Sadly Neglected
This is not alone a war of conquests
Mate, brutality, ruthless destruction
of life and property have
always accompanied wars But there
is something apparently so subtle, so
Intangible. 90 sinister about this war
that creeps ahead of it like a blight
sapping the vitality of nations about
to be attacked.
It in a war of Ideologies It is a
war between totalitarianism and Democracies
It Is a war between slavery
and freedom?between the law
of the Jungle and (he ethics oT civilization?between
Nazism and the spirit
of Christendom ?the gospel of the
fatherhood of God and the brotherhood
of man " It is a war of force
and hate which tan never prevail
against the trinity?faith, hope and
charily. The war lords who are
crushing Kurope are out to de-Cbrlstiani/.c
the-l-arth, and to substitute
therefor, worship of the state ? or
leader There i??<*t be no other God.
A direct challenge to spiritual forces
that cremated our civilization?giving
freedom to human conscience.

There ar?- only certain mental types
In this country to which Nazi doc11-ines
appeal it offers a wonderfUi
opportunity for paranoiac* to air their
delusions of grandeur, and for scheming
demagogues to attempt to harangue
themselves into office, li la ?<tractive
to the discontented elements
who never made gcvod at anything,
and are willing to try something new
for a change; It is comforting to the
neurotica anil feeblo minded who
want 10 esc ape responsibilities, leaving
ir all to the state at the expense
of their freedom
But It has 110 place in the lives of
those men of our nation possessed of
rugged individualism, who stand with,
(Nun feet planted firmiv upon the'
ground, chin up. and looking thej
world squarely in the eye Such men
invite responsibility, challenge opposi-j
tion. and demand their right to earn1
an honest living without government j
