Sheriff Collins worked mostly in Smith, LOOKING AHEAD iv GEORGES. BENSON Pmldtm-MitUKi Ctlltfi 1 Surtf.Jtrttiuu An American Dictatorship Just , the idea of dictatorship In America shocks us. Yet a learned European professor from the Uni versity of Zurich, Dr. Emil Brun- ii J f,.M,n Y,rlo f In Amsterdam that "au the Western nations" are headed directly toward totalitarianism. This may have come as a surprise to American citizens, who are part of this great Republic and cherish its democratic institutions. That was what the professor said. He was thinking of our democratic ways, yet that is what he laid. The professor knows that Western nations - have their legal constitu tions. He knows of their orig stand ing convictions about freedoms. Nevertheless, he said these coun tries "are on the way toward total itarianism, not because they like dictatorship, but because wherever a social evil is to be cured they appeal to the state for help." Power Over the People If the people keep calling on the state for help, the interference of government in the daily lives of peo ple will certainly increase. This way of solving , problems through the state is dangerous, as Dr. Brunner warned. Thinking perhaps Of the dangers today confronting Great Britain, he spoke out: "Once the economy is nationalized. totalitar ian state is there whether one'wanti it or not." Our British friends may not be able to admit that their nation has gone totalitarian, but many ear marks of the dictator state are there. The government holds power over the people that cruel kings strove for and could not gain. Yet these powers were handed over to the government in legal, parliamen tary fashion. The government can tell individuals in England where they must work and what they may do for a living. Despots of the Dark Ages held powers no more despotic. An Honest Lawmaker The Congressman for our district. Representative Mills, came home recently. Not up for election this year, our Congressman did not have to buckle down to a barrage' of ques tions and give political answers. In stead of promises he gave our peo ple some straight-in-the-face, fac tual talks. He told us that if we want lower taxes, we'll ust have to stop asking for more and more govern ment ". ' ' . . - You can't keep on begging the gov ernment for this and that, 'and not expect to pay the bills, our Congress man told us. If we can't learn any better than to go to the federal gov ernment with every little problem that confronts us, then we will see government grow until we are en gulfed by it. We must get away from the common idea that if we get something from Washington, . we .therefore got It "for nothing." It Depends en Vn Those beliefs among us are exact ly the kind of thinking that could apawa a dictatorship. World history is full of examples of both big and little Caesars who handed out prom ises for power. The professor is right The state way of doing things the planned economy methodIs dangerous. It encourages helpless ness. It dulls initiative. It thrives on waste. It taxes the people and carer-nothing for debt It could ruin our nation. The only way to avoid this ruin la to get our minds clear about It We can determine that the Amer ican way of work, thrift, self -control, and enterprise will carry us through. When each Individual Is free to work out dafly problems that confront us, wa have m'smm of people doing things rlct e other way, we v- 'I r"- r m t- " ' ft r - --" - - TIM OS Happenings, Advertising In And Around County's Eaotern, Metropolis MRS.
