Sure Cure for Bad Bossism
Brotherhood Is Needed Now!
Brotherhood is a concept that has attracted mankind
for centuries.
It stands in the face of the infinite variety of man's
social, cultural and physical differences, and cuts through
them aU to relate directly to the only real unifying feature of humanity, its sharing of a spiritual nature.
It is thus a concept that ranks as one of man's finest
discoveries.
As such it has tremendous power.
If it has eluded mankind, it is only because man has
permitted his tangible differences to obscure his basic oneness. But this in no way diminishes the force inherent in
the idea.
Any effort, such as Brotherhood Week, made to bring
that force to bear in the solution of grave problems is to
be commended and shared.
Here in America it is especially urgent that we realize
the full meaning of the human family and its implications
in all our lives.
The fact that old prejudices and gnarled hatreds
divide groups, block entry by minorities into the full range
of social and economic life, and disrupt the normal intercourse natural to a democracy is proof enough that the
power of the brothei-hood idea is needed now more than
ever before.
To admit of Brotherhood as a fact, to live Brotherhood
as a practice, and to accept the responsibilities that such a
course entails, is to participate in the very life that the
United States of America has made possible, and for
which it exists.
Cuban Responsibility
One of the distinguishing marks of a government
that truly represents the people is a deep concern for
individual rights. Another hallmark of representative
government is the zealous preservation of legal process.
Judged by these standards, the government established by Fidel Castro and his fellow revolutionaries in Cub:>
does not measure up well. It is a sad, troubling thing that
this must be said, for many who love freedom and human
dignity had looked upon Castro as their champion against
the dictatorship of Fulgencio Batista.
Castro and his band of supporters did send Batista into
exile; that is to their everlasting credit. The wave of bloody
vengeance that has followed is not to their credit, nor
was Castro's inflammatory appeal to the passions of the
vast crowd assembled to hear him in Havana.
Due allowance must be made for the feelings of the
multitudes who suffered under Batista's heel. If Cubans
thirst for vengeance against those who collaborated with
their oppressors, they cannot be blamed for that. Some
of Batista's henchmen were guilty, without question, of
sadistic crimes that must not go unpunished.
But does this justify rabble-rousing and demagoguery?
Does this justify drumhead trials and mass executions?
Does this justify wild-eyed charges against all who protest
summary justice, without due process of law, for "war
criminals ?"
We think not. We think .Fidel Castro and those who
stand with him at the helm of power would do well to
put aside their guns and set about the serious business
of fashioning a responsible government for Cuba.
