To a Heitor World A Parting Thought From the Editors “The time is out of joint; O cursed spite, That ever I was born to set it right.'' Of course Shakespeare had the wherewithal to express this thought perfectly, hut they are the very words which confront us at this time. The lecture has become so dull from repetition that it no longer provokes any thought on our part. However, it is time to bestir ourselves from our lethargy and give serious thought to it. We are living in the most complex period in history, and our generation has the job of putting the world hack together again or letting it fall into little pieces. The interest we take in world affairs today is the base-rock on which we begin to build tomorrow. We must learn how to fight corruption, banish War and, above all, instill free enterprise in our thoughts as well as in our economics. The Declaration of Independence guarantees all Americans, “life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.” We are attempting to apply these concepts to the rest of the world. Note that ‘'life” is listed first. Ideals are fine but they can’t take root on an empty stomach. Democracy is wonderful, but it can’t begin where there is no home. Therefore, we must feed the open mouths, shelter the shivering bodies, and give empty hands the means for gaining a livelihood. Where their basic needs are satisfied, they can begin looking towards democracy as a way of life. Then we shall he in a position to advise them, not dictate to them, on political and economic affairs. Let us take this world that we have inherited and mold it into a place where security and freedom blend for harmonious living. CAROL-LYN FELDMAN and SUE SCHULMAN 8
