THE MICHIGAN DAILY Saturday, March 29, 1 9EC", THE MICHIGAN DAILY Saturday, March 29, 1969 5 A MODERN HERO' DAILY OFFICIAL Ike: If this nation as a whole can be said to have any heroes, Dwight David hower must certainly among them. modern Eisen- r a n k As a soldier, Eisenhower's life symbolized the bitter and bloody struggle of this nation in the two most terrible wars mankind has ever brought upon itself. As a president, it was 'his sirmple and honest character, bred straight from a Kansas farm, that endeared him to the people - to that bastion of middle-class Americans living in small towns, on farms, the young families in the growing suburbs, and the aging soldiers clinging to the general's image as the last living remnant of the glory they themselves once held. Charles DeGaulle, who looked down his nose at every Amer- Symbol ican president he ever knew ex- cept John Kennedy, once said of the old general, "I am told that on the golf course Eisen- hower is much better on the putting green than with the long shots. This does not sur- prise me." The analogy is + Eisen- hower was never a man ;: ia of debate. of fine words and idealized plans for the future. As president. he was not even a skillful administrator. What Eisenhower was, however, and perhaps this is most important of all, was an ideal symbol of security and the American dream to a war-weary nation needing that more than any- thing else. Often an American president is more historically significant for what he represents than for Gen. Dwight David Eisenhower ofCsec what he does. Such a president was Eisenhower, who led the country through eight year's of domestic tranquility and respite from war despite administrative bungling in the White House. He has been ridiculed for the 1957 budget fiasco with -Treas- urer Humphrey. In the White House, he was often the last to learn abo+ imr-r+o-t n+- istrative decisions made by his understaff and the various fed- eral agencies. He was slow to react to the crisis in civil rights that arose during his years in office. He was, nevertheless, a great American, if by that we mean a man who was loved and re- vered by his people. Rising from an obscure Army post in the post-World War I years, Eisenhower was chosen by Franklin Roosevelt to lead the Allied invasion of North Africa. His African campaign was brilliant. In a single year, North Africa was destroyed as an Axis p o w e r and Rommel's once- dreaded African Corps was fi- nally defeated. Before becoming supr e m e commander. Eisen- hower conquered Sicily and squeezed fascist Italy out of the war. Eisenhower rose to the mii- tary summit in late 1943. As supreme commander of the al- lied forces in Europe, he led the mighties armed force ever assembled. On an overcast June day in 1944, Eisenhower gave the signal to begin the invasion of Normandy. Eleven months later, Nazi Germany surrender- ed unconditionally. The erstwhile Kansas farm boy was lionized in Britain as a genius or warfare and wel- comed home by cheering crowds in New York as the exemplar of the fighting man. ' Yet Eisenhower hated "this damnable thing of war," and said he wanted to see "people in my profession permanently out of a job." In 1948, Eisenhower became president of Columbia Univer- sity, leaving to assume com- mand of NATO forces in 1950. Before the political conventions in the summer of 1952, Demo- crats as well as Republicans sought him as their nominee. His la'ndslide victory in 1.956 for re-election made him the or'- ly Republican president of this century to win successive terms in the White House. Leaving office after his sec- ond term, Eisenhower was one of the first to warn against the growing influence of a "milita.y- industrial complex." The fact that the same col- lege campus over which the gen- eral presided for two years erupted into revolution last year is indicative of the change in mood this country-and espe- cially the youth of this country -has undergone since Eisen- hower stepped down from paiv. * It would be wrong for the youth of today to idolize Eisen- hower, for he represents the warlike mentality of a genera- tion soon to pass into oblivion, But at the same time we can revere and respect him as an individual who never wavered from the most sincere devotion to his country. He shall be mourned. -DAVID SPURR uriyl BULLETIN Doctoral Exams Fdward Charles Hansen. Anthropol- og-.
