The MILL CITY ENTERPRISE 2—THE MILL CITY ENTERPRISE "JOE BEAVER mand more “Americanism” in the schools think first of such superficial evidence as the display of flags, the saluting of flags, the memorizing of 19th century patriotic verse, the rev­ erence of Washington The Father of Our Country, and so on. Much more important is that Amer­ ican children be taught the principles of the Bill of Rights, and shown how these old and splendid ideals can, should, and sometimes are not, applied in modern, every-day lift. Otherwise we are already well on the way—not j to the socialist state that some profess j to foresee for America—but to the police state, which must inevitably follow when the people will tolerate , its tyrannies. When Americans are . “for” obtaining confessions by torture and "for” search without warrant and i “for” censorship of the press, make ' no mistake these dread advance agents of tyranny will come.—From The Ore­ gon Statesman.

S. Rep. Samuel Yorty (D., Calif.) says that Secretary of Agriculture Benson is trying to unload the butter on the Armed Forces—selling to them for 16 cents per pound, the butter for which the government paid 65 cents per pound. Says Yorty: “If it is neces­ sary to subsidize dairy farmers with tax money, then we should in all fair­ ness let the taxpayers use the foods purchased with their money. When the stored butter begins to grow rancid, the Secretary will have a real scandal on his hands; the program itself is already rancid. The public buys oleomargarine and the Agricul­ ture department buys butter with the public’s money." • • • Recruit for “Fade-Away Club": Another top military man has joined the ranks of big business a wonder­ ful place to fade away.
