Certainly we have delegated an unusual amount of authority in the Federal Government. ‘With each new function given it has come an orgauization to carry it out. There has been a multiplication of bureaus until the average citi- zen has lost all conception of their number. Coincident with this development there has been a weakening of the State governments. Instead of a central government just strong enough to link the individual States together, we have one whose authority and activities extend into every in- dustry, trade, profession and walk of life. With this has come a individual initiative, a submersion of individual independence and free- dom, each of which was very largely the source of the country’s material and spiritual greatness. These are some of the subjects we can expect @ @ E loss of to hear discussed in the next few months. It i8 mot a sign of a lack of patriotism if we shall consider them scriously. Rather to refuse to do so, to blindly acc the present status unquestionably, would merely be a sign of nar- rowness which should not be confused wih pa- triotism. The founding fathers builded wisely, the events of the past century and a half are evidence of that. If we are to continue in their footsteps, it can only be done by intelligently following wise leadership. Blind acceptance of any leadership must lead sooner or later to disaster, and eventual loss of that individual and personal liberty that was strong enough in 76 to lead the colonists to revolt from the mother country and set up a government of their own dedicated to the inalienable rights of “life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.” LET'S MAKE IT AN ANNUAL.
