with nothing left to imagination which moro could stark a dark doad world than was by tbia storn tempest torn* If wo heed not thoso portentOua shadows over th© ©arth lmponding and fali to prevent suoh an ovil ©vent, w© should b© of rometn-borlng minds in our predestined hour of aorrow that nov©r can w© go back to then to botter begln again*

Ar© w© so irreconcilable of reform and eo insonsibl© of consclenc© character that we ar© lndlsposod to make amonds to tbose w© hav© by aggression wronged, and porsist in force and fala© pretense, annezlng of other pooplea ©arth? Aro w© wy ling to romain content with this speciea of visoioua and covex atealing which to som© easier than earning seems and by eziating stan-darda of ethic&l undorstanding is appraised aa not unlike th© old robber rights whon brigandag© was in power and now asaosaed to b© the downward obsession of an archaic order of a decadent past - with refie* of backward urg© toward a power politica disunity of separata spheres of forco, where ©ach may mak© and break treaties to meet th© need of arrogant aims, and while profossing to car© for peace - retain th© claim of right to aggress, for no mor© yalid reason than that others did so in an obsolete past - and by this untenable contention ar© uncon-sciously contending that others shall hav© the right to do so after than. Th© sum total of those tokens, tacitly is revealing that thoy are not now honestly fighting aggr©salon but only a greater rival of it - and in this inadvertent way and to this degree ar© allied with th© ©nemy - a preposterous peace it would be on thes© intolerable terms.

Shall w© not ris© above th© pond©rabie attributes and brut© of bulk and intolerance adhesions of lowor strata mind to dotour around th© profound of incontrov©rtible truth and rond morę inaolvont our^insufficient intelleot to peaceful sottle disputes, aMMlndMfng Wave trains of llliclt thought and mallce propenaity which doea but recours© us to war, and arouse th© voic© of yiolono© to boasting - TJhis gosslp makes my guts laugh about th© fair rules of war - why pretend not to know what guns and gaa ar© for - only fools talk of peaoe and mak© rules for other people'a war - wars have Just bogun - blggor wara yet to come - wars th© only way to settle ąuarrols - and forc© the only appeal of fighting men - with hat© creeping in* their hearts to comfort with revenge*

Dogradation is th© pric© of crime and appeasement the pric© of peace ©nslaved - and freedom can only come from all boing well behaved in response to the march of modern time.

A serious business la world peace and security*
