Who May Think?
Stopped by a traffic signal whi'e
driving in a narrow, busy street a
few days ago, my ear caught a familiar,
musical note. Just beyond
the sidewalk, through a big, open
door, a blacksmith was shaping
shoes for a farmer's heavy team.
Horns behind me suggested moving
along before I had finished looking,
but it was an inspiration to watch
this workman, so skillful and energetic.
Moving-picture blacksmiths are
elderly gentlemen with droopy mustaches,
but not this man. He was
about 30, clean shaven and active.
The tempo of his hammer was lively.
The hopeful picture he unwittingly
posed of post-war America has
come to mind several times since.
More recently I have been listening
to men discuss post-war plans
that involved moulding public opinion.
Fabricating Sentiment
"Knowledge is Power." The words
are supposed to have flowed from
the pen of Francis Bacon about 300
years ago, but I think Bacon lifted
this choice bit of wisdom from Solomon:
Proverbs 24-5. It has stood
the test of time. Popular jpentiment
can be moulded. No informed person
will deny it. Hitler dial it. National
leaders do it all the time,
consciously or unconsciously, for
better or for worse.
For eleven years in China I
watched selfish local war lords exercise
their power over a patient,
toiling peasantry. It could be done
easily where the great mass of the
people were unlearned,-as in China,
where 80% could neither read nor
write. Unlearned masses sometimes
rebel, but they usually fail because
the energy they exert is not power;
only ill-directed force.
Omsbms Sanaa af Most
For 156 years the United States
has prospered and grown as a republic,
This is superior to a democracy
in that it provides for the safety-sad
protection of minorities. A
democracy places the minority at
the mercy of the majority, sometimes
Just as heartlessly as a dictatorship.
That is why minorities
have retained freedom in America
; why each individual is still tree
to think for himself.
It is impossible to get a corner on
a nation'* ideas. Every man and
woman has a brain and there is
only one way to keep them from
utilizing these assets to enrich themselves
and the whole race, namely,
keep 'em ignorant. The American
way is the other way: schooling is
free; libraries are everywhere;
press and radio prosper keeping
people Informed. Our people have
knowledge and our nation has
power.
An Offensive Flgsre
A country, whose leaders want the i
benefit of the best thinking of - the I
whole nation, .Is on its way qp. A
thai confines. Its thinking end
planning to boards and bureaus Is on
its way down. Central planners reason
thus: "The blacksmith has a
head on him, but ao does his hammer.
Why bother about either? We
will do the thinking and the planning."
Germany planned for the whole
of her people, but her wages ware
only half aa high as American wagaa'
in 1930. Russia doss ffovanunantplpUrml^to
