hurries needed for 200
million. Oh. in our heedless-
ness it got away from us. but
ss<• have begun to set it right.
There arc a few whose
disaffection runs deeper,
who wrote that the America
<>l today is a mockery of the
past a testament of failure.
Not so. We know it isn't
so. because we are the
descendants of those
"huddled masses” who
came here, who struggled
and suffered, and we know
the improvements wrought *
in our lives arc not a mockery
hut a fulfillment.
Others charged 'hat our
politicians are conupt and
our institutions uarespon
sive.
The Lord knows that is
often the case. But the
fathers didn’t say America
would perfect mankind. They
said it would give people the
right to throw the rascals out.
And so we can. and do. and
must keep on doing.
Some wrote bitterly that
today's America is a betrayal
of the ideals of the founders.
That is because they judge
the reality against the
dream, instead of against the
progress toward the dream.
We forever complain, for
example, when officials vio-
late the almost absolute free-
dom of the press guaranteed
by the First Amendment. But
we acknowledge that there is
more press freedom in Ame-
rica todav than in previous
eras, and certainly more than
exists anywhere else.
We received many com-
plaints against the press.
True enough, the press is far
from pure. The powerful men
of the press have developed
close and cordial relation-
ships with the powerful men
in government. They con-
verse together; they dine
together; they party to-
gether.
The experience is enough
to convince some reporters
and editors that they are
architects rather than chro-
niclers of policy. Those who
are taken in adopt the atti-
tudes of the people they are
supposed to watch.
Reporters who go along
with the powerful and act as
explainers and apologists for
those who violate the public
trust, must be considered
accessories. Like the politi-
cians and the special seek-
ers. these press people sell a
little of themselves each day.
Abraham Lincoln knew as
much about the meaning of
America as any man, and he
knew all about its failures,
crooked politicians, exploited
minorities, broken promises,
trampled rights, ravaged
lands and the rest.
But he also knew that this
country represented some-
thing strangely hopeful,
something new in the world,
maybe the only new thing in
the relationship of man to
man for thousands of years—
the idea of freedom and an
equal chance.
When in 1863 the Union
forces gained control of the
lower Mississippi, he saw it
as a symbol that the nation
would be preserved to pur-
AFS Exchange Student Speaks To Study Club
Jane Quarmby, AFS Ex-
change Student of Johannes-
burg, South Africa, spoke to
sue this new thing, this
second chance for mankind.
And he wrote a message of
Thanksgiving.
"Thanks to all: for the
Great Republic, for the prin-
ciple it lives by and keeps
alive, for man's vast future,
thanks to all.”
Because the Republic still
lives and keeps alive that
principle in the world, part of
man's vast future has been
fulfilled, and the rest is still
possible.
We have much then to do,
and we have much to cele-
brate.

and their guests at the
Valentine dinner meeting the
evening of February 10 in the
dining room of Bruce’s Grill.
The tables, prepared by the
social committee. Mmes. R.
H. Braly, L. E. Drake, and
Gorden Gatewood, were
colorfully decorated to carry
out the Bicentennial theme.
Miss Linda Jeffers presid-
ing as toastmistress welcom-
ed the members and their
guests, and introduced Mrs.
Kermit Mitchell for the in-
vocation.
Following the dinner and
introduction of guests, Mrs.
Rav Douglas presented Jane
Quarmby who expressed her
appreciation of the AFS pro-
gram and her own pleasure
that she has been a part of it.
She said that this year has
been a “wonderful exper-
ience to be remembered the
rest of my life." As she
showed slides, she gave a
comprehensive presentation
of facts about her country
and pictured a self-sufficient,
properous, and modern
nation. She pointed out
South Africa’s different ap-
proach to problems of educa-
tion and the handling of
racial problems, and spoke of
the threat of communism in
Angola.
