New York City has its Fifth Avenue
and its buildings go to any heights to
meet the sky but:
Hondo has its much-improved
Avenue M, the sun shines all the way
down to meet our lower roofs, and:
The Anvil Herald has had 76 years
of publication without a single strike to
deter it from its weekly appointed rounds.
That no news is good news might
be classified as a “mute”'topic just now.
If the old saying be true, readers and
advertisers dependent on New York
newspapers have had a goodly share for
several weeks.
The traditional wide open spaces
that we love are not on unused news-
print. Most of us like to reatj all about
it even while, today, we can also see
and hear all about it if the TV and radio
tubes don't blow out.
Newspapers the size of ours might
look mighty small compared to the multi-
paged big city dailies. But, the ifnporta.-it
thing to be glad about here, is that we do
stay on the job to bring the news to our
community in full awareness of the re-
sponsibility and privilege.
It was the late Will Rogers who
said: “Take away my ham. take away
my eggs, even my chili, but leave me'
my newspaper.’’

Four untitled paragraphs which
found their way into print without a by-
line, seem to be of such stuff as editorials
could well be made. They are reprinted
here in appreciation of the tribute paid
to the perennial self-recruiting army of
volunteers who find their reward in the
doing:
In recent years as I have pondered
over the vicissitudes of democracy, it
has often occurred to me to wonder what
would happen in the United States if all
citizens who work for nothing, who serve
•as volunteers, were suddenly to go on
strike. This band of strikers would In-
clude all trustees of colleges, universi-
ties and private schools, ail members of
local school boards, all directors of pri-
vate institutions and agencies, all solici-
tors for community projects, all lay
boards collaborating with public institu-
tions, all committee members of private
institutions and agencies, and that great
host of citizc.ua who serve multitudinous
welfare, health and recreational organi-
zations in one capacity or another. How
large would that total be? I know of no
reliable .count, but the total would cer-
tainly fall in the neighborhood of twen-
ty-five to thirty million persons.
Whit would happen if this corps of
citizens who labor without pay, who exer-
cise their own free will, were to resign
their posts, refuse to attend the meet-
ings and disengage themselves from all
responsibility? It’s difficult to imagine
what all life minus the volunteers would
be like, but one may make a few as-
sumptions. Public agencies would take
on more and more of the coloration of'
bureaucracy. Private agencies would, I
believe, wither and die, and when private
institutioas no longer exist democracy
will have committed suicide. Total
bureaucracy or dictatorships will take its
place, and freedom will disappear al-
together. ,
I wish 1 knew how to induce volun-
teers to appreciate the significance they
play in furnishing vitality to democratic
enterprise. They are to democracy what-
circulation of the blood is to the or-
ganism. They keep democracy alive. They
epitomize freedom and are to our society
what the Bill of Rights is to the Con-
stitution which governs us. The health of
the democratic society may be measured
in terms of the quality of services render-
ed by citizens who act in obedience to
the unenforceable.
We live under the discipline of three
domains: 1. The positive law which pre-
scribes rules of conduct. 2. The realm
of free choice, which is covered by no
statutes,, and 3. That domain in which
neither positive law nor free choice pre-
vails. In this sphere the individual im-
poses obligations upon himself In this
realm the individual is not wholly free j
since he has’ accepetd the responsibility,
although he knows that no law and no
individual may compel him to fulfill this j
commitment. He also knows he cannot i
disobey without betraying himself. This
is the domain ink which the volunteer
lives. The real greatness of a nation, its
true civilization, is measured by the ex-
tent of obedience to the unenforceable.
