I . writo this column. 1 on Tuesday morning, wo do not yet know wao wui bo president of 1 the United States tor tho next four rears., But.lt Is with tho deepest confidence In tho. future of -America- and In '.the next- four years, that I already ac- j cept ! thai results whatever I a h o y may be. in a tow days I shall turn Imrottty zaeapMai again toward Europe, and never did I leave these shores with more reluctance and never will I return to them with more pleasnrd and pride. For underneath all tho; bitterness, partisanship, j passionate 4 talk -sometimes inspiring,' sometimes reckless--of tho last months what has emerged? (A-reaffirmation to Liberty, define It as you will. An expressedeontldenco in a determ ination to progress, to bo up and about. and " headed . somewhere. Underneath, alt the, warnings of impeadlng rubx from this course of action or from that, 'a quiet subconscious belief that it ia not so; and the knowledge: that it never will be so.', as long as a ma jority rules and. a . minority can speak Its mind. Y Fundamentally; tho Issues in this campaign have been difficult to- find.' What Is government for? Why does it exist at all? Is It not to create t b,e . envlornment in which, men and women can attain their legHImale desires? t Every one, seeks, first of all, the fulfill ment ot hta 'own ; life economic success, ' according to- standards set by his own capacities and by those of the .society in whichr he lives: physical health : love : , and according to his background and up-bringing various kinds and de grees of Intellectual and spiritual satisfaction.' For the ! attainment of the greatest satisfactions in these things for tho greatest num bers ot people governments exist in free-countries: For lifo, liberty. and happiness, according tor pol icies, ' based upon the most uni versal possible consent; ... 1 -. For th attainment of these things govern mentr according to the American, way has two I unc tions one negative and ono pos itive. Its negative function is to keep away obstacles from the in dividual. To prevent his property from being: confiscated, his per sonal' ambitions from being, frus trated, his opinions from being suppressed, his capacities from be ing Inhibited Its business, on this side. Is to prevent coercion. n To prevent feari Fear of tho police man, 'tear or: tno. a x collector, fear ' of tho recruiting sergeant, fear of the boss,. the fear of the mob. On this side, the American people are extremely sensitive, as are all peoples; with a long tradi tion ot democratic government and democratic society. 'whether they are Englishmen, or French men, or. swedes, ana it is wen that It should be so. For out of this lack of coercion, springs ev erything that Is reatiTo, al urina tive;' and personally responsible. If the American people are hyper sensitive oil this side, if theyare. hesitant to : change ono coercion for oven : more benevolent one. let ns be thankful. Underneath all tho exaggerated absurdities of the Republican campaign was, es sentially, the fear of coerclvo or- ernment, and that is- w n a t the Republican vote wiU have reg istered, i- h i '; y U '. - Bat government has a positlre function. To do things which win helo tho i individual -to reallie these legitimate aims. Above all. tn a democracy, to work to equal ise and generalise tho chance.

In ths Oct. 15th Statesman Mary; C' Brockway In "ivnat is Being Free' speaks of those. Am ericans who favor a- democracy as tho upholder of tho consUtation. Also, she presume that our public school bandings are dedicated to tho teaching- ot the Christian re ligion. -.Iu k; - -w-if .-;ii' t In regard to tho first the people ott tho UJ3.A. havo never, bad s pare democratic government. The constitution waa not established alono by those who favored a dem ocracy. Tho forces for. -a strong aristocratic form, of government, centered around Hamilton; :. vied with the forces ot favoring democ racy. The outcome was a demo cratic republic not a' pure! democ racy.! r-..V. t ; ' - pure.' democracy . wonld'- bo tor be come a radical? .Webster says: radical.; one who advocates v." such changes as ar Intended to level class ineauallties, . la this our day it Is becoming the cus tom to call every one of radical views a - communist.' It Is much less ' bother for a lasy mind than to investigate.; Jesus waa a radical, t To change our form ot govern ment to ja. pure democracy,! wo would assuredly have to do some thing about tho constitution which was strongly influenced in n the making, by advocates for a more centralised form ot government than was finally adopted.' Which was ai compromise, not a "land Udo for domoearey.-f.-ff If, then, one. is for pure dem ocracy why be sanctimonious In regard, to the constitution, v; It seems to me that tho author of "What Is Being- Freo,-is not very democratic in her-attitude toward those who are Just as sin cere In their desire for reform In government as she in her conser- vattsni.

Its resllllence lies in the fact that -in 5 governments determ ined by tho; majority' tho margin: of possible deviation from1 a gen eral lino s is small indeed. Con servative ;' governments succeed liberal ' governmenu, or. radical governments succeed conservative but tho power and real prestige of either rests on tho extent; to which one can" catch up Into; It self and harmonise with ltswowd policy tho reservations of the op position. A ' Labor government in England started Uhe way for greater social security for. tho' ab olition of alums, and a 'conservative- government - carried tho pol icies, further.' It carried them, in- ded, so . far that ; It rebuilt Eng land," and rehoused the nation; and the-result is that on Monday tho British county elections turn ed in an overwhelmingly conserv ative majority.
