MaferiaIism Caused War

Rewriting back to the quotations at the beginning of

are bascay correct. My Catholic friend quoted repre-
sents egons of progressive white citizens who must rely
Christian publications for the of Coored achieve
ment few others may be fortunate enough to Col
ored newspapers but for the most they are forced to
rely the daily papers which mostly play up crime
The statement of my Jewish friend who says that the
jew Catholic and Colored man have lot in common has
been repeatedly reairmed of late. All three are the
enemy of the Khan To-day the Jew feeling the
age old prosecutions which Catholic friends anticipate
they must endure tomorrow and which the Colored man
even now must continue endure while in uniform The
Church is the to sacrifice to save the world TINS
is shown in the Bible and throughout all world history
This is indeed the failure of many European states OF our
time Failure to sacrifice materiasms created this war

many Germans white slaves of Adoph Hitler who
