Yet this country IS a republic. And the fact was recently restat ed by an outstanding American leader. Senator Thomas Dodd j(D-Conn.). • Addressing the graduating class at the University of Dallas. | Senator Dodd laid down the great | truths of our constitutional sys tem. “It Is a Republic,” Senator Dodd declared, “whose basic principle is representative gov Rev. Brice Shumpert Is Lexington Native REV. BRICE SHUMPERT The Rev Brice Shumpert, new pastor of Bailey Memorial Metho dist Church, occupied the pulpit for the first time last Sunday. He is a native of Lexington and his pastorates have been in that area He came to Clinton after three years at the Methodist Church at Eutwaville. Mr and Mrs. Shumpert and Jup 6%" matching nylon binding!

What the New Frontiersmen want to do is to smash down all barriers between the individual citizen and the su per-bureaucracy in Washington To this end. they want to destroy state government as a convenient device for distributing federal handouts The founders of this country well understood the dangers of the individual confronted by a sover eign power That’s what they fac ed in colonial times when the Crown abused them To prevent such direct confrontation, they established the barriers of state government and the division of powers among the Executive, Ju dicial and legislative branches of government With these barriers in existence, they figured, the in dividual would be protected from tyrannical rule by the device of the Constitution. “We ought to be partisan in be half of this Constitution.'’ says Senator Dodd “We ought to hon or and respect it. And we ought to think carefully before applauding witticisms about our 'horse and buggy’ government or laments about the difficulty of living In the 20th century with 18th cen tury institutions.” Americans should realize that the 18th century was an age In which liberty was a flaming pas sion The 20th century, unhappily, is an age of creeping socialist and communist tyranny. It is an age of Big Brother rule, governmental snooping, and growing state con trol over private enterprise and private actions of all sorts There's nothing wrong with our Constitution conceived in the 18th century. After all, millions of Americans believe in a religious faith rthat is almost 2,000 years old! Both are as good today as they were when established Truth remains the same; princi ples do not change So long as Americans under stand that this is a republic, not a Castro-type democracy where crowds scream approval of the theft of their liberties, this coun try is safe But safety also de pends on resisting the brain-wash ing of those who deny this is a re public. As Senator Dodd warns, the “movement to undermine re publican institutions takes an or derly, non-violent course But it is nonetheless dangerous and its possible end result, the creation of a supreme central government, free from the many restraints now imposed upon it, could have the same dread effect on free dom.” Yes, this is a republic, not a democracy; let’s keep It that way! cgSs “DIE FOR ALL YOU ARE WORTH” Hugh L.
