With this Issue of The En
terprise. we start our 16th
year as publishers of this
weekly newspaper. The past
15 years have been filled with
ups and downs, the same as
all other small businesses,
but on the whole it has been
a rewarding experience. Dur
ing these years we have seen
many changes, not only in our
own area, but in the world.
When we came up here at
that time, we heard very lit
tle about the various marches,
campus demonstrations, hip
pies, and all the rest of the
sordid mess we find ourselves
in these days.
This Thursday we celebrate
Independence Day. It is a far
cry from what it was supposed
to be when we broke away
from the domination of Eng
land. On Independence Day,
1968, it might be well for us
to remind ourselves that the
freedom which we commem
orate is not self-perpetuating.
It is something we must work
for, conscientiously and con
tinuously, even as did our
forefathers. They were ready
to die for freedom; can we
do lees than strive to nurture
and protect it?
We have too many people
these days who are willing to
chip away, little by little,
these freedoms we cherish
most. Even in our colleges,
many of which to me appear
to be fostering socialism,
from the faculty on down to
a minority of the students. I
think when we finally get
around to putting the screws
to these riots and other acts
of violence against authority,
we should make a clean
sweep. We must sooner or
later get back on the track
of respect for the laws of
our land—and begin chopping
away at those who do not
feel they have to obey the
laws. If we continually let
hippies roam our country,
and rioters to loot and burn
just because they feel they
are not getting a fair shake
in our complex society, we
will finally deteriorate into
a second-rate nation, and
that would be a calamity.
