“Without self-restraint and a cer­
tain chivalry in public men the demo­
cratic system
of government will
crack under the fierce
pressure of
contemporary events,” wrote Walter
Llppmann recently.
"Thus, one of
the indubitable causes of the ruin of
France was the savagery with which
the politicians attacked one another
and intrigued against one another.
Not only did the fury of their parti­
sanship lender Impossible a coherent
and effective policy; the manner in
which public men aasussinated
the
honor of public men bred a cynicism
and contemptuous indifference which
devitalized the people."
Our nation has witnessed some dis­
tressing examples of this lately, such
as the names hurled at Colonel Lind­
bergh for expression of Ills views In
his recent speech on the European
situation.
And when General
Per­
shing urged that we give Britain 50
destroyers to aid In her defense, he
received similar treatment. These are
men who have done more for their
country than 991 out of 1,000 of their
crltica.
Yet, because some did not
agree with their views, they are
abused unreasonably.
In contrast with this is an incident
which occurred in Des Molneo. Sec­
retary Wallace, Democratic candidate
for the vice-presidency,
was booed
and
heckled while attempting to
make an address.
He was followed
by Republican presidential candidate
Wendell Wlllkle—who
soundly
re­
buked the audience for its shameful
treatment of his opponent.
It Is a
cardinal principle of democracy that
all sides be heard—and that the aim ’
privilege of free expression be extend­
ed to those with whom we disagre«.
no lava thun to those with whom we
agree. Let that principle perish and
democracy perishes. If We are to be
permittee! to hear only the voices of
those representing one side, we will
have dictatorship.
No nation can afford cheap, narne-
culllng politics—the* kind of politics
that makes for hatred and disunion
and which sets class against class and
neighbor against neighbor.
clean boys.
Who answer the cull of God, and
Country, to fight;
Fight for freedom, to all the world;
Freedom of
Religion, of speech, of life. They
fight for right.
