Ts it possible that our civic consciousness may rise so high in the future as to regard him | likewise a coward or traitor or enemy of democracv? Tt is certainly a safo very undesirable sort of citizen, but keeping with his undesirableness. Some Responsibilities Definite. ‘During the war period there have sponsibility of each one to he loyal, in word and spirit to America, our country. It was discovered that the need of stimulating and cementing this loyalty was of essential impor- tance. The responsibility to render service was presented in so many ways by draft laws, by food regula- tions by demands for maximum pro- duction, by appeals for gigantic loans and for generous gifts that the habit of service to the nation’s cause be- came contagious. The duty was so definite that it was comparatively easy to respond. Others Easily Overlooked. “But when it comes to a moral respousibility the duty is less obvious, because it is not so definite and con- crete. The unthinking will not only disregard but will often deny the existence of such a duty. Already the war and all its attendant prob- lems a& settled and due to receive a prompt dismissal from considera- | tion. The people of such views are zpparently disposed to have all the | old prejudices, stupidities, confusions and injustices re-instated as though they were simply normal and neces- sary. They would even label a con- scious and deliberate attempt to re- duce some of these as a fad or in- novation. It is merely a confession | of their own short sightedness to em- ploy a ibboleth to discredit what is progressive and constructive be- vond their understanding. Here is the application of their responsibility to become intelligently informed. Disregarding Intelligence. “To be democratic one must think in terms of dermocracy and act in the s.me spirit of the common good. The negative of this is the spirit of dom- ination and of intolerance, and one need not look far te find it.
