INTERNATIONALLY.
BY Or. FRANK CRANE
Copyright. 1915. by Frank Crane)

Patriotism may be good on bad.
II is good as compared with a smaller
group consciousness bad as compared
with a larger.
That is. it is better TO be proud of be-
ing a citizen of the United States than 10
be proud OF being a citizen of New Jer-
sey or of Kokomo, Indiana
1t is just as much better, however, to
be conscious of humanity and of ones
obligations to all mankind than it is to
be for my country, right or wrong"
Internationalism is as much nobler and
more ideal than patriotism is nobler and
more ideal than statehood
Internationalism bears the same rela-
ton to patriotism as Christianity does
to Methodism or Presbyterianism.
As religious sects have their uses when
properly subordinated TO religion itself.
and as sects become vicious when they
quarrel and sacrifice the interests of re-
ligion 10 the selfish ends of their own or
ganization precisely the same way patri-
otism is beneficial only up TO the point
where it clashes with world-telfare.
above all nations is humanity
Before am an American | am hu-
man being
NJ world-citizenship takes precedence
over my nation-citizenship.
Compared 20 city loyalty, patriotism
is blessing compared to international
ism. patriotism may become curse.
It is the flame of narrow patriotism
that is today burning UP men and prop
erty in Europe.
II is because men are Germans, French
and English that they are butchering one
another If they had the international
feeling they would settle their dispute
peacably. with an eye TO the welfare OF
the human beings that compose nations
instead Of 10 national pride.
Thus. for lack of humanity, patriotism
becomes crime
The present agitation for prepared
ness for the defense of our own country
without doing anything to promote the
peace and welfare Of the world. rs dan
oerous. and will lead Us into the same
criminal patriotism we now see IN run
flower in Europe.
Preparedness can be relieved OF its
danger only as it is accompanied by some
effort 10 bring about world government.
Magazines, newspapers. politicians ana
orators advocate preparedness because IL
appeals TO popular fear and pride; thus
they get quick response IN the applause
Of the superficial.
They do not emphasize international
ism. because that is an appeal TO lntelh-.
gent courage and vision.
1t is LOT easier to induce BOY 70
FIGHT than il is To induce him to act as
"A gentleman ;o..t
In fine. preparedness. with perslstent
.e;tation for internationalism. Is good;
5nt preparedness without that is not
tpniy childish. selfish and vicious, II Is
sure national suicide.
