All that Democracy has stood tor- treedom of speech, a free press, Wide opportunities tor intellectual growth-has been a part of this nation since its inception. And our schools are an important part of that which we call Democracy. Events abroad have only increased our de- termination that the schools go on building and strengthening tor citizenship, fighting for that spirit of Democracy so necessary to progress.

oyall 0 ur I: ag s ol Dehalahle ln his opening address to the assembled teachers last fall, Superintendent Montgomery voiced the de- termination of every administrator and instructor in the Phoenix school system to do all that is possible to achieve national unity, forming a solid front against the forces that are unfriendly to our Democratic institu- tions. Let us remember, declared the superintendent, that there is no room in America for Naziism, Fascism, or Communism. Loyalty to our Flag is certainly not a debatable question for Americans. We, as teachers in the American public schools, should always make every possible effort to inculcate true Americanism and support of the Constitution of the United States and all the principles for which it stands. Certainly, a more loyal, enthusiastic, and scholastically superior group of teachers cannot be found on an American high school campus. We are proud of our association with such outstanding men and women. They have contributed much that is beneficial, real, and lasting in our lives. EDUCATION is big business, and it takes skilled business people to keep the wheels of our huge factory Well oiled.
