Show Have You Heard the News from Moscow The following is from Walter Lippmann, best of the columnists: col-umnists: The truth of the matter is that the effort to bind together the great powers for the peace of the whole world is the most ambitious undertaking in the history of man. It is an ancient dream of the saints and the sages. But never before has it been made the urgent business of states which embrace the world. " . We cannot wait any longer to found the institutions of peace which virtually all responsible men and women now profess to favor. That is'the reason why we have gone to Moscow, and why we must go from there wherever else it may be necessary to go, resolved and tireless to achieve the great purpose. : This is our duty. This is the honoring of the pledge which every civilian has given to all who fight and toil and suffer. It is the pledge that we shall not stupidly, negligently, selfishly squander the blood, the sweat and the tears with which the age we live in is now sanctified. |
