DEMOCRACY AND COERCION
“There ought to be a law." It In
one of America? famous sayings, .
heard a hundred times a day, in «cry to
walk of life. Legislation might "bout
called America‘s obsession. 'We seek
to cover every act 0: human existonce'
J with a law; we make law cover both
is: that what is in law's upbere and
- what is or ought to be, only in the
sphere of morals or ethics. We can-1'
not let the individual alone to de-'
velop; we must pull him up every lit-
tle while to see if his roots are just;
9 the same as his neighborh. If they;
are not—well, then, “there ought to
be a law" to make them the same.
willy nilly.
The superintendent of instruction
of Michigan has declared he will seek !
legislation making it illegal for high!
school students to belong to secret or-
ganizations, on, the grounds that they
E are "undemocratic, create snobbieh-
F ness and graduate hlase young boys
; and girls." it might be asked of the
i superintendent if it is the organiza-
tion or the schools that graduate the
blase young folks he mentions. Be-
ll cause. if secrecy makes for snobbiah-
mess, Where is the democracy of Am-
erica headed, since in the United

less he or she signs a pledge of loy-
alty to the United States.
Surely the New York board of edu-
cation will be ashamed to admit it

ment for graduation. as the district
" superintendent. should have been
_ ashamed to foster it. Will the board
_ publicly admit that it cannot incul-
yvj'cate, but must cocrcc loyalty? Will
the board tell the country what the
" pupils it has had in its care for sever-
al years have not bi't'll taught love of
their country, native or adopted?
What ha've the schools been teaching
,‘the children, that they are afraid to
