The Victims Shall Not Hush

The wretched refuse of your tenn
ing shore.
Send these, the homeless, tempest
tost to me,
I lift my lamp beside the golden
door,"
But the children fleeing from
death found it to be closed
door, with the lamp gone out. All
the doors, whatever the democratic
flag that flew over them, were
closed; all the lamps were going
out. Though the mothers asked
nothing better than to scrub floors
or wash dishes for any pittance
that would give their babies food,
that pittance, that food, that
sanctuary again and again We
have refused. We fear that the
children might prove to be child
rem of the race of Jesus and Mary;
and we urge that the presence of
the children of His and Her race
might excite prejudice make
some of us angry. So we turn
them, they and their mothers,
back to hunger and Imprisonment,
torture, DEATH, Tnasmuch
IF that is the degree of unity
which marks the forces of free
dom throughout this world; if
that the degree of faith we have
in the principle that we must
stand together against the forces
of evil; if we believe the words
that we are members one of an
other with that degree of fervor-
then our material power obviously
cannot save us. For we have not
the moral unity sufficient to use
it; it can be overcome by those
who have less power but greater
unity. And our democracies
would perish.
Perhaps they would deserve to
perish"
If there is bitterness in that
comment on our attitude, the at
titude of Britain, the Dominions,
and this country, comment writ
ten year or so before the pres
ent war began when so many who
might have worked and fought for
us asked the chance of life, it is
perhaps because that refusal of
life by the Democracies of the
Empty Spaces (as those of the
newer worlds might be described)
was in the circumstances a deeply
bitter tragedy.
What is to be our reply when
the same sort of plea is made by
the uprooted and homeless after
the war?
It may well be that we shall
soon have to give an unequivocal
answer to the question coming
from underground Europe: when |
we who have been in hell for
years manage to get out of it, and
want to forget in a new world,
will you, because you got there
first and closed the doors against
us before the war, open them a
little to let us in?" We may have
to answer that question before
the end of the war, and the an
swer that we give may well have
a very great effect upon the peace
that we shall ultimately be able
to make.
What is going to be our policy
in respect to the type of refugee
which the circumstances of war
may produce, refugees who during
the war have fought our fight and
need a resting place and sanctu-
airy?
Whenever one asks that question |
