William Faulkner Describes
(Continued from por/e one)
When they came they found that
dream wan, “man's aspiration ir
the true meaning of aspiration.’
“Something," Faulkne.r said,
“happened to that dream.” He
used a story to illustrate thif
point. It was a story about a
critic who was offered a good
sum of money by a magazine
publishing house to do a aeries oi
articles on Faulkner.
Faulkner would not consent
to give the writer informatior
on the grounds that his was a
private life. The writer, he said
would be invading one of hii
inalienable rights. The right tc
assert his individuality without
I answering to anyone. However,
1 he couldn't stop the writer from
i trying.
He pointed to the case of Dr.
Robert J. Oppenheimer, noted
atomic physicist recently denied
security clearance, saying that
"all privacy was stripped from
him," These days are days when
“security or insecurity is all that
counts."
When did America turn from
j this dream ? Faulkner says "It
goes back to the time when we
repudiated what our forefath
ers meant by liberty. We didn’t
, abolish truth. We couldn't do
that It merely turned its back
on us.”
