To you fhese circumsfances are wifhouf parallel in your lives. You leave high school fo confinue your educafion or fo earn your living in a world forn wifh suicidal sfrife, in a counfry keenly aware of fhe fhreaf fo ifs form of life and vigorously preparing 'ro secure ifs liberfies. You have never known fhe sifuafion fhaf faces you now and which you nor l nor any ofher American can escape if he would. J. R. MQKILLOP No word l can give you is more appropriafe fhan DlSl'ld5Upe'lnlemle l a simple reminder of fwo presenf and pressing ne- cessifies. The firsf of fhese needs is for confidence. Wifhouf if we are weak, and weakness fhese days is swiffly and savagely defeafed. If is forfunafe indeed fhaf we are iusfified in confidence. Scrufinizing fhe lessons of hisfory, we are impressed by fhe imperman- ence of dicfaforships and dicfafor governmenfs. Successful dicfafors are monsfrosifies among mankind, are nof succeeded by fheir equals in capaloilify, and build so many anfagonisms fo fhemselves and fheir kingdoms fhaf fhey bring on a sfronger swing fo liberalism. Wi+h every conquesf of fhe presenf dicfafor, he sefs up a new area of violenf hafe, an acfive, undying, deadly hafe fhaf finally becomes a morfal weakness. Won- derful as fhe presenf dicfafor's power is, if is proporfionafely less fhan fhaf of ofher dicfafors and is under consfanf fhreaf by greaf resources nof now in acfive opposifion. To prevail, if rnusf finally overcome The unsurpassed powers of fhe peoples who exalf and pracfice personal liberfies. Confidence is iusfified buf musf nof be blind. The second necessify, fherefore, is fhaf of expressing our confidence, af once and for years fo come, in a susfained, singlehearf- ed, sacrificial consecrafion of fhe energy of every one of us fo fhe sacred cause of pres serving fhe cherished righfs of man. The cause is righf and we musf make if prevail. Your Friend, J. R. MCKILLOP.
