Americans this week are celebra

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

have taken precedence over the pa
triotic speeches and parades of by
gone days. Much can be said for the

American people are eaciasta and

are running, no one Know but their
flight leads them in a circuitous
route that eventually returns to their
tarting point of toil and worry.
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.
There is evidence that many of

our present-day laws — local, state
and federal — are in complete con
trast to those principles laid down
by the signers o f the Declaration of
Independence.
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.
