OUR DEFENDERS OF FREEDOM To you who gove some of the most precious yeors of life to the preservation of American freedom, I dedicate this page. Your presence on our campus has stimulated every college activity. Improvement is apparent in standards of scholarship, personal conduct, social clubs and learned societies, journalism, drama, music, athletics and other fields. You have won our confidence and admiration. We thought, as you must have thought too, that the fighting of World War II would not only make our freedoms more secure but would also guarantee our kind of freedom to other peoples. But we have found that more people have lost their freedom than have gained it. Tyranny, dictatorship, famine, and human misery are more widespread today than they were in 1940. You fought for freedom with machine guns and tanks, airplanes and artillery. And, to a large degree, you succeeded. The world without your efforts would be unthinkably barbaric. But I believe that there is another way to fight for freedom—for the freedoms that are still missing in the world today. The better, wiser way for today, is a peaceful war for freedom. How can you take part this peaceful war? Day by day, in your homes and classrooms—in your lives, you can keep alive those qualities that have always distinguished a free land: friendliness, fair play, good humor, love and respect for your fellow man. So long as those qualities l:ve, democracy and freedom will live. Your College hopes, in a small way, to help you in this peaceful war for freedom. In this effort all of us together cannot fail. Your sons and daughters deserve a better heritage than that which you received Let us work and live to make sure that they get it. STEWART H. SMITH President of Marshall College Page Six
