WHEN IS A LESSON LEARNED?

for world anarchy. Man had long
since learned the need for. law on
city. county, state and national levels.
He now must learn to extend this to
the international level. To outlaw war
the uuarrels of nations must be settled
under law just as the quarrels of man
were settled under law.
Mr.. Wilson toured his country plead
ing with his people, telling them they
must not doom the League to failure
by non-participation The destiny of
the world and of the millions of dead
in World War III was settled in 1919
by little band of willful men" who
believed that right was what you got
away with and wrong was when you
got caught.
During the days of the second war
it seemed that the people of the earth
were remembering the lesson of Wood
row Wilson. This must never be al
lowed to happen again." they cried in
their agony, I'VE, the people of the
earth, must band together to outlaw
war"
And at the end of the war all eyes
turned to San Francisco. There was
the birthplace of new world order. An
order under which peace would cease
to be a word and become reality
Where security from depredations of
outlaws would guarantee that men
could henceforth become builders.
But once again there is a little band
of willful men," World Order would
doom their ambitions to death. A phi
Iosophy of right and wrong based on a
creed cannot survive in
law.
Once again man tours his country
10 rouse his people. That man is
Henry Agard Wallace. Mr. Wallace is
armed with his voice, his heart, his
spirit and his vision of world peace.
His enemies have more imposing
lrmor. They have the press, the
ado, the congress, the worlds great
st orator and befuddled little man
ost in a big job.
1t is Henry Wallace standing alone
against the power-mad monopolists
Inder the Luce banner and their tools
an English imperial gentleman who
would maintain empire at any cost
md an obliging little man from Mis-
ouri who hasn't learned the lesson.
Mr.. Luce's handpicked foreign pol
cy expert" John Foster Dulles, whose
ife work has been to interpret a
Mythical international law so that the
of his clients, the monop-
lists, are backed by American force,
avs "The people of Europe want to
now what the U.S.A. stands for. Now
hey know"
Do they? Are Henry Luce and John
'oster Dulles the peoples choice for
pokesmen of the American Dream in
947? BY what mandate do they dare
show us to our neighbors as a
eople dedicated at the altar of the
tonic bomb to imperial aggression
} show us as the arch-enemy of world
cooperation and international law?
y the reasoning of these gentlemen,
lie U.S.A. is law unto itself and any
issenters are to be liquidated.
A Traitor-To Imperialism.
Mr.. Wallace, world citizen, is there
Y in the reasoning to the monopoly
'ess, a traitor. A traitor to what?
merican imperialism? Has imperial
m been written into our statutes
ready? Don't we have some say in
e matter in this democracy? We
tied for world cooperation in the
nited Nations. I do not remember
wing any part in reneging on that
omise, do you? Mr. Wallace, by
citing to honor our commitments in
g Atlantic Charter and in the Char
+ OF the United Nations, is called a
a1tor to his country This perver-
On of logic is a speciality of Mr.. Luce
I'd by his creed right if he gets away
It'll it and only wrong if he gets
ught.
Mr.. Luce riding American domino
IN is leading but Mr.. Wallace riding
nerican cooperation is still in the
ce. Let us help him over the hurdles
the monopoly control of press and
did, Let us listen to him before it
too late
with these memories" saws the
