The campaign to make Germany a
democracy, for another examplr, has not
only failed. It has been an impetus for the
regrowth of Nazism because many o f our
late enemies are revolted at tho thought of
democracy or the attitude that puts the
.individual above the statr
Billions of words have been spoken on
the theme, but it is only now that we as a
people are awakening to the values we really
believe in. The things we live by in our pri­
vate and working lives.
Whether this change or awakening is
taking place because we are in mortal dan­
ger, or whether the'campaigns to arouse us
are beginning to bear fruit, we cannot say.
We have been unconscious; unaware and
ignorant. We are now mentally awake and
active and we are working with critical
aw areness in accompaniment of creative im­
pulse, deliberately and intentionally.
We have finally become aware of a
truth we have known all along. That the
United States of America is the individual.
You are America. We are starting to think
straight and more and more of us are saying
to ourselves, "The U S A means me."
# ) There Is an old saying that he who sows
the wind will reap the whirlwind. This is
beinu demonstrated in the field of prices.
The markup practices start in the r a w
material fields and are carried right down
through. Everyone know* this and vet
everybody denies it.
Case in point is coffee. The coffee peo­
ple are flooding the newspapers and all
other mediums of communication with a p ­
parently sound reason for the fantastic in­
creases in the prices of this commodity A c
tually most of the reasons are invented and

# The straggle between the throwback ty­
ranny of the Soviet Communist states and
us will end only one way. Of course we will
have to stand steady or resist aggression but
the real reason for optimism is human na­
ture. We will win.
The individual drives in men and women
are innate. They are natural and while it
is easy, too easy, to kill people it is not pos­
sible to destroy nature.
Each generation moans man is born
again with the ancient virtues and vices
of the race, the human race". iBoris Sokoloff
in "Science and the Purpose of Life" points
out that the Soviet system is doomed to
failure because." the individualistic drives of
the human race cannot be stopped by anv
force within nature, least of all by the stupid
terrorism practiced by a police state."
