Intrigue of this nature had its
beginnings in Europe. The favor
of the court or the ear of the dic
tator was gained in this manner.
Ax grinding was a custom of Eu
ropean politics at its worst. France
is a shining example. It stands
today a victim of the ax grinders.
More important, this pastime is
unAmerican and undemocratic.

Dally we are told that democ
racy ix at at.ike. If it is. then let’s
quit grinding axes and start
sharpening »words. We have a
great task ahead it we are to pre
serve democracy. In fact, it is
one of the most gigantic tasks ever
to face a nation. Our task is
twofold; first, to produce the arms
and ammunition to make the Unit
ed States sate from the attack of
any nation or group of nations.
■Second, to decide the proper poli
cies to ire carried out with regard
to aid to Great Britain and carry
them out with the utmost effi
ciency. When are these things in
need of accomplishment?
The
obvious answer is NOW! Can this
uphill task of producing billions
of dollars worth of ammunition
.nd equipment, with so little time
left in which to do it, be accom
plished with the handicap of peo
ple applying the brake to the
wheel of uction because they have
an ax to grind? The answer is
again equally obvious. Not a min
ute can we afford to lose. Every
hour is precious. This is no time
for log jams to stand in the way
of a supreme effort to preserve
democracy for a great people.
Maneuvering and devious ways
should be outlawed. Democracy
can only lie preserved by straight
forward, frank and open methods.
Democracy was founded on the
basic premise that wisdom could,
be found in the composite think
ing of the people of a nation. Un
der true democracy you and I are
given credit for sound judgment
and practical opinions. Our ad
vice and thoughts are to be sought
in a frank manner because all to
gether we comprise what is known
us the American people. We have
a common will which is an Amer
ican way of life. We have a com
mon determination which is the
preservation of a democratic way
of life.
When government permits pres
sure groups to sell it on the idea
that facts should be doctored or
withheld from the people because
they might not understand, or that
people should be regulated by law
■>r administrative decisions they
don’t want because a pressure
group decided it's good for them,
lhen it’s time to face the cold fact
that democracy has ceased to
function.
