which year later sprouted into war Of the world.
Do we want any more 'peace by negotia-
tons" to be followed few months later by a
new WARMTH new lineup of nations?
Ii this war is war of democracy against
despotism- "a final struggle of Western liberty
against Oriental slavery-the Armageddon Of
civilization against barbarisnl-then ''peace by
negotiation" can only be compared to a truce
between Christ and the devil
The Bible tells us that Satan took Christ up
onto high mountain and proposed peace by
negotiation and the answer Of the Savior was
war to the knife.
II come not to bring peace but sword"
said Jesus, when speaking of the conflict of right
and wrong.
If this is war between Germany and de-
mocracy-it is the final struggle
The two forces have met on countless fields
for thousands of years. But in all past ages there
were uncivized countries, peopled by free bar
barians who renewed the fight for freedom and
builded up new civilizations based on the idea
of individual liberty.
Today there none such. The whole world
is in the death grapple and democracy must win
or perish.
There will never be "another chance" for
democratic principles if Prussia dominates the
world and sets up her system in Western Europe
The best proof of that is the conduct Of the
German people today-still docile and obedient
needing not the frightful tribute they have rem
dered to their masters-unstirred by the Rus
sian revoluteion- to what all the rest of the
world sees written in flame across the skies.
