On Thursday, November 12
1970, the South Carolina Stat
Student Legislature convene<
behind locked doors to hea
Solicitor John Foard speak about i
resolution censuring him.
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.
Let us examine the reasons the)
-.acted as they did. It is very
.possible that Vice-president
Agnew's politically motivated
attacks on the news mediaL had
- some influence on this decision tc
-,exclude the press. Although

"The American people never carry an up
brelle. They prepare to walk In eternal su
shine."
Alfred E. 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. In the name of nationalism w
defend the economic interests of United Frui
Coca-Cola, Standard Oil and others with ou
a military might. In the name of nationalism w
leave Americans dead all over the world.
ye
nvin In the name of nationalism we silence faction
hn in our own country. In the name of nationalisn

for the world
We are in fact permitting our rich to oppress
other nations for profit, we are dishonest and
I- weak. 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.

reflect that God is just."
