The fellow who gets out into
the middle OF river on a float
ing log must get out or drown,
and it doesn't really matter how
he got out there. 1t is the same
thing with a country when It
gets into war. 1t has to make
all necessary arrangements to
fight it out, no matter how It
got into it. The getting in is
ancient history, the getting out
is the live issue which confrontS
us, Hence, let's talk about
whipping the other fellow, and
not about the cause of the
trouble.
