LUCY DEL PIANO RITA LANGELLO Alumni Editor—MISS ANN I). SISSON Faculty Advisor—MISS SADIE C. CALLAN EDITORIAL The Green and White goes to press this year at a time of great and momentous crisis in American history. On May 27. 1941 the President of the United States proclaimed the nation to be in a state of unlimited national emergency. Saying that he realized fully the implication of his words, the President stated: We in the Americas will decide for ourselves whether and when and where our American interests are attacked and our security threatened. It would be a fine thing if. in a time of full national emergency, all the people should be in agreement upon national policies and all working toward the same end. But the loud, long and bitter criticism of the administration’s policy which comes to cur ears from many parts of the country shows us that this is not the case. The fallen democracies of Europe tell us that disunity in the time of their great crises was fatal. If this is true, then our first step in strengthening democracy should be to promote and work for national unity. Despite the emergency we still have freedom of speech and opportunity for public discussion. Let us use this freedom wisely. It is possible to respect minorities and those who disagree with the administration’s policies if they are sincere and clear-minded in their thinking. Once, however, our nation has committed itself to a certain policy which represents a majority opinion it is our duty to make that policy a success. If we a citizens do not understand the reasoning which has convinced Congress and the President that the foreign policy which they are following is a wise one. then it is our duty and obligation to try to use every source of information at our command in an attempt to see their viewpoint. It is sometimes easier for the unthinking citizen to see the reasons for criticism than the reasons for the course of action which is being criticized. We believe that greater unity can be achieved in America if every citizen were to follow a program of reasonable, logical, and realistic thinking. Let us not be swayed by wishful thinking, by evasion, and by a refusal to look facts in the face. We believe that democracy, even in an emergency, can give a better account of itself than any other form of government. I-et us hold high the shining torch of this belief.
