GUARANTEEING THE PEACE
WHEN THE WAR IS WON. “Suppose we boat Germany, is them any assurance that we shall not get a repetition of what happened after the last war?” asked Mr W. J. Brown in a recent broadcast talk. “I think there is. There is an old Eastern adage which runs as follows:— If thine enemy deceive thee once, blame him: If he deceive thee twice, blame thyself and him: If he deceive thee a third time, blame thysel f. Twice in our lifetime Germany has calculatedly launched war against the civilised world. Twice it has flung millions upon millions of people into danger and suffering and death. Twice it has interrupted the ordered evolution of the world. It is in my bones that European civilisation, this time, please God. permanently reinforced by America, will not, cannot, and dare not, fail to make arrangements to guarantee continuing peace when this war is won."
