THE CLINTON CHRONICLE
It is not ye that speak, but the Spirit of your Father which
speaketh in you. (Matthew 11:20.)
When I was still a young boy, I heard a preacher speak
about Samuel and how God had spoken to him. I went home
-so much impressed with the sermon that I resolved to hear
God speak to me.
That night I knelt beside my,bed and asked Him to speak
to me, for I longed to hear His voice and advice.' I stayed in
that position for a long time but heard nothing. Finally, I de
cided to go to sleep. I had not lost hope; 1 said to myself,
“Maybe God will speak to me at another time, in another
manner.”
Many years have passed since that night. Now I can look
back and say that God has spoken to me. I have heard His
voice many times in many different ways. He has guided my
life. - ■
True, God does not speak to us when we decide we want
Him to, but He will come to our aid when we seek Him diligent
ly and in sincerity and truth. ~~ -
PRAYER
Our Father, we thank Thee for Thy guidance. Thou hast
always been with us and ready to speak to us. Sometimes
we have not listened to Thee or sensed that Thou Wert
speaking to us. Help us to hear and heed Thy voice that
we may live in the spirit of the Master. In His name we
pray. Amen. . V
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY ’ Y
By faith we hear God Speaking to us; by Christ’! love in
us we try to do His will.

COMMENTS
ON
men And things
I wish to quote from a letter
I’ve received from a quiet,
thoughtful, remarkably efficient
industrialist who, like his illus
trious father, takes time to par
ticipate jn every good move
ment for the public good, and
who cherishes the great history
of our nation. I am referring
to Mr. Walter Regnery of the
great Joanna Company and his
father, the late William H. Reg
nery of Chicago.
It has been my rare fortune
to count among my friends a
» number of men of outstanding
achievement, James C. Self, B.
M. Edwards, William H. Reg
nery, John M. Rivers, S. C.
McMeekin, just to mention a
few," and in this notable group
belongs Walter Regnery, the
modest but effective industrial
ist." ^— :
The letter from Mr. Regnery,
in part, follows:
“The tense times that face
America today underscore the
need for a strong, patriotic
youth reiady, willing, and able
to battle, figuratively and if
need be literally, for our coun-

try. Along with many other citi
zens and some educators, I fear
that in recent yean our edu
cational systems in many sec-
tions of the United States have
weakened the spines and dulled
the patriotism that sparked
youth in other perilous times.
*T am happy to say that I
believe the schools in our area
are above most ini preserving
what was best in old-time edu
ction — discipline, patriotism,
real study of basic subjects.
Nevertheless, I feel that we
must be alert to the trend to
‘educate’ for ‘life adjustment*
and ‘togetherness’ at the sacri
fice of rugged individualism
and independent thinking.
Where ‘social promotion’ pre
vails why should a student put
forth effort when he knows he
will be advanced to the next
grade anyway? And then as an
adult will he not expect the
govermhent to fill his needs in
stead of facing the necessity
of providing for himself and his
family?
“Knowing that you are civic-
minded, patriotic, and intensely
concerned about what is best
for your community, your
state, and your country—and
all its people—I urge you to
take a few minutes of your
time to read the enclosed pam
phlet. Whether or not you agree
with everything Mr. Rafferty
says, I believe you will agree
that it is worth saying in order
to arouse a healthful appraisal
of whether we are so busy edu
cating for ‘ life adjustment’
that we forget to educate for
survival, as Dr. Rafferty fears.
“It will be a favor to our
children and to our United
States if you will think over Dr.
Rafferty r s speech and discuss
with other enlightened citizens
and educators what can be
done to preserve this lovely
land of ours as it once was and
— please God — will yet be
again; a nation fit for heroes
—serene in the knowledge of
our past—confident and ready.”
I hardly need to quote Dr.
Rafferty, for Mr. Regnery’ has
covered the ground very im
pressively in few words.
Quoting from Dr. Rafferty’s
address in California: Speaking
of Nathan Hale, who was hang
ed by the British as a spy dur
ing the Revolution, it is recall
ed that he suffered martyrdom,
declaring his regret that he had
but one life to lay down for his
country, Dr. Rafferty compares
that with some recent surren
ders by Americans. #
“. . Nathan Hale could have
blamed George Washington, 1
suppose. He might even have
had a chance to save his neck.
Perhaps it’s ^ just as well that
stone ears can’t hear, nor stone
eyes see, nor a stone heart beat
heavily with shame for one’s
countrymen . . .”
The other thing should have
been sublimely simple for us to
get across to the children en
trusted to our care. It was
to teach them every day in
every necessary way to mem
orize and to believe and to live
Decatur's great toast: ‘Our
Country! In her intercourse
with foreign nations, may she
always be in the right, but our
country, right or wrong.’
Had they been taught to love
their country with the same
passion that inspired other gen
erations of American youth,
they would not now be wonder,
ing what all the fuss is about.
They would know that their
country was in danger, and
that would be enough, it was
enough in 1917 and 1941. It’s not
enough today. Too many of
them neither know nor care.
It is our fault, and this is
what frightens me. What will
history have to say at my gen
eration of educators—the gen
eration at the ’30s, the ’40’s,
and the ’50’s. We were so busy
educating for. Jlife adjustment’
that, we forgot to educate for
survival. Worse, still, we forgot
that the first duty of a nation's
schools is to preserve that na
tion. Words that America had
treasured as a rich legacy, that
had sounded trumpet calls
above the clash of arms and
toe fury of debate, we allowed
to fade from the classrooms
and the consciousness of the
pupils,
‘Liberty and Union, now and
forever, one and inseparable
‘We halve met the enemy, and
they are ours . .
‘Millions foi; defense, but not
one cent for tribute ... *
Our sin was greater than thU,‘-
however. Patriotism feeds upon
hero-worship, and we decided
to abolish herpes. u Even the
nursery rhymes, poor
little things beloved by
tions of children and which had
come down to us* from time im
memorial, were pronovniied too
violent’ and ’aortUd’ for the
children to hear until after we

we had better thank God for
the Array and Navy! And—with
half the world at our throats—
we had better teach our chil
dren that it is not a disgrace,
but a priceless privilege, to
wear our country’s uniform.
No wonder so many of them
welsh out and squeal and turn
traitor when confronted with
the brutal reality of Red mili
tary force and the crafty cun
ning of Red psychological war
fare . . .
I need not comment further
What I’ve quoted is the sad
truth: Much of our so-called
education is just a lot of piffle,
over-elaboration of side-issues
and “trifles.”
“Life is real, life is earnest,”
and to quote again, “Let us
then be up and doing, with a
heart for any fate; still achiev
ing, still pursuing. Learn to
labor and to wait.”
In the long ago, we learned
such things as that. Not now,
however; today what do we
learn? I ask you.
Over in France I lectured to
the boys about the background
of the war and our American
history. Not so, this most recent
war. There was no General Per
shing this time, although Mc
Arthur is a patriot.

May we lawfully cite a Gov.
eraor for contempt and bring
him to trill in a Federal Court?
Under the present supreme
court, and with such judges as
come to the bench with virtual
ly no training .in conistitutional
law, anything may be done.
But! If a Congressman or State
legislator may not be arrested
during the sessions except for
Breach of Peace—how can a
Goverifcr be arrested? He is al
ways on duty, in session, as‘it
were. Furthermore, a Governor
embodies the Sovereign dignity
of a sovereign state. Can a. Fed
eral Court arrest and remove
a sovereign? Under our prac
tice we may not arrest and im
prison the humblest member of
a foreign embassy on our soil.
How much more sovereign is
the head of a Sovereign State?
Breach of the peace is an act
of physical violence, a person
al affair and a Governor can
only be reached by impeach
ment. By parity of reasoning a
Mississippi court might cite the
President for participating in
unlawful, unconstitutional prac
tices and for instigating riots
and grave breaches of the
peace of Mississippi. What is
good for the goose is good for
the gander. This reasoning
would not impress the Kennedy
regime, for it is autocratic,
Caesar come back. And the
numerous sycaphants, like old
Pilate, tremble if one says
“Thou art no friend of Caesar.”
That swept Pilate off his feet.
We must all bow to all the Ken-
nedys. The Constitution of the
United States prescribes that a
member of Congress “Shall be
privileged from arrest during
attendance of the sessions of
Congress, and in going to and
returning from sessions of Con
gress. And shall not be ques
tioned in any place for any
speech or debate> in Congress.”
I submit that a Governor
is always on duty and is not
subject to arrest even for such
a thing as breach of the peace
(physical violence, that means),
nor may he be airested for
whatever he says as Governor
for he has greater official dig
nity and preeminence than any
member of Congress. He is
clothed with the majesty of his
sovereign office and is beyond
action save by impeachment.
Only by impeachment of his
own legislature can a Governor
be subjected to a trial in court.

He is-not answerable to a Fed

rive their powers from the peo
ple of their state, not from the
Federal Government. Therefore,
it is clear to me, (fra* a Govern
or need not respond to the pro
cess from any federal court. It
seems propitious to discuuss
briefly a grave question which
affects all citizens of our great
nation. I do not approach this
as a Southerner, or as a poli. I

npt as a democrat or republi-1
can, but as an American who
loves or great country and

challenged the course of Mr.'
Eisenhower in Little ftocfc; and,
with greater concern, I see
now the Federal octopus pre
suming to -punish as a criminal
the Governor of a Sovereign
State for carrying out the man
date of his own Legislature and
people?

Do you remember the undivided attention ypU gave
to a story-teller . . . when you first heard Cinderella,
Snow White, or some gallant warrior bold? It seems
80 long ago. And yet, that attention reveals within
ourselves more than dreams; it reveals a secret long
ing after mysteries, after the things we do not under
stand, but somehow love.
Religion, in a way, is somewhat like that. Every
body is religious! But, of course, everybody doesn’t
call it that! Nevertheless, there is in the heart of man
m secret yearning, a wish, a hope for things eternal.
We express those wishes in church.
And somehow God hears our wishes and consoles
and explains. That is a very important part of the
Church; for it is a place of consolation and under
standing, a place where wishes (prayers) are heard,
where the mysteries of life gain new meaning.
