Cecil E. Sm ith, superintendent of
C hrism an schools, who presided, es

Sponsored by the Chrism an A m e r

C om m ercial club and the Lions club,
the "fre e do m d a y” is believed to
be the firs t expression by a home
town against regim entation and con
trols.
P rin cip a l speaker was Charles A.
Crowder, editor and publisher of the
F lo ra Sentinel at F lora. 111.
The ed ito r warned against "p re s
ent and ever grow ing threats to con
tro l free speech and a free press
and ra d io ." He said these threats
already have been dem onstrated in
Illin o is and other parts of the na
tion in attem pts to control these free
institutions.
He then outlined four m a jo r
threats against freedom of the press
and radio;
1. P o litic a l control of news through
pressure on editors.
2. Econom ic boycotts by a d ve rtis
ers or other groups seeking to con
tro l the press.
3. J u d ic ia l pressure whereby a
judge could in te rp re t a law to gag
the press.
4. Leg isla tive attem pts to legis

Land of Plenty Found
T h e i r investigating com m ittee
found governm ent land p le n tifu l and
cheap in the new p ra irie state of
Iowa, and the group settled in a
fe rtile valley between the Des
Moines and Skunk rivers.
The
th rifty , reverent Dutch won the re-
pect of other Iowa pioneers, and the
com m unity prospered.
In 1869 four pioneering fa m ilie s set
out to seek new land for settlem ent.
By sw im m ing their m ule teams
across the stream s, and pulling cov
ered wagons through the w a te r on
tow-ropes, they reached a fe rtile
valley between two forks of the
Fioyd riv e r. On th e ir recom m enda
tion. other settlers followed to estab
lish the new com m unity of Orange
C ity.
The tour thousand residents of
Pella today, and the two thousand
inhabitants of Orange C ity, are n ear
ly a ll descendants of the e a rly
Dutch settlers.
Among the ch a r
acteristics they have retained are
tra d itio n a l ho sp ita lity and a love
of tulips. When the two com m unities,
separately, were considering su it
able celebrations to honor th e ir
founding fathers and histo ric tra d i
tions. a tu lip fe stiva l was a natural
choice.
