In the dictionary it is defined as “exemption or liberation from the control of some other person or some arbitrary power liberty independence” In the United States this liberty is t”ken for granted and almost no one questions that citizens of this country are as tree from control of an outside arbitrary power as it is possible to be in a complex modern society Increasingly however psychologists and sociologists are taking a sharper look at the traditional concept of freedom Many students of the social sciences find that our freedom is being taken away from us at an ever quickening rate We all recognize that our opinions are shaped to a considerable degree by our class religion aand neighborhood — our total environment Heredity also seems to play a rather large role here Other forces are now being recognized as important in the formation of public opinion A force of major significance is government and unfortunately it is becoming a major obstacle to the freedom of the individual It has adopted the methods and goals that our propaganda and advertisement-infestesociety has developed The product or service that is in demand in this country is not necessarily the best but it is the pro d religion and literature of ail philosophy countries An art book room is another attraction (Photo by Ted Hansen) duct or service which Is best advertised Just how much superficiality has been accepted by the American mind can be seen in California where the Republican Party has managed to shed for the moment its recent masochistic ways and has come up with a strong contender in the gubernatorial race Ronald Reagan has a good chance of becoming governor of California and his acting ability has been of no little import There is even talk of his rumiing for president in 19G8! His appearance and personality inspire confidence from many despite the fact that his political experience is not the most extensive Our federal government sometimes called the biggest business in the world has naturally been influenced by the success of advertising and propaganda In our economy Can anyone doubt that those in power at anv given time will tend to want to keep that position? The average American is willing to have his opinions fed to him and to accept whatever the propaganda experts in Washington grind out A typical example of the type of public opinion manipulation that occurs resulted from the recent fear that Red China would get enough votes this year to be admitted to the U N Various Washington officials gave hints that a change was due in our policy toward Red China thus preparing the public for acceptance of a defeat for the U S As soon as it became clear that Red China would not be admitted the United States’ “policy” became firm again As a government learns to control the citizens of a country and thereby operate more efficiently It tends to devaluate the worth of the ind’vkhnl and to impose its power arbitrarily on him llow g el In Hit (Editor’s Note: This orticle which opepared recently well m el USU as of students to Is Tribune Salt Lcke eppropa other colleges and has therefore been reprinted) STUDENT LIFE Serving The Students of Utah State University 1866 Number Volume 64 September 28 3 STAFF BRENT CHECKETTS BARRY MORTENSON EAGAR - — LINDA Editor-in-Chi- Brigham Young Umversty is picked for the Western Athletic Conference tins championship year with quarterback Virgil Carter the best in the WAC Split End Phil Odle Lineman of the Year in the WAC and fullback John Ogden who has lead the WAC in rushing for the past two years This makes a pretty good oftensive team College Pals Business Manager Managing Editor RALPH MAUGHAN JRAssociate Editor school Published tri weekly during the year except during official University holidays and final exam week by tht Associated Students of Utah State University Publication office located in Room 3 5 of the Union Building Correto spondence and change of address should be addressed 84321 Utah P O Box 1262 Station Logan University for Subscription price $1 per quarter $3 per year Entered second class mailing at the Post Office in Logan Utah 8432 - STUDENT RATES Wyoming Trip LOWERED RATES Yes ALLSTATE INSURANCE CO has records on auto insurance for students with good driving 21 to 25 years old only moles on single rates Liability $7800 for a FULL YEAR If you are paying more than this contact the local Allstate for full deAgent before paying your next new premium tails on savings LOCAL AGENTS HAROLD M PETERSEN CHARLES KLEINMAN 752-652- 5 ALWAYS WELCOME Orders Made Up To Take Home — MALTS — SUNDAES SANDWICHES IN TOWN" On Block Above Campus ThriftiChack gives you something to cheer ebout!
