to win-or one to lose) A few blith-

pre-war war about intervention or
non-intervention. Others are drag

disunite ourselves, and ALLEVIATE our

can win battle or two somewhere
and encourage the weathercocks
who make most of the trouble. c.
We can force upon ourselves a
dictatorship which will become nec-

d. We can sum up the consequences

cause-and "shut up voluntarily.

we prevent it.
