A MESSAGE 1 PROM THE Religious Society of Friends Jj I ' (Quakers) in America To Our Fellow Citizens: j In this time of crisis when our country's highest good is the common aim of all, we voice this deep conviction of patriotic duty. ' j We rejoice that eYeu at this time, when the world is crazed by war, Jj II so many men are judging war by moi'al and spiritual standards, and by II ideals of sacrifice. The causes for which men fight liberty, justice and l peace are noble and Christian causes. Rut the method of war is unchristian unchris-tian and immoral. War itself violates law, justice, liberty and peace, the very ends for which alone its tragic cost might be justified. Further, the method of war is ineffective to these ends. Might does not decide the right, ideals cannot be maintained by force, nor can evil ovuv- come evil. True national honor is a nation's own integrity and snselfish ' service. Only unswerving honesty and self-control maintain it. Rights, the rights of all, are securely defended between nations as between individuals, by mutual confidence, not suspicion; by universal co-operation and law, not I! by private armed defense. I The alternative to war is not inactivity and cowardice. It is the irresistible irre-sistible and constructive power of good-will. True patriotism at this time calls not for a resort to the futile methods of war, but for the invention and practice on a gigantic scale of new methods of conciliation and altruistic ser- A vice. The present intolerable situatiou among nations demands an unpreco- dented expression of organized national good-will. Unpractical though such ideals may seem, cxpei-ieuce has taught that ideals can be realized if we have faith to practice now what all men hope for In in the future. The American Nation, as a more perfect union of slates, as a melting pot of races, as a repeated victor through peace, has proved practical ! I the methods of generosity and patience. Throughout, many years of an ad- .! venturous belief in the Christian pi-inciple of human brotherhood, the Society j of Friends has seen the, triumph of good-will in all forms of human crises. jj- HI The people of every land are longing for the time when love shall con- quer hate, when co-operation shall replace conflict, when war shall be no III more. This time will come only when the people of some great nation dare j I to abandon the outworn traditions of international dealing and to stake all III upon persistent good-will. jl lij We are the nation and now is the time. .This is America's supreme j opportunity. Unflinching good-will, no less than war, demands courage, patriotism j am3 self-sacrifice. To such a victory over itself, to such a leadership of the world, lo such an embodiment of the matchless, invincible power of goodwill, good-will, this otherwise tragic hour challenges our country.
