Wc in America have democ racy but we have taken it for granted much too long. It's about lime the people of the United States awakened and got busy pro tecting our rights and freedoms. Most of us have probably read in our history books about the Roman Empire. It covered all the land around the Mediterranean Sea and far inland. But, the Romans fell asleep; and before they knew it, there was no more Roman Empire. Wc should take that story as a reminder, and do nl! we can as American citizens to keep this country free and a symbol for democracy throughout the world. We inherited our democracy from our forefathers who fought for Ibis country and made it what it is today. The pilgrims came lo this country because they were tired of being pushed around and made to go to a certain church. This was a law. They were not allowed to say or print anything aqainst the leaders, because they would be thrown in prism or have their heads chopped off. After we won the Revolutionary War, our forefathers put a great deal of time and effort into this country to make it the way the people wanted it. They used their knowledge and learning and some of the examples of good govern ment, patterned after that of the Romans and Greeks. They put in law here, and took out a phrase there, until It was what the people wanted a democracy. But, that wasn't or isn't the end We the people of the United Slates today must use every pow cr we have to keep this govern ment a democracy. We must vote.

I I SO , I I W IIS oo when possible, to elect a person we know is capable of turning out his best work for our cause and not for his own benefit. To me, democracy is America. William Rose Benet describes America and what it means to us in just a few sentences. "America means good neigh bors. It meant that long be fore we had a national good-neigh bor policy. Good neighbors are neighbors who are not only people of good will toward you, but pen pie who have their own self-re spect and their own independence. In general, they're against any one's being pushed around." Yes, to me, William Rose Benet describes America perfectly. This democracy of ours is something that dictator-ruled people dream about and hope for. To me, America is eating good food, having fun, having good friends to visit with and traveling freely. But later, it's reading in the newspapers or books, or hearing on radio or television about Pearl Harbor and Wake Island and Bataan and Corregidor, and the Solomons and Tunisia and the Aleutians; and how everywhere in those far places, American boys named Jack and Karl and Chuck ana lony are saying, O.K. you guys; this is up to us now. Let's go." Don't forget that America is our promise to those boys, We have taken America and our democracy for granted too long. We must keep America free and democratic as a memorial for all the boys who died for it, so that it might live on. If we do all we can to keep America a democracy. hoys like Jack and Chuck and Karl and Tony will be proud to say, "I fought and will die for a free country, a democracy of the first class. I'm ready to do all I can for America to keep it free and demo cratic. I live in and love America. That's why I Speak For Democ. racy. Seven Still Af Large In Carolina Prison Break IVY BLUFF, N. C.

The 12 surrendered without a struggle in Virginia and Ohio aft er hardly 48 hours of freedom They escaped Tuesday from the Ivy Bluff maximum security pris on here. A huge manhunt focused on an area 20 miles west of Roanoke, Va., where several of the es capees were believed surrounded The FBI said Charles W. Stewart, one of the desperate ringleaders in the daring breakout, might be in the pocketed group. Local officers and the FBI corralled eight of the original 20 in Virginia. Robert Lee Council, 30, Fayette ville, N. C, Negro serving 20-25 years for armed robbery, was taken as he walked along a high way near Rustburg, Va., this morning. Earlier, four others were cap tured in Cambridge, Ohio. One was taken Tuesday in North Car olina. Still at large were Stewart, 52. Wilmington, N. C, serving 25 years for armed robbery and storebreaking; Johnny Miller, 26 Albemarle, N. C, 9 years for ar son and manslaughter; John Kil- borne, 34, Winston-Salem, N. C, 28 years for robbery with fire arms and storebreaking; Wiley Cummings, 34, Winston - Salem, N. C, 15-20 years, breaking and entering and robbery; Woodrow Stewart, 36, Boone, N. C, 18-20 years, highway rob bery and escape; Willie Shaw, 29, Rougemont, N. C, Negro, life for rape; and Cleveland McNeill, 27, Fuquay Springs, N. C, Negro, 15 years assault, housebreaking and escape. In quick succession, authorities captured two of the escapees near Ruckersville, Va., three near Pilot, Va., and two near Lynchburg. Va. Taken near Pilot were James W. Strickland, 34, of Columbia, S.C., serving life for burglary; William Vaughn, 3!), Halifax Coun- ly, Va., serving life for murder; and Douglas Anderson, 24, Atlanta, Ga., serving life for kidnaping. James Edward Christy, 26, of Concord, N.C., and Ralph Byers, 27, of Winston-Salem, N.C., were he and Byers were armed with ;i3 caliber pistols but offered no resistance. Christy was serving 19-25 years for breaking and entering and manslaughter: and Byers 35-42 years for robbery with firearms and auto theft. Taken in the Lynchburg area were Walter Brown Spears, 30, Greensboro, N.C., Negro serving 15-35 years lor larceny; and Har vey Murchinson, 26, Willow Springs, N.C., Negro, serving 21 years breaking, entering, armed robbery and escape. The trio captured at Pilot, the FBI said, had held Jonas Soures hostage in a vacant house. He was freed unharmed when police swooped down on the men. Earlier, Leslie Gaulier, 28, Fai son, N.C.; Hilliary Inman, 24, Kings Mountain, N.C., Grady Stone, 23, Lumberlon, N.C., and Glenn Hcnsley, 35, Asheville, N.C., were captured at Cam bridge. Charles Edwards, 28, Gastonia, N.C., was captured only a few hours after Tuesday's smoothly- handled escape at Ivy Bluff. Stone, after his capture in Ohio, said the men fled the institution because "they just couldn't stand it down there. When I escaped, f got my first coke and candy bar in 19 months."

Main TU 4-3134 Meanwhile, reports flowed in from Memphis, Tenn., South Nor folk, Va., and New York that broadened the search over the eastern half of the country, At Memphis, Mr. and Mrs. Clar ence Wortham said four men who indicated they might be among the 20 entered their home at knife point Wednesday. The woman, who is 53, said she was raped, but police Capt. W. W. Wilkinson said hospital tests showed no evi dence of rape. He said he was puzzled over parts of the couple's story. South Norfolk police quickly searched a railroad area after strangers were reported and New York police were on the lookout for two strange cars seen in that area. And In Raleigh, State Prisons Director W. F. Bailey said his top field assistant, W. M. Lilly, had been ordered to investigate Tues day's escape from the tough pris on. Bailey said Lilly was instruct ed to "let the chips fall where they may." Bailey fired three guards at Ivy Bluff two for negligence and a third for admitting a newsman to the prison after the escape. Further action, Bailey said, hinges on Lilly's report.
