ihirefamrh TJP 'E have dedicated this book to peace. The peace which American democracy would demonstrate to the world is the only lasting peace. It is the peace which demands the right of self-determination for all nations within their own legitimate boundaries. The American flag has always been an emblem under which our loyal legions have marched and sacrificed for the principle of human justice. We therefore consider it fitting to use it throughout the book as the most appropriate decoration possible in expressing our desire for an American peace. When an idea is universally accepted as expressing a desirable condition or manner[of living, that idea becomes a law. Nothing in the world today is more greatly desired than peace, but among too many people the idea of peace is based on their individual advantage; consequently there is a continual conflict—the strong seeking! to subjugate those who are less warlike. If we in the United States of America keep ever in the front of our minds our desire for a peace based on justice, we will help in attaining for the world the desire for an American peace. C. ? .

ZsJioi s iaft Jove J ty no yhbor as t tyso f” THIS WAY IS PEACE 0 PEACE, this book we dedicate, Hoping we may articulate Some tiny thought to help abate The cataclysmic wave of hate Which holds the world aghast. First, ’mongst things which we deplore, Comes greed—the craving to have more Of goods and place from nature’s store Than we can claim by earning’s score, ’Though other lives we blast. Along with greed comes vanity— Parade of self for all to see How great and mighty men are we, Though, in our preening, often we Discourage worthy folk. Hence, we commend the Master’s creed To offset vanity and greed, For peace on earth ‘twill swiftly speed If men but understand and heed— The creed which He, commanding, spoke.
