it's incandescent idealism the early days
of this war was true insight, then it is no
wonder that the war drags on to sheer
exhaustion OF one or both sides, since
the catalytic agent with which the war
might be dissolved into new world
concept has ceased to be visible 1t burns
in the hearts of men everywhere, but
they find no instruments for its use
Instead we are asked to put our whole
trust in "reeking tubes and iron shards"
and to contemplate enforcing peace"
instead of establishing justice.
And this loss of idealism leaves us
only a somewhat recut pattern of that
realism" against which the world mar
shaled its youth and has spent it's blood
This new policy of realism" has not
been advanced or accepted, thoughtfully
and deliberately. 1t has grown, step by
step. At the outbreak of war there was
no thought Of extending the frontiers of
Poland to the Oder to include territories
purely German. Though the Soviets
wished to establish their frontiers on
the Curzon Line, ethnographic factors
were considered, and it was taken for
granted that Poland would be left the
oil fields, which were never in Russian
territory, and the indubitably Polish
city of Lwow
Now there Is tendency to say that
this is not our affair-not even the
affair Of our individual minds. Polish
legions are fighting side by side in italy
with our legions, and one would think
that what is their affair-their human
affairs ours, as ours is theirs. But If
We have decided to divide the world
into regions, in each of which great
power has sole control, then these le-
gions, though they stumble through the
same mud and die under the same fire,
are fighting for almost different planets.
1t all looks reasonable on the surface.
But it is like the division of a country
into monopolies. 1t seems efficient. But
since these destroy the basis of society,
by establishing profound inequalities,
forces start seething beneath their
weight which eventually overthrow
them by violence, if no other means are
found. The effect of the retreat from
principle is not only felt in Poland; it
is blowing up the whole good neighbor
policy.
And if, in this war, one party is
crushed, without finding the solvent for
those factors which produced the war,
then the war will still not be won, for
the struggle will still not be resolved.

inspired by sentiments Of humanity
toward the prisoners, and It has
been proved In the clearest way that
during the German occupation Car
retta did wonders even at gravest

Carretta probably was not the

the last innocent victim of war

his lynching, and the facts which
have now come to light, should have
restraining influence for the fu-

On the Record
By Dorothy Thompson

In the papers Of Abraham Lincoln
there is an amazing passage written for
no other eyes than his own, though
some reflection Of 1t Is in the second
inaugural address. 1t was written to-
ward the end of the Civil War, which
seemed to be dragging out endlessly, de-
spite the overwhelming weight of arms
and power that was with the North
Lincoln noted:
In great contests each party claims
to act In accordance with the will of
God. Both may be, and one must be,
wrong. God cannot be for and against
the same thing at the same time. In
the present war it is quite possible that
Gods purpose is something different
from the purpose of either party. - :
I am almost ready to say that this is
probably true, that God wills this con-
test and wills that it shall not end yet.
BY His mere great power over the minds
of the contestants He could have saved
or destroyed the Union without
human contest. Yet the contest began
And having begun He could give the
final victory to either side any day
Yet the contest proceeds"
II the object and justification Of all
&ICht ctIukBlco, upOil WlO6c QIeaQIul
altars the youngest and purest are sac
rificed, must be to discern and establish
the viii of God, which can only be inter-
preted Is justice, and humane and uni
versal principle, then mystic mind like
Lincoln's might say today that in this
war 1T Is quite possible that Gods pur-
pose is something different from the
purpose of either party"
For certainly we have gone far astray
from the purposes for which this war
began. In its beginning there was a
sense Of the indivisibility of the world,
and Of freedom and justice among all
the peoples Of the world. The principle
OF nationalism was recognized but linn
tied. Liberation meant the liberation
Of the people within their natural from
tiers, the right of people to possess the
land which their labor had built, and to
preserve and deepen the culture pecu-
liarly their own. The drawing of new
frontiers against the consent of the
peoples and for reasons wholly to do
with power was condemned. So also was
the division Of the world into great
areas Of vital space" or 'Lebensraum,"
each under the domination of a major
power. Such a concept ruled at Munich
and was repudiated by the peoples of the
world
If the insight into the nature of JUS,
tice and freedom which animated with
