A great truth about my native land has Just been impressed on me by an ancient Bui' garlan dweller whom I encountered way up along the foothills of the wild Balkan mountains. When he was told by my guide and Interpreter In his own language that I was an American, a smile of approval spread over rugged features which woro bronzed and wrinkled by the suns and winds of 78 years, rou'rs very lucky." he told me through our Interpreter. "The Unit, ed States Is a wonderful country.' Not Well Posted I was surprised and Interested to learn that he had even hnrd of our nation, for he was a primitive man of the hills. He was tending cattle near the road over which we passed. His quaintly cut native garb was so patched In all parts that It looked like a crazy quilt. We pressed a bit to find out how much this simple peasant might know about far away America. It wasn't much. He couldnt say wnctner it was a republic or a mon archy. "That doesn't matter." he Insisted doggedly with a shake of his grey neaa. .i'The United States Is a wonderful country where people aro happy and prosperous." That wns all he knew about us, but the aged Bulgarian's simple faith In America capped the feeling of gratitude which has been steadily growing on me since r have been touring the European dictatorships. It Isn't merely the fact our stand ard of living and social development are far superior to those of most parts of the old world which makes me glad of my nationality. It Is be eauae we are free of those regimen tations which press down upon peo ples of the totalitarian states so that even their thoughts are forced through dictator-made grooves. Beaent Mental Iteln Maybe the position lim't quite log ical, but I believe It Is the mental regimentation which people dislike more than any other aspect of the dictatorships. Some of the dictators are credited with doing fine work for their people, but the Intellectual portions of the populations, while perhaps approving of many of the regimes' accomplishments, resent In tensely not even being permitted to consider plana In advance of en actment. It's the old story of taxation (and regimentation) without representa tion. It's the old story of many Americans under prohibition Insist ing on tho right to drink even If they didn't want to. The peoples of yie dictatorships, generally speaking, live In a hush hueh atmosphere. They dare not voice opinions about the government, especially the dictator.
