Putting Peace Across
LLOYD GEORGE spoke a true
word the other day before the

"
word the other day before the
- National Free Church Coun-
Gil in London when he urged the
churches to make strong fight
against war. He reminded them of
the cry, during the war, of never
again."
As a contrast to the feeling then
he pointed out the present fact of
increased armaments in the new or
restored nations. He pointed out
the prevalence of national animos-
tiles, fears, suspicious, ambitions.
More terrible machines are being
constructed than ever before. Prep
arations for a war even more de-
structive than the last are already
being made. The next war, he de-
clared, will, if it is allowed to
come, "be a war on civilization it.
self" g..
= 1t seems clear that if we are to
have peace we must work for it all
the time. There are certainly many
different kinds of forces at work
leading to war, forces which never
cease, never sleep; forces derived
from mans nature and from the
organization Of our society.
But there are also forces derived
from mans nature and man 8 CIV
ilization and true culture which if
constantly aroused and developed
will lead to peace, These, we must
hope, are stronger than the forces
opposed to them. But they cannot
win unless we work ceaselessly on
their side.
And we must work practically
and technically and be prepared to
make sacrifices. Mere sentimental
attitudes toward peace, in which
even the enemies of peace will join,
are not enough. We must get on
the technical job, and put peace
over.
