FRIDAY, MARCH 11,1949 THE NATION TODAY imericans Should Re-examine Democratic Ideals and Weigh lealities in War on Communism By Mtrlow WASHINGTON, March 10. M'j-Presldcnt Truman snys It's through alone that Western people can right Communism. "We must have Inspired from tneii earliest years with HID ideals o( democracy," lie said In talk Rollins College Fin. It would have helped If he had been a mile more specltlc on how (he Inspiring Is done, or Die form sucli education should lake.

A Kr.r T' Sunday tO bU Ihe will bcJlove either without tlilnk- Iliig If he's the kind thai ncceptn without examining (hem. I That'i hardly sound training for I future leadership In democracy. As an example: I The Declaration of Independence I has shining phrases about, all men I created equal and the inalienable iRht to liberty. Since those words were written I in 1716 generations of Americans I have reciled them lustily or had I them dinned into their as I fact ol American life. Started As Men), Nol Fact But liberty was only an Ideal, not i fact, for many for almost lot) I years alter the words were writ- I ten.

There were slaves here when I they were written here until th civil War. And even now, for a lot of Amer- I leans who shout about democracy, 1 the Idea that all men are created I equal is not a fact at all. 1 But I wonder how many boys, or present, busy memorizing words, have thought of the dif- I ference between the ideal and the 1 realities. I And wonder how many teach- I ers have been acute enough, or fcli I deeply enough about It, to point out I the difference to them. Mouthing the Ideals, without a ing the realities or understanding I them, seems to me a feeble education in democracy.

As an Ideal, ol course, the declaration was Important, and still U. But equally Important is this; That is early as the year 1776 it could have been written at all. Fjr written so'early, it shaped our liis- 1 tory. Behind the writing was the long history of mankind and the slow, developing Idea that individual freedom Is necessary lor a good so! clety. Critical of Tcacheri Few schoolboys are taught any of i that, but if they knew the history, they might appreciate more the 1 value of liberty.

I wonder how many at i least below the college level, know enough about it themselves to tench For that matter, I wonder how many schools, Including colleges, I put any eniphn.su; at all on teach- i ing the history of political philosophy. Us in that rich field that American students can obtain a rcul foundation for understanding the importance of human freedom. Unless you know the roots behind the slogan, it seems to me it would be easier to hire a. phonograph to repeat the slogans. Communists long ago discarded the Idea of personal freedom for people.

It would have Interfered with the complete control they wanted to shape the kind ol society wanted. Communism here probably would have been far less attractive for some ol the Americans who Joined it. If they had been grounded in the history of political Ideas and the struggle for freedom. It's been a. long, tough struggle, will continue to be.

A would- be Communist who doesn't understand and feel that, may turn lo the party out impatience with the American society as he sees It at this minute. Employment Service Manager Nominated J. M.
