WEDNESDAY, \A!PRIL 18, 1962 lOo Per Copy Two Two- Freedom And Youth A long* time ago, Thomas Jefferson said: "We shall not fear to follow wherever truth may lead, nor to tolerate error; so long- as reason is left free to combat it." This has become, in practice, the American way of honest men dealing with each other even'though they held opposite convictions. Many things are debatable in the world of today, but the value of freedom is not debatable. Proof enough of the value of Freedom is that in everyone's mind the first punishment to be inflicted on a man convicted of crime against society is to' deprive him of his freedom. Freedom is the breath of life — tlie very air of existence. It is the most worthy state of being attainable. Freedom is priceless, even when temporary. How heartening it is, to see around us tlie signs that the young people of America — the;hope of our future — are bestirring themselves in freedom's cause. Youth is on it's way. Youth is determined to go j somewhere and, if properly guided, youth will g0 in the right direction. Who can resist the inquisitiveness, freshness, and1 enthusiasm of children and teenagers?.They will ask a thousand and one questions about subjects in which they become interested, and those who are older will be hard-hearted indeed or very, very dull if they fail-to 'apply themselves to learn intelligent answers to the questions placed before them. It is fortunate that for such, answers the truth will serve the best purpose of all. Truth and the wonderful'idea of Freedom will satisfy our young questioners and;will offset the half-truths, deceptions, and doubletalk to which are are constantly exposed. We can take a leaf from the notebook of the enemies of freedom -and make our invitations to youth both appealiiii and exciting. Youth .is not mcuueu io ue apatnetic, and truly the impatience of youth with apathy is golden. Youth iwants to take a side. It is here, in the absence of lethargy, that youth can become the magic weapon, the asset* of incomparable value, the priceless factor which has been so badly needed in the task of marshalling* the forces that will save Freedom. When we harness the exuberance of youth •to the pro-freedom chariot, we are getting r e a d y to go places. In this time of crisis, apathy, toward the issues thai confront us in a dull, misused, tarnished, armor of laziness and ignorance, of unwillingness to resist atrocities, and of nearly eager willingness to accept bondage and tyranny. The complacent or apathetic American is helping the enemy do his work. Let us then, by all means, go everywhere we can to reach our young* people and enlist them in this good fight. If they need help and guidance, we who are older than they need their enthusiasm and fresh insight. We can pull together to turn back the anti-freedom forces that plot to destroy us — and it will be the most deeply rewarding endeavor an which we have ever engaged.

Mayor Proclaims Who's They? I remember once, when I was tiny, I was telling my grandmother something that to me was most important. To emphasize my point, I said, as I'd heard the grown-ups say: "And it is all true, because they say it's so." I can just see the way she laughed and shook her head and said: "Now, now, child. And who's 'they'?" As is usual in a congressional election year, "they" are doing a lot of talking. Rumors and conversational tidbits of confidential information are going the rounds from one person to another, losing nothing in the repeating. And the source is usually "they" — or in Washington, "an authoritative source." This is nothing new in American political history — but when you add to it the tense international situation, and the eye*-focusing position of the United States, the situation becomes more serious. W§. may discount what we hear — but will the rest of the world. discount 'what we say? Rumor is like a grass fire, starting from a spark dropped carelessly/and blazing a devastating track across miles of countryside. The time to stop it is when it starts. And one of the most effective ways to do this is, whem ever, "they" are quoted, to ask "Who's they?" If it is authentic information, then "they" are indentifiable. If tht source remains cloaked in secrecy, then ask yourseh "Whom does it profit to have this story told?" When you really do. some serious thinking on that last question, you will come up with some surprising results! For the past half century .we have seen what devastation the dictators of both left and right have wrought by the skillful use of rumors. Rumors have been — and art still being — used with as deadly skill as the deployment of armies by a military strategist. To be foi'ewarned, is to be forearmed. So be sure of the source of what you hear before you repeat it. You may be serving an enemy when you repeat a rumor carelessly. Or in the words of the old country saying — "It ain't the things you don't know what gets you into trouble; it's -the things you know for sure what ain't so," Who's they.?.
