The secretary clearly s u g g e s t s w h a t should be our fnreign policy in view of the grave European conditions: namely, to "quarantine" the aggressor n a - tions, not by means of armed peaceful methods which would hold in check the "power" expressed in these lines--Let him hold who has the power and let him take who can. These lines strike terror in the heart of every lover of democracy. It seems strange that so many of us have long held the opinion that the only alternatives were complete isolation or war. The statement, "We are a Christian nation; let Europe take care of herself," or the frequent remark, "It's none of our business," seem too absurd for reference, if it were not for the responsible sources of leadership from which such ideas originate. There is a basic reason for our concern in what goes on across the seas. In the complexity of our international affairs today, no nation can exist alone. It is not only cowardly but self-destructive for us to maintain an attitude of dire isolation and refuse to enter into an international conference which honestly seeks to preserve the spirit of democracy. As no physical life can be maintained in a vacuum, so a nation in isolation wUl perish. This is the testimony of history. On the other hand, to quarantine the aggressor nation does not mean a call to. arms. It is but natural that we endeavor to be free from mere military force. But, is there not a mid-position between isolation and arms which a Christian nation can take? This is a question which requires the clear thinking of every citizen. What" methods which will not result in self-destruction or war can we use to preserve democracy? Perhaps the principle of. the boycott successfully used in former international^ disagreements is the most potent thus far suggested. This method is the alternative of violence. Public opinion should be aroused to the point of earnest expression that demands all possible peaceful protests to check the onrush of the power of dictatorship. Dictatorship is the deadly foe of; democracy. This is a time for serious exchange of information, as that information comes from individual minds influenced by the atti tude of international co-operation for peace. Such honest exchange o: ideas will in no way limit the action, of a nation, but will clarify and magnify the minds of every aler citizen. The only ideas worthy of respect are those born in the hour of courage that seeks the common good. C Western Newspaper Union How to Tell Mule's Age One way to tell a mule's age it by his teeth.
