o o f 'M f' In 'H A :Y i Mn. DANILOVICH n f W1 gtg? T M ff-mocracy's enduring struggle with H'J' 7 totalitarianism has passed from gg .dthe acute to the decisive stage. f 4f?Upon how this struggle is resolved will rest the future -,wlg'f9fA interpretations of international relationships, domestic economy, civil rights, intercultural relations, political and reli- gious freedom. To carry this fight to a successful conclusion, the democracies must rely upon their most potent weapon: its citizenry who have been educated in its free institutions. The great truths studied in our democratic education institutions must be put to work firmly and fearlessly. These truths must be harnessed affirma- tively. Much energy has been dissipated among our own leaders with the negative approach of recrimination, character assassination, fear of promulgation of new ideas because of what may happen to their prestige and jobs. Those hallowed democratic ideas which have held us in good stead in the face of great problems in the past should be re-affirmed. We must fight authoritarianism.with our finest democratic weapons. By our acts we shall be known, so it behooves us to work with might and main in the area of civil liber- ties, racial equality, religious tolerance, promotion of the wel- fare of all people on all levels. We must be unafraid of any and all ideas. New ideas, worked into the web of our democratic state, have given us progress and substance before, and will again, if we retain fully and without brakes those sacred democratic rights to discuss, hypothesize, experiment, and reconstruct our ideas in the face of changing facts. We cannot fail to re-establish the high hopes so much of the rest of the world had in democratic ideals if we show by words and acts and precepts and facts that here we ob- tain in our everyday life-the ideals of the dignity and worth of man.
