Did You Know
We Have -
the sixties. to undermine lawfully-constituted
authority and to extend virtual immunity to de-
structive elements of every type. Large portions of
the news media, especially electronic journalism,
have fallen into the hands of committed ideologues
who abandon all fairness in reporting the news.
In the sixties, voter rolls in many states were
packed with the nttmes of persons who are lacking
.in education and who are incompetent to understand
the issues of the day.- The influence of taxpaying,
propertied, responsible citizens has declined in many
dties and states.
- r ;
Nothing has been done in the sixties to curb the
labor unions that constitute a virtual state within
a state, who openly hi*ag of their power to disrupt
communities, cripple public services, and paralyze
industries. Ironically, their ruthless use of power
against the public is financed in large measure by
money coerced from their members or deemed tax-
exempt by the ^aws of the nation;
.........r ' • -
As the sixties end, Americans' have cause for
fearing for the fate of the Republic. There’s no mis-
take about it; the Republic is in grave danger. Ap-
archy must be arrested early in the 1970s or revolu-
tion will sweep the land — sweep away the benefits
of America’s traditional freedoms. The universities
must be cleansed of the nihilists, the nothingness-
worshipers who would rather burn than study. The
pulpits of the land must be filled once again by men
of a spiritual nature — men who have put aside
politics. The appeasers of the New Left must be re-'
moveiLfrom* Congress by the electorate. The rulers
of the union tyrannies must be brought to justice
and their power over the public stripped from them,
The seventies will tell whether the American
Republic will survive, whether this historic experi-
ment in representative government can endure in
ah age of totalitarianism. The “sijent majority”
wants the Republic to survive and liberty to endure.
But this majority miist end its silence. It must speak
up. It mu^t be activist in defense of liberty and in-
dividual enterprise. It must insist on abandonment
of alien creeds. In the decade ahead, th< American
people will need all their moral resources in the
struggle .to save the Republic from the enemies with-
in. " hi
