Agnew said, “When we allow a creeping permissiveness to per meate every aspect of our rela tions with our young people we are not helping them, we are harming them ...” “If this hard sense brings down upon us the label of being squares, then we’ll just have to live with it because it is up to each one of us to squarely face up to the responsibility of being mature human beings.” Agnew said the messages of the drug culture get by “largely because good citizens don’t notice it or because the message is too loud to hear. This propaganda will wither under the light of pitiless publicity . . .” “You can set an example within your own family, of firm ness with understanding, of the kind of authority with compas sion that will prevent the loneli ness that makes people run for the escape hatches of the drug culture,” he stated. attention!
