Along The EDITOR'S BEET Americans this week are celebra ting the signing of the Declaration of Independence and with the Fourth falling on Friday, a triple holiday will be enjoyed in most parts of the nation. There are frequent protests that formal celebrations are becoming and that fishing and excursions have taken precedence over the pa triotic speeches and parades of by gone days. Much can be said for the ¡old-fashioned celebrations that I marked the anniversary of this I country's severewe of allegiance to Great Britain Any school boy ex periences a certain amount of un conscious thrill when he reads or hears about the parades and Fourth of July speeches extolling the Amer ican republic and the events leading up to its founding. In modern Uine._ such celebrations are a part of his tory rather than current events.

In spite of fast cars that In a few hours can take them distances 50 times greater than the signers of the Declaration of Independence could travel in a week, and even with labor-saving machinery and conveniences, the average American is burdened with far greater toil >.han were his forefathers of 1776 "Old-fashioned celebrations" here or anywhere else probably would not return the spirit of "76 to the Am er ican people. They refuse to accept any of the responsibility for present- day problems and are inclined to accuse "politicians" of the muddle this nation is in They are forgetting their American history and ignoring the fact that the politicians are themselves and that those immortal documents of the late 18tli century give them powers and privileges never enjoyed by any other people. Those men who signed the Declar ation of Independence 176 years ago and who were largely responsible for our Constitution and the Bill of Rights were not in complete agree ment on principles. They spoke for the people with the same degree of authority given our public ser vants of today, but the people were ready to speak out. Even though the average person of the 18th century was considered "less literate” than the 20th century American, they had a sense o f moral obligation and they knew what they wanted They wanted freedom and they wanted a republic with a gov ernment having sufficient powers to guarantee their freedom. The Amer ican people then were fearful of government control and the usurpa tion o f the rights they gained in coming to this continent. They were extremely conscious o f the tyran nical rule of England. Today we hear the protests of in dividuals and groups who long for the good old days when the power of government was used only as a moderator. The argument that laws should be for the majority has sound reasoning, but the people are the ones responsible for the increas ing number of laws that aid the minority and strangle the majority.

The U S Constitution which fol lowed the Declaration of Indepen dence, was a masterpiece framed for the protection o f individuals from the possible Tyranny o f any grouu. j In many instances the guarantees of freedom are ignored by those who [ would have more power and they are forgotten by those who can eas ily lose their freedom. Usurpation o f power is as evident in state governments as it is in the federal government, but here again it is caused by the apathy o f the people who this year would have one extra day to give some thought to the meaning o f the Declaration of Independence.
