where supply cannot for a period
of time be equal to demand.
Much might have been said also
about the necessity OF accepting
the view that for some years to
come our military establishment
must be kept very much above any
normal peace-tine standard. We
are not at war. do not believe
we are going to be at war again.
But we are not at peace. We are
in a period between war and peace
"a period when armed force is
necessary not in order to shoot
but to sustain authority. It is a
period Of pacification and it will
last for several years. During this
period we must maintain the arm
ed forces at an impressive level,
and though we must count the cost,
we must pay it.
There is no doubt that we can
pay it. We could certainly have
fought the war for several more
years, and financially have been
still not only a solvent but a rich
nation. The cost of the postwar
military establishment, big though
it is by pre-war peace-time stand
ards, is an insignificant fraction OF
what another two years of war
would have cost.
There are many immediate ques-
tons, from Iran and India to Spain
and Argentina, which perplex and
harass all who consider them. Just

When anyone who writes regu.

while imaging the articles he

comfortable and to export more of
it to the hungry than we can con-

which is good and great under
every flag, political system and
theology, and transcends them all.
It is a cause, moreover, in which
if we fail to respond, we shall not
easily be able to forgive ourselves.

real question about all these cred

that can be arranged if the use of
the credits is properly spaced over
