He has a son who is opposed to war, and he says he is 'proud of his judgment, which is far superior to ours,' he argues. He thinks his son "has, perhaps, profiled by his dad's mistakes." Here's a New York newspaper that scathingly says "sentimentality and ignores the power of positivity." Mr. White, whose sentimentality and whose ignorance, may I ask? A more housewife, on the other hand, points out, "It is just possible that these young people don't see it." to come clean and admit that they are conducting not educational institutions but adjuncts of the army. The other day a "self-made business man" suggested in a letter that students should thank their stars for the chance to study in "well-appointed colleges" which have been made possible by rich men's endowments. If that isn't hysterical reasoning I don't know what is. The great universities of France and of self-respecting countries are much smaller than by rich men's benefit. These countries realize that all young people must be educated as education as long as they can take it. A Right To Be Educated As people grow older they grow more cowardly.
