HAMMOND’S WARNING
“We are a democracy. The vote of the private citi
zen alone can save us from becoming a corrupt democracy.
Public indifference spells calamity!”
Thus John Hays Hammond, chairman of the depart
ment of political education of three National Civic Federa
tion, states the menace which hangs over America. Re
luctance to exercise the privilege of suffrage results, even
in presidential years, in government by a minority
and the directions of public affairs through com
binations of politicians who hold themselves in power
by the might of their organizations, plus the sulpine in
difference of the rank and file of citizens, who are too
busy with personal affairs and personal pleasures to vote.
Golf, fishing, motoring, holiday making and the like oc
cupy their time from dawn to dusk on election day.
More power to Mr. Hammond and his nonpartisan
band of associates who would correct the situation which
undeniably exists throughout the American Union!
THE QUEST FOR THRILLS
There is too much appetite for thrills. A week or two
ago six students in a western college were arrested for
burglary, and they explained that they didn’t need the
things they stole, but they wanted the thrill And now
some volunteer firemen have been arrested for arson, and
the explanations is that they wanted the thrill of a fire. A
crime in Chicago that attracted world-wide attention a
couple of years ago, was due to the fact that two very
young men wanted a thrill. This taste for thrills ought
to be discouraged.
GLORY OF BIGNESS
That monster British motor car, 1,000 horsepower, 24
cylinders, 48 spark plugs and 8 carburetors, is expected to
go 200 miles an hour. It is precisely the thing we hope
never to see flashing along the Seward-Kenai highway.
The glory of bigness is rarely tvorth while.
