fall below them in nobility OF spirit? =?
I don't believe you are"
don't like to write about war Or
to think about it, but reckon Private
Peat is right, there are some things
worse than war, as horrible as it IS.
1t is worse to be coward or a hypc-
.crite. And for those who get out i
will prove a wonderful school, great
postgraduate university. And lots
of 'em are coming back to u.s. An3
it won't be so long before they come.

But another point ] want to make
is, that if the boys over there caE;
make the sacrifice they are making.
and endure the harGships they are
enduring, and with it all be unse!f5il
and generous as that fellow was Who
covered the body of his pal with his
overccat because he looked so cciti
and went shivering and bleeding and
muddy himself, can't We do more and
sacrifice more and do it with less
complaining and a more cheerful
spirit Yes, and the first thing that
We should do is to send the profteers
and big salaried and bomb proof
fellows who are living in the lap cf
luxury and sending OUT appeals to us
poor devils who are already suffer
ing, to save and buy thrift stamps--
yes, send these fellows to the stock
ade and make them work and stint
little themselves. Did you read the
testimony in the Investigation of the
graft at Hog Island? And by the
way, it is properly named if what is
true that has been said of the way
they did. Paying men $4,000 a year
and bonus of six thousand. Twice
what they received from the corpcr-
ations for the same job. And to DO
nothing. Not much patriotism in
that sort of grating. and not much
sacrifice. Yet the government per
mits it and then pays lot of stenog-
raphers and clerks to send out liter
ature-that's what they call it-but
not much literature to it, to tell lis
poor devils who scarcely have ccrS..
bread and bacon, that we must coli
serve and save and buy thrift stamps
and liberty bonds in order TO win the
war. It seems to me that we are
saving that these fellows may have
big pay and get rich on our savi145
If it went to help our boys, or 10
make them more comfortable, all CO
us would do the thing with a great
deal more grace and pleasure. But
to help the government permit such
stealing it does not go down weli.
The government ought to send these
profiteers down to hell a while, ard
maybe they would come back sn;1
inc a different sort of smile-provia-
ed they got back.
But as Private Peat says, the war
has taught us and will teach us 4
broader vision of things, and will
give US the elbow touch with the ns-
tions of the world, and when we get
through there will be broader and
2 deeDer sympathy among the ma
tions Of earth. It will teach us love
Of rn"ntrv. love Of humanity, and
trust in God, and maybe will not be
