This week we received a letter to the editor, strong with conviction and defense of a friend. Unfortunately, as is so often the case, the letter was written by "Anonymous". The letter concluded :"if there is still freedom of the press I hope you will print this." Yes, Anonymous , there is still freedom of the press, along with another important freedom -- of speech and expression. It is too bad that people are becoming so reluctant to use it they become "anonymous" when they have something to say. THE WORST GENERATION Ours is the worst generation of parents in history. The wonder is that our kids are as good as they are. We have tossed out the harsh, intolerant rules that seemed so arbitrary in our own childhood years. We're pals to our kids. In the jargon of people who study such things, our attitude is "permissive"  and that's putting it mildly. Today the kids set the rules and the parents abide by them. It is an uncommon parent who stands by a set of rules even when assured that "all the other kids" have a different rule book. After Ml, who wants to seem out- moded? We have lost the Puritan streak that assumed a little unhappiness, a few frustrations, can be borne by anyone and might even be beneficial to the immortal soul. Instead, we want everybody to be happy all the time especially our youngsters. And when the pursuit of happiness leads the kids into trouble, we're quick to blame the schools or the police or the courts or the ever-present "bad companions" who always seem to be the cause of the trouble. We'll find the fault eyerywhere, in fact, except in our own homes. (Kitsap County Herald) 'TAINT SO MUCH AS IT LOOKS Many Mason County visitors to the Century ').1 World's Fair have looked longingly at that 30-ton heap of one mil- lion silver dollars exhibited in one of the fair buildings and thought "Boy, if I only had that pile of doughY But neighbor, if you did you wouldn't have most of it very long. Federal income taxes alone would scoop up $856, 910 of it right off the bat, if you were the head of an average family of four. For one brief, bittersweet moment you would Iave been among those rare Americans in the 91% income tax bracket. Normally, you begin paying taxes at 20%, which accounts, incidentally, for 849 of all federal indivi- dual income taxes collected. It is interesting to consider just how far a million bucks go in today's federal spending spree. The National Associa- tion of Manufacturers tells us one million dollars would: meet interest costs on the national debt for just about one hour; pay salaries of all federal civilian employees for slightly over one hour; retire from production less than 25; of the land acres soil bank in 1961; provide free world citizem $1.36 foreign aid apiece in those nations in which we have foreign economic assistance committments; pay the storage costs on basic supported food commodi- ties (cotton, tobacco, peanuts, wheat, corn, dairy products) for less than one day. Look at it another way. Uncle Sam expects income taxes on individuals to ac- count for 53; of all federal revenue in fiscal 1963. To do so he will have to collect at the rate of 5: million dollars every hour 24 hours a day for the entire year. That million dollar pile doesn't look quite so imposing now, does it?

WHAT IS AN AMERICAN ? Editor, The Journal In this time of world-wide strife and in view of the universal strug- gle to control the thonghts and minds of individuals this world over, I tifink it's time we reflect a nloment and give thanks for the tremendous blessing we enjoy as Americans, To comprehend, if we can, the magnitude of this hlessing, to accept the obligations wc have inherited with that ble- [sn;-- recognize and Io acknow- i ledge this blessing and this obli- i gation let us ponder this question and these answers. : What :'s an American? An Amel'ican is one who be- lieves in the rights of men and women regardless of creed, class, color or ancestry, to live as hu- man beings with dignity becom- ing the children of God. An American is one who be- lieves in the right to be free. Free not only from cmshing coercions snd dictatorships and regimen- U:.tion, but free in that they be- lieve men may think and speak as they choose and worship God as they see fit. An American is one who be- lieves in the right to live, the right to work, the right to learn, the right to choose his leaders, and the equally important right and gentle obligation to be different for he knows if we ever lose our desire to bc just a little different we are forfeiting our rights to be free, we have lost our grasp on the one driving force that is lhe mainstay of American free- born, our right of free thought and expression. An American is one who be- lieves in and practices Democ- racy not only for himself but for all his fellow Americans. By De-: mocracy he means not simply the rule of the majority, but the sac- red rights of the minorities. That those minorities have inalienable rights not. jnst because they are minorities but because they are Luman beings. An American is one who be- lieves.in the responsibility of priv- ilege. What he asks for himse.lif he willingly grants to others, what he demands from others he is wih - tng to give of himself. His creed is not alone, "Live and Let Live", but, "Live and help live." An ,American ]s one who acts from faith in others, not fear of others. Ft'om understanding, not prejudice: From Goodwill, not hat- led. To bigotry he gives no sanc- tmn; to intolerance, no support. Tile only question a true Amer- ican will ever ask is not, are you a Catholic, Protestant or a Jew, or  Gentile, white or colored, but simply, Are you an American ? If you are, then give me your hand for I am an American too. Sincerely, D. S. (Sam) CLARK 427 Henry at. Sllelton, Washingt, on A DEMOCIIAT SPEAKS AGAINST COLTNTY PARTY. t To the Editor: Through no knowledge of mine, I read the letter in tim last issue EDITOR ] ot the paper from my daughter, Fran Clifton, and realized the harm that the mlscrupulous can,- paign just waged has done, not only to o,u' futm'e young voters bill: also to many u:decided peo- )le. I have been a hard-worRing De- nocrat for nearly 20 years and never i)efore have 1 heard such a masterful collection of nmd slinging as tile Democrats have done in Mason County, much of which could have b:en controlled by the :)fficers of tee Democratic Central Committee. The chairman of any political party or of any organization is selected for his lea derslli not his dictatorship; he is to hold the membership togeth- £r and above all hc must remain neutral toward candidates of his own party before the primary election. Regardless of his obli- gation, he sponsored, in March, an "appreciation dinner" for a certain candidate and planned to give him the money. After a bit- ter fight, this men@ was put into the general fund. I think this chairman's duties are toward the Democratic Party, tc keep the membership together, to increase the membership, to get good election boards, instead of trying to further the political ca- reer of one certain candidate and hell)in K to build up a big-time po- litical machine. The political ma- chine which has been organlzea in this county is similar to the ward-boss system of the big cities and is something to which every- one should be alerted. This refers also to other officers of the Dem- ocratic Club and party, some es- pecially who, though they have lived in Mason County for many years, or all of their lives,, sud- denly come to life and become ac- tive Democrats. i think TOO ac- tive. These individuals, because of their lack of knowledge, have split cur party into a game of chosing up sides. I have talked to a great many people in Shelton who have urged me to write this letter to inform the public how this policy of the new" type * of smearing by new gimicks can infltmnee the voting ]ublicl I personally wonder r these border-line Democrats who try to by-pass the basic precepts of the Democratic Party are look- ing for new state jobs or are afraid of losing the'ones they al- ready have. I am solely and personally re- sponsible for this letter and the opinions expressed are my own. .... Ceeelia Clifton Cornell Editor, The Journal: A short time age therc appeared a, letter in this column regard- ing a "gripe" concerning the den- tists and their making of month protectors for football players. It seems as someone was unable to get an appointment to be fitted just prior to the start of the school year. In answer to this we would like to have several points lrnown. 1. Football candidates were told lasl', spring they would have to have a mouth piece and to make arrangements to hve this done. 2. The boys were again remind- ed of this fact in a letter sent ouL by the coaches early in Aug- ust. 3. The dentists in Shelton have ,pent many extra hours, do)rating ti, eir time working on these mouth pieces. 4. The dentists have done their best to "sandwich in" the deluge of last minute requests for mouth pieces. 5. The fee charged for this mouth piece covers primarily the cost of the matermls used. Wc wish to thank thc dentists of Shelton for their cooperation mid we sincerely appreciate their efforts and interest in helping us to carry out this new regulation.
