WAR TO REDEEM HOPE
THE NEED OF LASTING PEACE. “We are not fighting to preserve an old word, but to build a new." said Mr Anthony Eden in a recent speech. “We are not straining resources to foster the greatness of a State, but 1o win for men and women everywhere the first benefits of civilisation. This is a war to redeem hope, to live and breathe, to free our children from the haunting dread that shadows our own time, to create lor them a future where moral and spiritual values shall prevail. Twenty years ago we thought that we had won such a victory. This time —God willing—we shall not fail. We cannot live for ever armed to the teeth, or at the mercy of the next act of robber violence. Such conditions are a reversion to barbarism and there is no lasting peace that way.”
