because a republican administration
would be far more arrogant abroad,
and would Hooverize us again at
home.
A rivalry has existed for thousand
years between the Bishop of Rome and
the Bishop of Constantinople. That is
one cause of the cry that Russians are
atheists. Most of them are devout.
Since Turkey spread into Europe, the
Greek Church heads in Moscow Our
war party of gadget sellers, munition-
GERS welcomes one of these religious
rivals as an ally against Russia The
war party has only mammon for its
God, though it gives some loaves and
fish to its allies, whether Jews, Pro-
testants, Catholics in America, or
Brahmin princelings in India
Let Mr.. Byrnes succeed in driving

London Asia for the Asiatics" helped
Japan ride to Australia, taking Singa-
pore in a few weeks. A Chinaman or
Hindu has little to lose by change of
masters. A dozen nations will have
our atom bomb secrets in a year or
two; some may have it now. The Khy-
Der Pass would see millions of Mon
gols entering India.
Byrnes and Bevin should read of the
Moslem invasion of India under Akbar
then emperor 1540 to 1000 A. d.,
builder of universities, organizer of
just tax methods, foe of graft Millions
of educated Hindus revere the memory
of Akbar almost as much as we revere
that of George Washington.
When in World war | the Germans
used poison gas, we called them bar
barians. Poison gas was outlawed as
g weapon. All agreed not to use it.

versed in morality than we lawyers.
AS an American, | heed the argument
that the atomic bomb saved lives by
ending the war. There is another jury.
For killing hundreds Of thousands
of helpless civilians in Hiroshima and
Nagasaki, while calling ourselves
Christians, by that jury we may be
thought to be the most atrocious muir
derers since recorded history.
That jury consists Of eighty million
japanese, eighty million Germans, 40
million Italians, forty million Spani-
ards and Portuguese, one hundred,
fifty million Latin Americans. four
hundred million Chinese, four hundred
million Hindus, and a silently increas-
ing number of English and Americans
and French. If the souls of Washing
ton, Jackson, Grant, Lee, commune
with this world, they look in horror at
our deeds, Imagine Lee Smelling a
city,
Only our arrogant Imperialism pre-
vents us from realizing that the pub
lie opinion of the world is against us
and calls our claim to be a Christian
nation an abominable fraud
There is a rising crowd of Jingoes,
a war party here, the munition max
ers, financier, their dirty prostituted
irresponsible press, already suggest
ing war against Russia; that having
no rich, has no war party.
General Eisenhower, on September
q at Lincoln, Neb., said, "The barriers
to neighborliness are fear and pre-
JUDGE spawned by ignorance. We
have broken those barriers within
our own country, and are making de-
finite Roadway on the road to their
destruction in the western hemi-
sphere"
In plain English, this means there is
ar ignorant, prejudiced number of rich |
Americans trying to get us into an
other war, with the world arrayed |
against US, and against the merchant |
class of Great Britain. Carthage was
a trading nation. She was destroyed by |
the foot soldiers of Rome ION a |
peasant economy.
