so far" wrote William James, war
| has been the only force that can dis
cipline u whole community" And in
your textbook on social psychology you
have read William McDougalls testi-
mony:
AS one travels up any of the larger
rivers of Borneo one meets with tribes
that are successively more warlike. In
the coast regions are peaceful COM
munities which never fight save in self
defense, and then with but poor sue
cess, while in the central regions, where
the rivers take their rise, are a num-
Der of extremely warlike tribes. whose
raids have been a constant source of
terror to the communities settled in
the lower reaches of the rivers. And
between those tribes at the center and
those in the coast regions are others
that serve as a buffer between them,
being decidedly more bellcose than the
latter but less so than the former. 1t
might be supposed that the peaceful
| coastvise people would be found to be
superior in moral qualities to their war
like neighborS but the contrary is the
case
In almost all respects the advantage
lies with the warlike tribes. Their
houses are better built, larger, and
cleaner; their domestic morality is su-
perior; they are physically stronger and
braver, and physically and mentally
more active, and, in general, are more
trustworthy. But, above all, their So
I.;, g.
efficient, because their respect for and
obedience to their chief and their 10y.
atty to their community are much
greater; each man Identifies himself
with the whole community and accepts
and Loyalty performs the social duties
laid upon him. And the moderately war
like tribes occupying the intermediate
region stand midway between them and
the people Of the coast as regards these
moral qualities"
Similarly in China and India, Nc
Dougall goes on to say, the people are
patient and long-suffering, have no
taste for var, and deSpise the military
virtues. "At the same time they seem
to be deficient in those social qualities
which may be summed up in the one
word 'conscientlOusness,' and which
are the cement of societies and essen
tial factors Of their progressive integra.
| ton In other words, war can be,
among savage peoples, powerful civ.
ili2er. Among the most peaceful races
the absence Of a warlike spirit makes
a fabby social system. And though
we have been so reluctant to enter
this conflict with Germany and though
we seek no territory, no imperial
power, and no commercial advantage,
but aim only to defeat a military au-
tocracy that is an old enemy of peace,
stll it is already evident from the
new tone Of our public life that such
social psychologists as James and Nc.
Dougal have not been wrong The war
is bringing US a private gain that we
had not counted on
In our recent struggle for the new
