CURRENT COMMENT
I DON'T believe patriotism is decadent in any of our manhood. I
mean by patriotism, love of country. But I do believe that love
for government is quite decadent, because of the iniquities of gov
ernment. These are hard days lor governments all over5 the earth. But they
have made it hard for themselves. Now if men seem to love America less
than they did, there is a reason, for it. It is to be found in the spirit of toler
ance and charity that has permeated all our thought of life of late years..
We have been preaching and writing and talking about a world federation
for a number of years now. And the people have begun to think in these
terms.
"He is not an American at all who wants liberty but will not give it.
In fact the best patriotic American is he who thinks fearlessly for his coun
try's good and speaks his convictions, even against his government. The real
traitor is ho who will allow himself to be smothered into silence by anyone,
even those in authority.
"Every man who preached against war before we went into it and for
charity among nations and then backslid, is responsible with us for the lax
interest in the present war. We cannot now change our minds even though
we are commanded to do so. There is not less patriotism than formerly. We
do not love ourselves less, but we love others more.
"It is hopeful that patriotism thinks today. It is promising that pa
triotism refuses to wear shackles any longer. It is a splendid thing that
men will not longer be owned and heralded like so many cattle. It means
a freer and better America.
"It means America will be free at home. It means that America will
afford every man a chance to help her, and a chance to develop his best as
a part of her greatness. Patriotism was never saner and surer than now.
Governments may endeavor to control, the people for their own ends, but the
people will have the last say. Our government, along with every other, is
impotent before the people. The people are beginning to realize this, and
they are taking their own way of doing things and adopting their own plans
for the country's good, regardless of what the government may plan for them.
"Let us remember that America is not the government; it Is the country.
Let us remember that the country is for the common good and that the gov
ernment is the servant, not the master of that common good, and that it
deserves its life only so long as it serves that common good well." By Rev.
Ernest F. Weise in Bridgeport Life.
y'HOSE rich fellows, munitions makers and others, who brought on the
C J war, according to the pacifists, what fools they are! They might
" have sat tight and continued to make money off the warring nations by
selling them supplies. They might have continued to loan those nations money
and collect the interest. But they forced us into war and now they have to pay
heavy income and profit and other taxes. And as the war goes on the taxes
will become heavier, while their capital will be diminished in value. Moreover,
while we were not at war we might have gone on building up our foreign trade
with countries not at war. The interests that promoted the Avar appear to have
been hoist on their own petard. They were getting theirs nicely while we were
out of war, but now they are getting theirs in quite the opposite sense. Of
course if the allies lost the war wo might have lost the money we loaned them
to carry it on, but now that we are in the war our capitalists have to risk ten or
twenty times what they stood to lose before.
It is a too common saying that we are in the war to make money. Europe
was saying a while back that we stayed out of the war to make money. I don't
see how we are going to make money out of the war to any extent. Wo cannot
collect any indemnity from anyone; at least we will not. We have got to pay
for our share in the war and for the shares of others, too. The profiteers will
be increasingly relieved of their profits as those profits are revealed. Five years
of war will destroy industry at the present rate of cost of war. Taxes will be
so heavy that industry will not bo able to bear up under it. When the tax upon
work and production reaches the stage of intolerabllity, perhaps we shall begin
to tax the wealth that is produced by everybody and engrossed by the few.
The country is going to lose money directly by going into the war. Wo
shall have a debt in many billions to pay. Who will pay it? Not the producers,
when the war shall have opened their eyes. There will be but one way to re
store industry, by opening up all natural resources to use, by destroying all mon-
