It expresses faith in the. people, and their right to the truth. Witness _ the tragedies of countries where the people have no light, where public opinion is a reflection of fanatical propaganda, and where truth and honesty are in shackles. Recently the sadly goaded peasantry of Poland rose in desperation against a militarist regime. They appealed for a word of support to their great leader, Ignace Paderewski, ing in Switzerland, who from now _liv1924 to 1921 fought heart and soul for a united, self-governing Poland, and was its premier and foreign minister. The venerable, shaggy-maned pianist responded to their plea, urging the zcvernmcnt to let the people decide their own future:destiny and warning government leaders to avoid the disaster of dictatorship which smote Fascist Germany and Communist Russia. This would seem to be sound advice. And a national hero like Paderewski would seem to have a right. to comment upon his country’s affairs. But what happened? The government suppressed the newspapers which dared print his endorsement of the aims of the suppressed peasants. Thus public opinion which might have been mobilized to do good was deprived of the weapon of truth. ‘ Such events, it’s true, are not our immediate concern. But they help bring home to us the fact that an enlightened public opinion is not something constant and eternal like the mition of the sun and tides.
