(Editor 1 ^ Note: This letter was
received in connection with the
speech given last week by William
J. Ellena at one of the meetings
of school administrators. It is a
copy of the one sent to Ellena.)
Dear Mr. Ellena:
I have read a repbi’t of the ad
dress you made to some five hun
dred school people at Texas A&M.
It is surprising that educated
men such as yourself have sur
rendered your individual initiative
to the school of one-world social
ism, central control and the loss
of all individual responsibility. For
a thinking American to advocate
federal aid to education is beyond
my comprehension.
This country has been built on
individual responsibility, and not
on the socialistic trend of trans
ferring all problems to some bu
reau in Washington. People such
as you have lost all of their indi
vidual responsibility and want to
train all future generations in
their own mold with this insidious
federal aid to education program.
Statistics do not verify the claim
that local school districts have
failed to fulfill their obligations.
This is merely another method of
Keynes Socialism to destroy this
republic.
You state that “federal control
is not dangerous, but some of it
would be eminently desirable.”
How naive can you be? Federal
control means the loss of individ
ual freedom for students, teachers
and local school officials. It means
that future generations will be ro
bots for the glorification of the
Washington bureaucracy. As the
father of six children I hope and
pray that my child will never set
tle for the minimum standards of
morals, responsibility, integrity
and ideals as held by many of the
bureaucrats now in Washington.
If they do not rise above this
crowd of robots I will be very dis
appointed.
