Enough of Violence
The Great Fair’
At leant State University, a
mild-mannered student who had
won hie Eagle Scout badge; two
happy girls, loved by all; and a
fourth student characterized also
as “nta-rebellious” are deed ,at
the Hands of the National Guard.
And a despair deeper than any
to grip thi« nation since the trav
ail of the Great Depression has
spread over the land.
Young people bent on destruc
tion and government men with
bullets in their guns on the
edges of college campuses ere
only a part of the current story
of violence. Temporary sabo
tage of an honorable peace
movement is also unfortunate.
The members of the November
Action Coalition, responsible for
subverting the honorable inten
tions of liberals who seek to
awaken the nation to the need
for an early peace in Vietnam,
have had their chance. The
damage has been ghastly; the
strategy barbaric; the results the
very opposite of those desired by
all living by the code of truly
free men.
In the six months between the
dignified and effective demon
strations for peace in October
and the disgrace of April, the
hard core operators among our
1970 crop of revolutionaries gave
ample warning of their determ
ination to Wow off the roof.
Bombings in New York tele
graphed the intentions of more
violence to come. Around the
country, the madness and irre
sponsibility of the plotters were
recorded by reporters and cam
eramen. At the University of
Wisconsin, irrespansibles Stole a
plane and dropped three regula
tion bombs dn an Army base,
luckily muffing the act, At
Harvard in early April when
members of the Visiting Com

rules established after previous
turmoil by rocking the car to

repaired after the dissidents had
broken up their meeting.
Those in charge of our univer
sities need more than prayer and
good intentions now to keep the
institutions running. They must
have the kind of resolution and
wisdom shown by the new Pres
ident of Hunter College, Jacque
line Grenan Wexler, who stated
not long after going into office:
“I will sometimes initiate and
often support radical change,
but I will never support the
seizure of a power position by
a self-constituted group that
gains or sustains that power by
force or oppression.”
This is a refreshing antidote
to the methods employed by the
April 15 insurrectionists and to
the preachments of David Dell
inger (of the Chicago Seven),
now calling for the angry young
men and young women to move
beyond demonstrations, to pro
vide resistance involving force
and possibly violence.
Those choosing that path for
rebellion are saying now that
we cannot look to congressmen
and the President for effective
change. And at this point the
issue seems joined for those who
disagree.
For obviously if we are to pre
serve much that is magnificent
about America, we still can do
it primarily and most effectively
by employing the political pro
cess. We will get out of
Vietnam and Avoid involvement
in Cambodia wily if we put into
office people who will execute
the demands for that wise
course. And the same applies
to our need to get on with the
hard work of guaranteeing a
viable income to the depressed,
curbing inflation, providing sat
isfactory housing for all, and
closing out the scandal of hun
ger and substandard health care
for thousands in America.
The National Commission On
The Causes and Prevention of
Violence has offered reasonable
and sensible recommendations
for closing in on the kind of dis
order illustrated by the April
outrages. The 81 proposals made
by that honorable body may not
be taken seriously by the ma
jority of our elected officials.
But there are aspirants in the
wings who could serve our
country nobly if the electorate
hoisted them into office with
the understanding that they
would apply with determination
the prescription spelled out by
the Commission.
A Seven Arte Feature
'‘Don’t read this book unless
you had a childhood.
Don’t pick K up if you do not
wish to share the intimate
glimpses in this vividly depict
ed and wonderful yearnings of
a youngster’s days of a time and
life which exist today only in
the pages of this sweet auto
biography.
Skip the volume if you don’t
want tp recapture for all too
brief moments the wonderful
recollections of a rare writer.
Pass it by if you cannot stand
to turn back the years and see
through poignant eyes the nos
talgic era of innocent children
and what they did and thought
in the uncomplicated stetle of
yester-Europe.
Uncomplicated? Perhaps in the
measure of the scientific and
socio-complex direnesss and
forebodings of modern dimen
sions. But every family any
where has its own kind of in
volvement and lively children
create a magical form of special
complications which appear as
glowing imperatives of the sit
uations.
“The Great Fair” is a unique
book in which a mature writer
suceeds in presenting his early
years—childhood and youth—in
unique fashion.
Translated by Tamara Kahana,
this book is a treasure as only
Sholom Aleichem could imagine
and transmit it and transform
the magical traits of youngsters
into universal interest and age
less quality for Jewish people.
This paper bade ($1.50 Collier
Books) is no newly discovered
manuscript. Sholom Aleichem
affkfonadas will likely have
caught it on a previous go-round
as it must surely have appeared
in hardback before. The rest of
us and new generations coming
up will find it quite delightful
