Mr. Carroll reminded his hearers that they had lived through three world-shaking revolutions: political, Mrs. Maggie Sulton of Joanna, is ^ technological, and moral. For hundreds of years the political life'wf the world was determined un der a system of balance of power among European nations. That sys tem has been destroyed and in its place has risen a Jiew system. It is called “bi-polar,” because in it the J strength of two super-powers is pit ted against each other. The technological revolution brought changes in transportation, communication and warfare. The moral revolution has witness ed the destruction of whatever moral unity there was in the Western Birth Announcements CATO Mr. and Mrs. George Cato an nounce the birth of a son on Satur day, March 29, at the Blalock clinic.

Saying that Communism relies up on ignorance, violence, lies and de ceit, and that it is a disease upon the body of mankind, he traced its growth from the revolutionary days in Russia following the first World war. v Mere than half the people in the world live on or below the poverty line, Mr. Carroll said. They are easy § - | prey for Communism.

Serial—“MYSTERIOUS ISLAND”—Chapter 14 they can. finally be collected in two propositions:, First, it . is -_weak be cause it assumes that it has the ab- soitrttrfinal answer "to the problems of society; second, it is weak be cause it limits the concept of man to that of a producer o^ly. No system p | which has those two fundamental *•{ flaws can long endure. "The record of history is that dic- jj | tatorships always die. Why? The reason is simple. They are incapable^ of growth. Yes, they can expand I physically for a time. But they can- | not grow in the realm of ideas. They I are rigid—without absorptive capac-j ity. This is fatal because the ideas' and ideals of man are constantly i growing and the man or nation with' the absolute, final idea ii^oon left behind. “This is the root source of democ racy's strength.’ If you are looking for the true dynamic in our democ racy, here it is: Our national ideals have never stopped growing. From education to business ethics, from the Nvelfare of the handicapped to conservation of natural resources, from one far corner of life to the other we are constantly, debating, challenging, experimenting, moving and growing. With all of our tem porary shocks and blunders and dis appointments, we remain a dynamic nation. "As for the second fatal weakness' in Communism—its limitation on the* definition of man—we can only say j that this is not progress, but retro gression — movement backward to ward the darkest ages of history. To say that the individual has no in herent dignity, that he is distinguish ed from the animals only by his abil ity to work, is to deny the most ele mentary observations on the nature of man. “Why are free men more produc tive than regimented men? The an swer is simple: freedoRp releases hu man energy and regimentation con fines it. "Freedom nurtures Ingenuity, inventiveness and selection; regi- j mentation nurtures obedience, sub-! mission and conformation. “All we need do,” said Mr. Carroll, “is recognize that man is more than just a social animal. He is also a dis tinct unit within himself. He possess es instincts which are his alone. It is his hunger which must be satisfied, his dreams which want expression. Freedom recognizes these inner drives and gives them opportunity. Regimentation denies them and of fers instead a prescribed life under an economic master plan. “What can we do to win the con fidence and cooperation of those whose faces now seemed turned from us? v “A program of action is vital. But far more important than the pro gram is the spirit with which we un dertake it. If we act because we feel a paternal responsibility for the downtrodden, we shall perpetuate our enemies. If we act merely be- cause it is good for -business, we shall see our sons die and our homes be destroyed. “We must act because we believe,” Mr. Carroll concluded. “We must act because we truly believe in the free way of life — because our spirit flames with confidence in the capac- ity of free men to confront and solve the problems of the world commu nity. We must engage ourselves in a Tiew-erusadeto wifi the mifids of fnen" -to this-advancing truth!” Are you planning to buy a new car? If you are, arrange a low-cost bank auto loan with * . * us.
