not, in their own character and con-
duct, prepared to meet the demands
of this life-and-death issue.
Our major interests, it would seem,
are outside of this war, which Is
bound to affect all our interests. We
grumble at the rising costs of living,
and at new taxes, but still We do not
perceive that the price that every
one must pay for the redemption of
the race is far more personal and
revolutionary. We cannot continue
in our present mood of frivolity, of
self-pleasing, of impenitence, of care
lessness and of materialism, if we
really mean to carry on the present
world struggle to the only conclusion
that is compatible with humanity S
best ideals.
So fit folk are the first need-fit
to achieve, fit to endure, fit to aspire,
fit to deny. Life has got to be lifted
up to a higher plane Of self-denial
and of self-betterment. for the COM
mon well-being. The person who
has never learned to subordinate a
desire to a duty is still in the in
fantile stage. This giving up for the
sake of going up is an entail of de-
mocracy and religion. Christianity's
stern test is that a man shall deny
himself, and take up his cross. Self
sacrifice underlies and climaXes the
life of our Leader
Against totahtarianism in all OF
its forms-Nazi-Em, Fascism, Com
munism, Japanism-we must oppose
patriotism which stands for the
old Christian ideals of self-sacrihce
Of brotherly love and of loyalty to
the will of our common Father. In
a recent book, You Can Defend
America" the situation is summa-
rized: The fight is on. The fight
against our softness, graft, laziness,
extravaganza, buck-passing. mate
rialism-allies of the fifth column
The battle line runs through every
home, every Office, every factory
every farm. 1t is a daily battle It
takes courage. Imagination. You've
got to be tough inside. You've got
to think hard. and live clean"
A Stateman Speaks.
Ella Wheeler Wilcox wrote a poem
in which she classified humanity
into two groups, 'lifters" and lean
ers." Some of us bear society's bur-
dens: and others of us are burdens
for society to bear. We have over
many of the latter. The present
emergency is clarion call for
'lifters," mature spirits who will
exert whatever power is necessary
to promote the common welfare.
In an address before the Southern
Baptist Convention, Representative
Joseph W. Bryson put the matter
tersely in its meaning for American
citizens: Support to the utmost
whatever serves to increase our ma
tional strength and unity; oppose
to the utmost whatever serves to
destroy our national strength and
unity"
