Dreams become nightmares
"Ask not what your country can do for you; ask what you can do for your country," John F. Kennedy said.
"Some men see things as they are and ask 'why'; I dream things that never were and ask 'why not?' said Robert F. Kennedy.
"I have a dream," said Martin Luther King.
These men were all dreamers in an age when dreams seldom come true.
All their dreams were started on their way to peace, harmony, and brotherhood. They were glorious plans to be put into effect without violence. The benefits of
peace were for people of all races.
Violence turned their dreams into nightmares; we are allowing peace to die a dream instead of continuing the cause.
Assassination, rioting, looting, violence are fast becoming America's middle name.
America, the beautiful, America, God's home town, is being smashed beneath torrents of uncontrolled violence.
The time has come to leave our ideals and face reality NOW before it hits us in the face again.
Violence in America cannot be dealt with and overcome by love hanging from a hip-
pie's flower, or mass murder or a supreme belief in a god who will "deliver us from evil."
He has left the problem up to us.
The supreme belief must now be in ourselves. Belief in each one of us. Belief and understanding. The way to salvation? Perhaps.
To paraphrase the philosophers, "Is life one long period of peace broken up by short sessions of war, or is life one period of war broken up by short periods of peace?"
Which is it?
Publicity of gap is problem
—Janet Wysocki
The "generation gap" is no wider today than it ever has been before. The gap between the generations is widest in the area of communication between the generations. Just because the so-called "generation gap" is so well publicized doesn't mean that it exists.
Modern mothers don't inform their children about many aspects of life in the 20th century. Mothers don't talk with their children about their problems, they just talk at them. Soon they realize their children just "tune them out," and that their children don't pay any attention.
Fathers don't provide adequate information to their sons on various issues and problems which they are forced to deal with in their daily existence, thus causing

New Books
Chaucer and His Contemporaries: Essays on Medieval Literature and Thought, edited by Helaine Newstead (Premier, 95 cents)—A selection that will bring the 14th century to life for many readers. The major poets who are treated are Geoffrey Chaucer, William Langland, and the anonymous author of "Sir Gawain and the Green Knight."
The book about the teen-age baddie is called ANGEL LOVES NOBODY (Dell, 75 cents), and the author is Richard Miles. Angel is a brainy kid full of hate, and to take care of his hates he plots against the establishment of Betsy Ross Junior High. Let us hope that this one doesn't give anybody any ideas.
The Mary Roberts Rinehart thing is a group of stories going back a quarter of a century — THE FRIGHTENED WIFE (Dell, 50 cents). Mrs. Rinehart's skill was in quiet and polite suspense, intricate crimes and complex solutions, damsels in distress. No tough private eyes trying to get in bed with every broad in the book.
Finally, a suspense story by Phyllis Brett Young called Undine (Crest, 60 cents). Though it's a notch better than the usual Gothic novel it is somewhat incredible stuff, likely to remind some readers of such thrillers as "Rebecca" and "The Uninvited." But, come to think of it, how can you do much better than those two—thrillerwise?
