THE CHANGING PUBLIC ATTITUDE
The best informed news commentators appear to agree that
then» i-s a strong possibility that America may participate in the
present European war just as we did in 1918. In 1918 we went
to war to save democracy and this time we are going to save
Britain so that démocratie nations can survive, so it all boils
down to the same thing for us to see history repeat itself in the
course of twenty-five years.
News from Washington is to the effect that material aid
fo r England won’t be enough to save her: thut the only way
this can be done is by active participation and that active par
ticipation can’t be successful until we are better prepared and
the morale of the American public is prepared to accept a part
in the program. I p to recently there has been strong opposition
toward taking part in another war. hut this attitude is gradual
ly being softened. So there isn’t much the average American can
do about the situation hut do his part when the time comes, hut
probably with less enthusiasm than twenty-five years ago.
A fte r one has gone through one war the glamor is sorter
