It is particularly true now, with so much of the world under the clouds of racial depression and dictatorships. | President Roosevelt took advantage of the oppor- tunity when he addressed a joint meeting of the House and Senate, marking the 150th anniversary of the meeting of the first Congress. cubic feet of waters of dissension have gone over | the dam since March, 1789, between the assembling of the first Congress under the Constitution and this meeting of the 76th, But through the years, as the President happily recalls, the old principles remain and the old es stand. | These facts a; mportant at any time; they are important at a moment like this in world | Jistc Much of the difference between life in democratic America and life in the totalitarian | ries may be explained in terms taken from | Constitution and given life and meaning by successive Congresses chosen by a free people's free | ballot | Timely, therefore. the presidential emphasis put on this peculiarly American privilege of choosin, whom we will to make our laws and administer them.: When voters went to the polls four months ago to| elect a new Congress they were given no mandate as| to whom they should select, though the pre-el?cuon[ air was filled with advice and appeal. | How this freedom contrasts with some of the | elections” abroad in recent years, Mr. Roosevelt | caves to inference, In truth, the inference is too| obvious to require elucidation. As electors we Ameri- make plenty of mistakes. Even the privilege of them is worth defending as a part of the tic heritage. b No one better than a President beginning the last wo years of an eight-year regime knows the full asure of the implications of free speech and free President Washington felt their sting and resident Roosevelt feels it; the one no more than he other. Nor can one in these days ignore another im- ant guarantee of freedom which the Bill of ts of the Constitution vouchsafes—freedom of religion. Properly the President gives this special hasis. The “right to worship God in one’s own is a right to cherish and respect at all times. Its importance becomes a major theme of democracy ver vast a abroad the fires of racial and persecut burn in fury and millions of itled to freedom are hunted like wild crea- through the es of destroyed hope. As long as these and the other tees of the 11 of Rights of the Constitution remain intact, democracy in America remains, regardless of the e of high ideals abroad.

It uld be ortunate, however, should the referen- dum schen be seized upon as a means of insulating the United States from the dangers of Europe, be- cause there is good’reason to fear that it might only complicate those dangers.
