There is no excuse, SO far as war

The war so far has been pretty
much of a draw. Terms of peace
made now would therefore settle none
of the issues which precipitated hos
tilities and would hold out no prom
ise of real tranquility for Europe.
The world cannot afford to see a
peace made which settles nothing.
The only outcome of the present war
which will really benefit mankind
and restore the march of civilization
will be one reached through the dis
ieipline of suffering and defeat-one
which will open the way for disarma-
nent and recuperation and assure a
world weary of bloodshed twenty or
thirty years of cessation from strife.
