must be sought not by repression, because
that will but make the outburst the
more terrible.
The revolution in France that changed
men for the time into wild beasts, and
made the civilized world stand aghast at
their fierce and bloody atrocities, has
taught rulers, crowned or uncrowned,
that repression is not the remedy.
They must take away the necessity,
seek out and remove the causes which
lead to these wild outbreaks.
The civil war has taught us that as a
nation we must be just that We can not
with impunity suffer any class OF people
to be oppressed or deprived of their part
of the common heritage. They must be
regarded and treated rs human beings,
and not as mere machine.
