Education for Freedom— PRACTICING DEMOCRACY MUST BE LEARNED, SAYS SENATOR By ESTES KEFAUVER United States Senator From Tenneisee j A., - TOR’S NOTE—This is one of a series of articles written by , outstanding Americans of our time, stressing the importance to the youth of the United States of obtaining a good education. The series is distributed nationally by King Features Syndicate. I IN THE HEAIfT of Africa today you will find an American highway T\ engineer. He is one of my fellow Tennesseans —John L. Hubbard, of Knoxville. He is helping the emperor of Ethiopa to develop a road system that will enable that rich land and its people to develop and prosper. " ’ \ -I j; f’, i \ r I• I ' ! Over in India is\ another Tennessean—a rhan by the name of Horace Holmes, of Whiteville. Mr. Holmes is a Farm Extension Worker. In three years he has shown the farmers of that famine ridden country HF;' ' how to double their wheat and po- < tato crops. ■ ' WIMBL ; There is a public health doctor from Seattle working in Iran—a 7 crucial and very important spot just this side of the Iron Curtain. I,\ yRp He has been helping the Iranians to stamp out malaria with the . spraying of i DDT. He and his , S American staff are helping the I fe“ 1 9 Iranians to set up modern public ;J| health services. -' J Not far from Iran is the little '' wJB* Republic of Lebanon and there we find an American irrigation expert from Wyoming working on a river ’• , Ji' J 9 development project tpat will mean ■RHL j jt! jF ijr JW a better standard of living for the p- ( people of that country. He is one Jaß<| of a team of 11 American re- ;■? j • clamation experts who HHHHRdUk JHHHm operating with the government of s* nt , tor Kef auver mentioned these Americans and the work that they arc doing because I believe that they: are father typical of what I conCei ' e *°J* the value of education to the young American a^ rou /£ U his country—the question thaFT was asked to answer by the editors ofj King Features Syndicate. \ . " < Perhaps I can best explain that by saying that; America has been placed in a position of world leadership at a very crucial time in world; ‘ America now. occupies the position that Britain occupied in thef Eighteenth Century, when it imposed the Pax Britinnica on the world, largely through its mastery of thfe seas, or that Rome occupied in the late Pagan and early Christian world, when it imposed the Fax Romana, > largely through its mastery of arrhs. t A'l , . . We in America seeh peace. In doing so, we.are the acknowledged leader of the free-world. But we know that the Pax Americana, it there is to be one, WiU hot be by armed force alone. . We must Combine that -with moral leadership4-arjd that kind of j leadership can be successfully applied only by an ehlightened people it involves the kind of things that John Hubbard and Horace Holmes and those other Americans around the world are doing.; < < <! ' ] Not only need we be educated iff the utilitarian things such as building roads, or producing better potato crops, but wd need also to know ourselves and the other peoples of ithe world better-f-our past and their past, our ideals and their ideals, oUr aims and theirs. \ V We need to teach practicing democracy in the schools. I have been a strong supporter of the, Atlantic Union plan—a plan which foresees j j ’the uniting of the free peoples of the world in a much. closer union, modeled in general afterour own federal union. j <•' This type of union, I believe, will bring ultimate peace to the world—but it is possible only among nations whose citizens are enlightened. , i L \ -15 a -1 ; - ; L — 2
