"THIS IS WAR."
Sir,-This is War is an effort to stop the ordinary people thinking things out for themselves. Why weren’t these famous "stars" and poets, and the huge network of the Broadcasting Companies brought into action for the advancement of the negro race, on behalf of the sharecroppers, penal reform, and on behalf of America’s millions of unemployed, who seem only to be useful when war threatens America’s shores? Those charming people who believe one should "hate the sin and love the sinner" were not really disposed of by the mad dog analogy. There was One such whom they tried to dispose of two, thousand years ago. They didn’t succeed even with the aid of His churches. Right and Truth have a curious habit of enduring.
