Just as the world emerges from
the greatest war of its history it
finds itself confronted with the
greatest problems it has ever had
to deal with, and made more diffi¬
cult of solution by the unbalanced,
so to speak, state of mind brought
to the peoples of earth through the
physical and mental sufferings to
which they have been exposed
since July 28, 1914, when the
match was lighted that set.fire to
the world.
We find ourselves confronted
with a proposition to league our¬
selves with other nations that wars
may be made as far as possible an
evil of the past. Many of the
nation’s, as well as the world’s,
most capable men are using their
very best effort to accomplish this
most worthy task. But it is no easy
tusk for they are met with the
strongest opposition that can be
put up against it, and the only
conclusion we can come to is that
there are yet thousands of men
who are determined that they shall
not be deprived the privilege of
making fortunes—yea, mountains
of money—through this damnable
system of lawful human butchery
and starvation to men, women and
children of the common classes,
called war.
Men possessed of the most min¬
ute measure of righteousness can
no longer give their support to a
system that is ns corrupt as hell
itself—the making of war between
nations—for in the carrying out of
this -system those who are respon¬
sible for it enter not into the dan¬
gers of combat, but feed, like pigs
at the trough, from the blood of
their fellow men, and the skeletons
of the widows and orphans.
It is right that all people should
love their nations, when that
nation permits them to live and
enjoy the happiness of peace, just
as the members of a family should
love their parents. The nation that
gives to its inhabitants the greatest
measure of peace and prosperity
without encroaching upon the priv¬
ileges of other nations to do like¬
wise, is a nation to be admired and
sought after by all peoples of the
earth.
Say not, that this or that is im¬
possible. In doing so you class
yourself with those of hundreds of
years ago who told Columbus he
was a fool; Edison, that he never
could do it; and many others that
they were cranks and lunatics. By
the accomplishment of these things
all else has been made possible.
Then let us have a league of na¬
tions, however imperfect we may
think it is, and build to it as neces¬
sity demands, and the day will not
be far distant when the fruits of
its accomplishment will be made
manifest.
