JUSTICE FOR ALL
RESUET OF WAR

NEW YORK, Dec. 16-"Never be-
has the soul Of America shone upon
mankind with such refulgent splendor
as it does this day." said Vice-Presi-
dent Marshall in an address Sunday
at Red Cross rally at the Metropoli-
tan opera house.
Declaring that before the war he
had feared at times "the soul OF
America had been lost because her
tendenc. seemed to be toward pure
materialism," the vice-president said
he had been reconvinced by the way
in which all classes had met the hour
Of sacrifice and duty that the creators
of the nation had .'breathed into the
body polite as its immortal soul the
principle of equal and exact justice
for all men,
Renewed assurance that the domes-
tic problems which will press for so
luton in the ensuing years will be met
in a spirit of justice and fairness for
all classes, may be drawn, the vice
president said, from the manifesto
ton of clear vision and capacity for
unprejudiced cooperation by all the
people in their united effort to defeat
the aims of autocracy
"All of us now and then have our
doubts" said Mr.. Marshall, but let
us take assurance from our conduct
during this war that the soul of Amer
lea will not be throttled by class legis-
lation of any kind nor by a mere gov
eminent of discretion; that our people,
having gazed upon the dangers which
are threatening other countries be-
cause of a total lack of comprehension
of the principles upon which our re-
public is founded, will see to it that
the representative government of the
fathers shall give to high and low
alike equal and exact justice.

patriotic Pageants"

THERE is q constant demand from
l. schools and clubs and Red Cross
societies for plays and pageants with a
patriotic appeal. The interest in drama
as drama seems to have given way to a
desire on the part of those who wish to do
their bit for propaganda plays. Naturally
the made to order supply is not up to the
standard and the book market Is flooded
with inferior and for the most part cheap
spreadeagle Calls to arms" Once in a
while a writer with taste and genuine
patriotic feeling has given rs something
to think about, something really worth
while. In these columns we noticed the
prize plays Of the Drama League; these
were among the few good patriotic plays
that have come to our notice:
Patriotic Pdgcants Of To-day, by Jose
phine Thorp and Rosamond KimbaIl, in
cludes four pieces: The Aastoer, "Pa-
triotic Festival; When Liberty Calls, "a
Pageant of the Allies; The Torch, "a
Pageant Of Democracy" and The Cal to
the Youth of America, "a Patriotic EK-
ercise for Boys and Girls" Naturally
these pageants and exercises are not
measurable by purely dramatic standards:
they make no pretence as plays. They
are, however, simple and rather effective
little pieces for children. The authors
state their purpose in these words:
"By visualizing the principles and
ideals for which this nation stands, max
ing truths concrete, and clothing them in
attractive form, it was found that they
more readily seized the imaginations and
4. inspired the loyalty of boys and girls"
These little plays glow with a patriotic
rather than artistic fervor, but in these
times we should not be too particular. As
propaganda Patriotic Pageants Of To-day
fulfils the purpose for which it was
destined.

search, of which the reader is kept COM
fortably conscious without being choked
with references" And they are brilliant
because honest; and the stories of these
gallant lives need little adornment- 1t is
legrettable but true that the Yankee has
a superstitious distrust of foreigners, too
often tinged with contempt, not the less
mischievous because it lacks specifica-
ton. Other people have always been to
us as folk strange people; therefore sus-
pect And We have incurred a good deal
of unnecessary and avoidable hostility be-
cause of this snobbery, which is based per-
haps upon a wholly uniformed and unde-
fined but influential fear.
This faint has been upon our relations
with Latin America, as it has been upon
upon those we have had with Japan.
Fortunately through force of "circum-
stances beyond our CONTROL" assisted by
some innate and underlying merit on our
part, these antipathies born of Ignorance
are giving way to a feeling at once more
generous and more profitable, born of the
fuller knowledge that comes with freel
contact. If one Of the incidental conse-
quences of the war for democracy is a
new and friendly entente between Us and
the Japanese and Latin America the bene-
fits Of OUT great adventure win be the
more valuable.
On the historical side one trenehantly
interesting thing in Prof. Robertson's ad-
mirable essay is its report of the rela-
tions between individual rebels IN North
