before the law? Must we deny free
dom of speech or worship to those
who do not think as we do? Must we
keep some people in the shackles of
ignorance for fear that learning would
lift them to our level? Are we afraid
to give to all men the rights we claim
for ourselves?
Are we afraid to do Justice?
'Th^ world Is too small for anything
but brotherhood.* But to eslahllsh
brotherhood, there must be justice to
ward all men. Whoever fears .Justice
for others will practise injustice upon
others.
Are we afraid to do Justice?
The one way to make sure that
thvre will not be another war Is to
mete out justice toward all men every
where—a justice based upon equality
before the law; and before God. Not
a maudlin Lady Bountiful charity to
ward the misfortunate, but a ^alr ad-
minlstratfoh of the law of brotherhood
without senseless distinctions of race,
color, or theory. To quote again from
a religious paper: “God has made this
earth rich enough for everybody’s
need, but not rich enough for any
body’s greed.”
Are we afraid to do justice?
