Adler Dear Dr. Adler: What are the qualities which make for leadership and how can they help us ln the present world crisis? What kind of leadership will both preserve freedom. and maintain peace? What is the nature and function of a good leader?. ? . George W. Economos 156-143rd Avenue Flushing, New York Dear Mr. Economos: We jnay get some notion of the nature of leadership and the qualities we look for in a leader by paying attention to the various meanings that the verb to lead" evokes in our mind. First, to lead" means being physically out in front, aa when we refer to the lead car In a procession. Second, to lead refers to a skilled human action, as wien we speak of a trained guide leading a party to its destination. Third, to lead" mean hav-i- f lI - lng the authority to command or ' direct others. The first type of leadership is often found in some of our com- 4 I 1 munlty organizations where tha leader is not chosen for any special excellence, but only as a figurehead to front for the group. Thla very attenuated type of leadership Is usuallyrotated among-differemembera of the group. The second type of leadership is found ln educational and religious institutions. Cur recent discussion of the teacher as a guide on the road to learning la a case In point. Some religious groups refer to their heads as their "spiritual leaders." r ' Philosopher-Kin- The third type of leadership is the kind that we look for in the political community. It has been a subject of discussion in the great books for thousands of years. You may remember that Plato wanted the leader of his ideal combining all the moral republic to be a philosopher-king- , and intellectual virtues, and possessing both philosophical and practical wisdom. The aristocratic ideal of leadership that tha best man or men should govern was an element in most ancient political theories. A certain excellence ln mind and character was looked lor in the men who were to lead the community. In the early forms of society, the wisdom and experience required for leadership were deemed to reside in the elders of the community. Leaders Our experience of dictators in this century has made us leaders. Tha writings of rather leery about Mussolini and Hitler were full of praise for the leadership-principland they even chose the title of "leader" for themselves. But leaders who are above the law. or are a law unto themselves abuse this principle. A special problem occurs in modern democracy, with its representative form of government. Are the representatives of the people to be mere servants who follow the will of the voters who elect them, or are they to follow their on Judgment on public measures? Should the representative mold or follow public opinion? Makes Own Decisions The writers of the "Federalist Papers and John Stuart Mill held that the representative should be chosen for his superior wisdom and experience, and should make his own decisions. The opposite ppinion is that the winner of an "election bears a mandate of the voters to carry out specific measures. The qualities we look for in a political leader are much the 6aine now as they have always been. He must be primarily interested in the good of the community rather than in his own advancement He must have sound prao tlcal judgment and whatever special skill and knowledge la required for the particular task. d e, sot of tho Great Book of tha Western You can win a World by writing totter, not to txcood 150 words, Incorporating a for Dr, Adler to consider for including in question of general Interest this column Address totters to Dr. Mortimer J Adler, in cars of ttiia newspaper.
