CITIZENS MUST BE WORLD CITIZENS.
"X know war, I have been thxoughit and I loathe it. The horrors oi the last war would fade into insignificance beside the pitiless, diabolical and indiscriminating destruction of the next war. The nations spent in the calendar year 1935 nearly double what they spent in the six years before' the war on armaments. ""We have had the opportunity to make democracy safe, to reduce armaments and to lay the foundation of permanent peace but we have not yet grasped it. We cannot any longer in this shrunken globe be good citizens of our own countTy unless we are good citizens of the world. . . . "Only if we abandon imperial and economie nationalism shall we make peace, restore prosperity, prepare the ground for far-reaching measures of soeial justice." — Sir Archibald Sinclair, British Liberals ' leader, speaking in London.
