The press was not allowed int< the meeting. A spokesman for the SCSSL saic that the session was close4 -because of fears that it might b reported with emphasis on the "spectacular" and "sensational.' - This seems to be a prejudgment .of the press, a supposition that emphasis would be placed on the sensational, that the story woulk ,be distorted. The damage has been done. The -delegates of the SCSSL have beer . castigated in public and private S-by their acquaintances and by the media. Hopefully, they have arned an important lesson.

Smit Since this nation framed its constitution, % have not had an enemy army on our shore except when we "liberated" Mexican lands, ar we have not lost a war, except the Korea "police action." All this has lead to an insane optimism and belief that we are not only invincible, but, als always right. Every American seems to ha% had a grandmother who said, "Everythir always works out for the best, in the best of a possible worlds." And we send out troops to fight and ot businessmen to exploit other countries, while A sit in front of televisions scorning the victims i our rightousness. We rape and sneer at natior that were civilized and had mass education ar welfare systems thousands of years befor Europeans built the first crude shacks in th hemisphere. And we do it in the name of nationalism. In the name of nationalism we stole half o Mexico. In the name of nationalism we sut jugated Cuba.

If we continue to hide behind nationalism I- in favor of economic and political opportunists we will weaken this country to where it may h never see its third century. If we continue to deplete our young.in wars, we 'e will end up like France, a nation with no leaders 5, and content to muse of its past greatness. id Just as our sectionalism caused the Civil War in from which we are still recouping, nationalism is separating us from the peoples of the world. If a we stand alone in this world, we will not recover from our conceit. Our national pride is still pride; and pride is 9 still the folly of fools. I1 instead of taking what we can for our money houses and egos from another nation, we should ir be taking what they will give us of their culture e and ways of life that have lasted. Nations that )f are ten times as old as we may have something is to teach us about government and surviving in d contact with other people and nations. e If we flaunt our brief, shining history, we will Is have no more years to build history with. If we think we can conquer other nations and other people within our own nation, and not consider f their welfare, we will be beaten to our knees and never rise. 3 There is no one so perfect that he cannot make , a mistake. Those who think they are perfect r make serious and fatal mistakes. D If we have no room for the character and integrity of the rest of the world, that world will soon have no room for us.
