I pledge myself to be “wary” of those who make “pie in the sky” promises about what they will do for me with no effort on my part, and place more support to those who express more faith in me to accomplish things for myself and my associates. I pledge myself to view with suspicion those who place blame for woes upon sweeping general izations: “society”, “white power”, “black power”. The United States is made up of individuals not “blocs.’ Most of the more fine, responsible, upstanding citizens, and those who aren’t must be encour aged or prodded to become so. I am an Angry American, but I believe that by more effort on my part and the cooperative added efforts of the many millions who are angry about many of these things I have outlined, we can achieve some cure for these ills.—The Myrtle Creek Mail.
