since, he

did this by becoming one Of us,
Identifying himself with US, even
the worst Of US, so that as st. Paul
says, "he who knew no sin was

he sides with the repentant sinner,
