Military power obsolete: RMHUniversity of Chicago, June 27, 1950 31 Warns against suppression ofindependent thought, critics“The day of force as the determining factor in worldaffairs ended with our atomic monopoly.”So spoke the University’s Chancellor, Robert M. Hutchinsbefore the second convocation for June 1950 graduatesheld recently. Pointing to the encouragement of “inde¬pendent; thought and criticism as the best demonstrationof the vitality of the truthsinscribed in our hearts” asthe path of world leadership,Hutchins warned that we are in¬stead suppressing them.

We were spwed the neces¬sity of acquiring experience.We all know what American educa¬tion has been. II has been a mervelousthing, for It has rested on the faiththat everybody should be educated, andits inadequacy to our present tasksshould not blind us to the originalityand power of the spirit that has ani¬mated it since the Northwest OrdinanceThe ideal that everybody should beeducated has called forth an effort inmass education unparalleled ig history.The practical difficulties of recruitinga staff and building a plant and theintellectual difficulties of framing acourse of study have been so great thatwe have largely abandoned the effort tofind out what educaton is and what it isfor and have seemed to conclude thateducation means being in school andthat what goes on there does not mattermuch anyway.Approisol 4iHicttltBut thi.'i conclusion \is to be taken astemporary, reflecting the groping of acountry struggling toward the attain¬ment of a noble aim without a modelto guide It. It Is always hard to appraisethe results of education, for we cannotyet tell with sny assurance what hasdetermined the usefulness of one manand the worthlessness of another. Inthis country, it is particularly hard toappraise education, because we have hadsuch great resources and so many op¬portunities that we could have an edu¬cational system that was innocuous,or even harmful, without feeling it, oreven knowing it.We must admit that our educationhas been very little of that philosoph¬ical, historical kind which would eta-able us to understand what is going onin the world and to exercise an in¬formed, critical judgment upon it.

Hutchins.. . .(Continued from pp.ge 1)atlon of Independence. “We hold these,truths to be self evident, that all menare created equal, that they are endowedby their creator with certain unalien¬able rights, that among these «are life,liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.That to secure these rights govern¬ments are instituted among men. deriv¬ing their Jvist powers from the consentof the governed.”Now suddenly we find ourselves, with¬out experience and without much edu¬cation, facing a power whose leadersregard as false the truths inscribed onour hearts. ...The struggle is wie for the loyaltyand support of mankind as we movetoward the realization, on a world scale,of the truths inscribed on our hearts.This Is not primarily a military struggle.Though the Russans have not neglectedmUltary preparations, their propagandasuggests that they know the struggle Isnot prlmarUy military. When they ex-plod^ their first atomic bomb, they didnot say that they were going to killeverybody with it. They said- that theywere going to move mountains. Irrigatewhole ccmtlnents, and make the desertto blossom as the rose. Their mostcharacteristic pose is that of harbingersof a new day of peace and plenty.Militory idea explodedThe whole conception of military pow¬er as decisive exploded with the firstRussian atomic boifcb Military powerIs of value when it enables you to dosomething to somebody else that hecannot do to you at about the sametime to about the same exttent. ButWilliam Laurence of the New YorkTimes estimated long ago that if theRussians could set off fifty primitiveatomic bombs In this country theycould kill forty million Americans Pre¬sumably If a hydrogen bomb can bemade, the Russians can make It, andcan then achieve the same effect withfive or six bombs. The day of force Isthe determining factor In world affairsended with our atomic monopoly.Yet the truths Inscribed on our heartsare overlaid with a deep stratum ofwhat we like to call realism, which Islittle but stubborn conventionality.Since military power is the ancient andtime-honored way of being strong, wemust have It, and have more of It thenanybody else, even though It will nowweaken ua and delude ua, and eventhough it is irrelevant to the kind ofstruggle in which we are engaged.In addltlca to the vain and irrelevanteffort to build up overwhelming militarypower, we have begun an unprecedentedattempt to ensure the conformity ofour citizens. That Is, of course, whollyinappropriate to the struggle In whichwe are engaged, for the liberty inscribedon our hearts has traditionally Includedfreedom of thought, speech, and associa¬tion, and now, if ever. Is the time toshow the world the power and realityof our devotion to these principles. Wehave become Instead the prisoners ofour own propaganda, and It Is smallconsolation that the State Department,which Is responsible for much of thepropaganda, has become, through Sena-for McCarthy, a conspicuous victim ofIt.The proce.ss of insisting on the con¬formity of our citizens will underminedemocracy, because, as Professor Taw-ney has said, the foundation of democ¬racy Is that sense of spiritual independ¬ence which nerves the Individual tostand alone against the powers of thisworld. The consequences of dissent InAmerica today are so serious as to un¬nerve and Intimidate the individual,whether he Is a government official, auniversity president, or a private citizen.Instead of encouraging Independentthought and criticism as the best de¬monstration of the vitality of the truthsinscribed on our hearts, we are busilyengaged In suppressing them. The ef¬fort to exact a special oath from thefaculty of the University of Californiaand to attach security riders to the Na¬tional Science Foundation Bills por¬tends the gravest dangers to the higherlearning in America, for It can fiour-ish only If criticism can flourish. If itIs impossible for a man to be a pro¬fessor unless he holds views that themajority will approve, then the Ameri¬can universities will become little morethan detention homes for the young,with technical schools attached. Theintellectual level of a detention homeIs perhaps not of much importance. TheImportant thing Is that the Inmates bedetained. But the technological recordof totalitarian countries suggests thateven a technical school cannot longmaintain a high standard of technicalactivity if the staff Is subjected toother tests than the requirement thatIt be able to do the work expected of it.Obsessed with bombsWe have been so obsessed with hypo¬thetical hydrogen bombs and the pos¬sible aberrations of minor officials thatwe have failed to notice that there Is agreat revolution going on In the world.The question Is whether It shall be arevolution that rests on devotion to thetruths Inscribed on our hearts and endswhere the American Revolution endedor one that uses the slogans of Com¬munism and ends where the RussianRevolution ended. The faith of ourfathers was that the truths inscribedon our hearts were Inscribed on thehearts of all men; Thomas Jefferson didnot believe that he was Inventing any¬thing. The truths he spoke of wereself-evident. He explained the separa¬tion of the colonies from England interms to which he expected the Instan¬taneous assent of mankind.• I believe that the truths of the Dec¬laration of Independence are self-evi¬dent. I believe that they still awakenan Instantaneous response in the heartsof all men. I believe that they consti¬tute the best weapon In the struggleIn which we are engaged.If they are to be an effective weapon^we have to live by them. And. If weare to live by them, we have to under¬stand them. Though these truths areself-evident, they are not self-explana¬tory and self-operating. Here we face 'I wont my boy to bo normolla Jxost of basic problems. Is equalitymerely equality of opportunity, and doesequality of opportunity mean merelythat everybody shall have an equalchance to get the best of everybodyelse? Dofs liberty mean simply doingas you please without interference fromthe government and without any re¬sponsibility to the community? Is thepursuit of happiness merely the pursuitof my happiness? If I pursue my privateadvantage am I pursuing happiness, andshall I, in pursuing my private advan¬tage. be led by an invisible hand topromote the common good? Ddht hap¬piness consist In the possession of re¬frigerators. washing machines, and auto¬mobiles. with a set of the EncyclopaediaBrltannica thrown in? Does the factthat governments are Instituted to se¬cure our rights mean that I have theright to demand anirthlng from thegovernment that I and my pressureroup want, while at the same timeand my pressure group insist in thename of liberty on freedom from thegovernment?Truths to surfocoWe need to bring to the surface thetruths inscribed on our hearts and vig¬orously reinterpret and apply them; forwe know that we have no longer thesimple agrarian society of 1776 Nowwe must find out whether competitioncan be a substitute for justice, andwhether. If Indolence and the love ofmoney are the twin curses of mankindthe way to overcome the first Is toappeal to the second. We must dis¬cover, some means of avoiding the con¬clusion of Bernanos, that a mechanicalcivilization produces merchandise anddevours men. Is there a way In whichmodern man will be able to live with¬out becoming daily less and less human?What Is the relation of private profitand the needs of the community in anindustrial age? How can we now accom¬modate the legitimate demands of so¬ciety and the Imprescriptible rightsof the human person? How can weintegrate the currents of contemporaryideas and modem scientific knowledgein a more ordered vision of the worldand arrive at a synthesis that, while preserving variety and difference, laysthe foundation for understanding,communication, and community, withinour own country and throughout theworld? These are hard questions, andthe frivolity of American education Isrevealed by the fact that In Its desireto gratify popular whims it has not pre¬pared our people even to discuss thesequestions or to take them seriously.The difficulty with acquiring experi¬ence is that under modern conditionsone false move can lead to calamity.The difficulty with education is that Ittakes time.If we can avoid blundering into war,or talking ourselves into it, or scaringthe Russians into it, we may have thetime. We may then be able to generateenough independent thought within thecountry so that we can provide theworld with a demonstration of a nationliving by the truths that are Inscribedon the hearts of all men. This will re¬quire the protection of our institutionsof higher learning from those who wishto convert them from centers of inde¬pendent thought Into nursery schools.It will require the most drastic recon¬sideration and reformation of our edu¬cational program. The way Is long andhard; but the alternative is a catas¬trophe.Members of Hie grouofing doss:Your university has tried to help youbegin to gain the kind of education thatthe American people at this day require.You have learned what the basic ques¬tions are, what the possible answersmav be. and how to start the effort tofind them for yourselves.

Hutchins .Continued from page 1)atk>n of Independence. “We hold thesetrutlis to be self evident, that all menare created equal, that they are endowedby their creator With certain ipiallen-able rights, that among these are life,liberty, and the pursuit of happiuese.That to secure these rights govern¬ments are instituted among men, deriv¬ing their Ju.st powers from the consentof the governed.”Now suddenly we And ourselves, with¬out experience and without much edu¬cation, facing a power whose leadersregard as false the truths Inscribed onour hearts. . . .The struggle Is one for the loyaltyand support of mankind as we movetoward the realization, on a world scale,of the truths inscribed on our hearts.This is not primarily a military struggle.Though the Russana have not neglectedmilitary preparations, their propagandasuggests that they know the struggle isnot primarily military. When they ex¬ploded their first atomic bomb, they didnot say that they were going to klUeverybody vrlth It. They said that theywere going to move mountains. Irrigatewhole continents, and make the desertto blossom as the rose. Their mostcharacteristic pose Is that of harbingersof a new day of peace and plenty.Military idea explodedThe whole conception of military pow¬er as decisive exploded with the firstRussian atomic bomb Military poweris of value when It enables you to dosomething to somebody else that hecannot do to you at aoout the sametime to about the same extent. ButWilliam Laurence of the New YorkTimes estimated long ago that If theRu&^iians could set off fifty primitiveatomic bombs In this country theycould kill forty million. Americans. Pre¬sumably If a hydrogen bomb can bemade, the Russians can make It. andcan then achieve the same effect withfive or six bombs. The day of force Isthe determining factor In world affairsended with otia atomic monopoly.Yet the truths Inscribed on our heartsare overlaid with a deep stratum ofwhat we like to cal! realism, which Islittle but stubborn conventionality.Since military power Is the ancient andtime-honored way of being strong, wemust have It, and have more of it thenanybody else, even though It will nowweaken us and delude us. and eventhough It Is Irrelevant to the kind ofstruggle In wh'icli we are engaged.In addition to the vain and Irrelevanteffort to build up overwhelming militarypower, Ve have begun an unprecedentedattempt to ensure the conformity ofour citizens. That Is, of course, whollyinappropriate to the struggle In whichwe are engaged, for the liberty inscribedon our hearts has traditionally Includedfreedom of thought, speech, and associa¬tion, and now. If ever. Is the time tashow the world the power and realityof our devotion to these principles. Wehave become In.stead the prisoners ofour own propaganda, and It Is smallconsolation that the State Department,which Is responsible for much cf thepropaganda, has become, through Sena¬tor McCarthy, a con.cplcuous victim ofIt.The process of Insisting on the con¬formity of our citizens will underminedemocracy, because, as Professor Taw-ney has said, the founqatlon of democ¬racy Is that sense of spiritual Independ¬ence which nerves the Individual tostand alone against the powers of thisworld. The consequences of dissent InAmerica today are so serious as to un¬nerve and Intimidate the Individual,whether he Is a government official, auniversity president, or a private citizen.Instead of encouraging Independentthought and criticism as the best de¬monstration of the vitality of the truthsinscribed on our hearts, we are busilyengaged in suppicoins The ef¬fort to exact a special oath from thefaculty of the University of Californiaand to attach security riders to the Na¬tional Science Foundation Bills por¬tends the grave.st dangers to the hlgh<*|.learning in America, for It can flour¬ish only If criticism can flourish If ItIs Impossible lor a man to be a pro¬fessor unless ne holds views that themajority will approve, then the Ameri¬can universities will become little morethan detention homes for the young,with technical schools attached. TheIntellectual level of a detention homeIs perhaps not of much importance. TheImportant thing Is that the Inmates bedetained. But the technological recordof totalitarian countries suggests thateven a technical school cannot longmaintain a high standard of technicalactivity If the staff Is subjected toother tests than the requirement thatIt be able to do the work expected of ItObsessed with bombsWe have been so obsessed with hypo¬thetical hydrogen bombs and the pos¬sible aberrations of minor officials thatwe have failed to notice that there Is agreat revolution going on in the world.The question is whether It shall be arevolution that rests on devotion to thetruths inscribed on our hearts and er'lswhere the American Revolution endedor one that uses the slogans of Com¬munism and ends where the RussianRevolution ended. The faith of ourfathers was that the truths Inscribedon our hearts were Inscribed on thehearts of all men; Thomas Jefferson didnot believe that he was Inventing any¬thing. The truths he spoke of wereself-evident. He explained the separa¬tion of the colonies from England Interms to which he expected the Instan¬taneous assent of mankind.I believe that the truths of the Dec¬laration of Independence are self-evi¬dent. I believe -that they still awakenan Instantaneous response in the heartsof all men. I believe that they consti¬tute the best weapon In the struggleIn which we are engaged.If they are to be an effective weapon^we have to live by them. And. if weare to live by them, v/e have to under¬stand them. Though these truths areself-evident, they are not self-explana¬tory And self-operating. Here we face ‘V'I want my boy to b« normalla host of basic problems. Is equalitymerely equality of opportunity, and doesequality of opportunity mean merelythat everybody shalt have an equalchance to get the best of everybodyelse? Does liberty mean simply doingas you please without interference fromthe government and without any re¬sponsibility to the community? Ik thepursuit of happiness merely the pursuitof my happiness? If I pursue my privateadvantage am I pursuing happiness, andshall I, In pursuing my private advan¬tage, be led by an Invisible hand topromote the common good? Does hap¬piness consist In the possession of re¬frigerators, washing machines, and auto¬mobiles, with a set of the EncyclopaediaBrltannlca thrown In? Does the factthat governments are instituted to se¬cure our rights mean that I have theright to demand anything from thegovernment that I and my pressuregroup want, while at the same timeI and my pressure group Insist in thename of liberty on fre^om from thegovernment?Truths to turfacaWe need to bring, to the surface thetruths insqrlbed on our hearts and vig¬orously reinterpret and apply them; forwe know that we have no longer thesimple agrarian society of l'/76 Nowwe must find out whether competitioncan be a substitute for Justice, andwhether. If Indolence and the love ofmoney are t^ twin curses of mankindthe way t6' Overcome the first Is t"appeal to the second. We must dls-coyr some means of avoiding the ''on-cluslon of Bernanos, that a mechanicalcivilization pi-oduces merchandise anddevoura men. Is there a way In whichmodern^ man will be able to live with¬out becoming dally less and less human?What Is the relation of private profitand the needs of the community In anIndustrial age? How can we now accom¬modate the legitimate demands of so¬ciety ahd the Imprescriptible rightsof the human person? How can weIntegrate the currents of contemporaryIdeas and modern scientific knowledgeIn a more ordered vision of the worldand arrive at a synthesis that, while preserving variety and difference, laysthe foundation for understanding,communication, and community, withinour own country and througnout theworld? These are hard questions, andthe frivolity of American education Isrevealed by the fact that In Its desireto gratify popular whims It has not pre¬pared our people even to discuss thesequestions or to take tnem seriously.The difficulty with acquiring experi¬ence la that under modern conditionsone false move can® lead to calamity.The difficulty with education is that Ittakes time.If we can avoid blundering into war,Or talking ourselves into it, or scaringthe Russians Into it, we may have thetime. We may then be able to.generateenough Independent thought within thecountry so that we can provide theworld with a demonstration of a nationliving by the truths that are In.scrlbedon the hearts of all men. This will re¬quire the protection of our Institutionsof higher learning from those who wishto convert them from centers of Inde-?endeDt thought into nursery schools.t will require the most drastic recon¬sideration and reformation of our edu¬cational program. The way Is long andhard; but the alternative is a catas¬trophe.Members of tbe groueting dess:Your university has ttfed to help youbegin to gain the kind of education thatthe American people atrthls day requireYou have learned what tbe basic ques¬tions are, what the possible answersmay toe, and how to start the effort tofind them for yourselves.
