WHAT GERMAN VICTORY MEANS
TO ME

Contributed. by Arthur Somers
Roche to the National Security Lea
CUES campaign of Patriotism Through
Education.)
I have son two years old. l want
him to be sportsman. want him to
be able to win like gentleman, to
lose like a man. ! want him to grow
I'D in a world where a victory gained
by foul tactics is incomprehensible. |
want him to feel, always, that his
word is sacred, that no advantage, to
himself or others, justifes the viola
ton of his oath. l want him to rever-
ence the memory of his mother, to
look upon all women with clean eyes.
want him to grant, as a matter OF
fact. the demands of weakness upon
strength. I want him to look upon
human beings as individuals, to &C
cept cheerfully another's right to be-
lief contrary to his own. l want nm
to gain his own beliefs through
searching his own soul, not by blindly
accepting the dicta of others. want
him to believe in a generous God, a
God Who is a Gentleman, not de-
moniac God who plays favorites.
One judges a man by his professed
beliefs, by his acknowledged deeds.
One judges race in the same manner,
BY their professed beliefs, by their
acknowledged deeds, judge the Ger
mans. And l firmly believe that "a
world ruled by them would be world
in which it would be impossible for my
son to grow up to be the man I want
him to be.

be hard at work to confuse the Presi-

intends to demonstrate that the
