I'm not trying to pose as an expert >>n the moulding of.public opinion. I’m not talking big about what I'd do if it was my job to whip up the country on the war effort. I’m talking as an average citizen. I’m saying, not what I’d like to tell them, but what I’d like to be told. Soon. Because I’m concerned, and I’ve been concerned, about my reaction to all that’s been happening. Siwe, I'm buying bonds. I’m payihg taxes. I’m doing with less sugar. But deep down inside, down where it really matters, some­ thing hasn't taken place yet that I feel ought to take place. I’m all a w^ter of confusion there. Il keeps me scratching my head and mopping my brow when I know I ought to be clinching my fists. You understand? It’s like this: I want to be told—not to buy Defense Stamps or Defense Bonds. I want to be told to buy Victory Stamps or War Bonds. I want to be told — not about the construction of( houses in Defense Areas. I want to be told about the construction houses in Wai- Production Areas. I want to be told—not to remember Pearl Harbor. I want be told to take Tokio, to bomb Berlin, to razo Rome. J want to be told—not to do my part to keep Naziism Fascism from these shores. I want to bo told to do my part spread Americanism to all shores. I want to be told—not to help keep our world and our way of life from being lost. I want to be told to help build a new world and a better way of life. I want a positive program instead of a passive one. I want something to fight for—I'm sick and tired of having only some­ thing to fight against. I’m hungry for something to get pepped up about — I’m repelled from having only something to fear. I waht something to do—not just to wait for. It hasn’t been so long since the last war that I forgot what happened then. I re­ member the parades and the speeches and 4he ringing slogans. Then we fought to make the world aaftffor democracy. We bought Liberty Bonds. We sang that the Yswiks were coming. We set out to avenge Belgium—not juet to remember it. We made a vow that we’d reach Berlin or -bust. We toyed with plans to hang the Kaiser. We warned the Him to “keep your head down, Fritzieboy!” We girded ourselves lor a Crusade—we didn’t close the doors for a siege. •£> i T We hated the Kaiser—we didn't laurh'.at him. We printed his loathesome physiognomy on toilet pnprtr—to make the most ignominius use of it. We likened his uptorne<|| handle-bars to the devil'« horns—not to anything so hasmlass and pathetic as the famous hirsute prop Charlie Chaplin rilhsters on his uppei- lip. We saw nothing to be amused about in his vain and pompous posturings—as we do today in Musso)ini’s/'puffy strutting We didn't pin our hopes on the defective eyeSigtit of the enemy. We planted war gardens. We poured money into war chests. We had gasless undays and yelled "Slacker!” at anyone who dared to venture out in his Winton or Hupmobile or Stems Knight. We churned one pound of butter into two pounds and did it with a« much will as if-we were turning out ammunition. We took the offensive psychologically long before we took it physically. And if we hadn’t takm it psychologically, we'd never have developed the drive to take it physically. And don't tell me we cant do the «ame now. I want to 13ng that today we control our own deatiny, to- morrow the destiny of the whole world. I want to sail airain.t Germany, against Italy, against Japan. If they can ■ail »gainst us and our allies, why can't we sail against them? I want to construct a greater America co-prosperity sphere I want to correct the mistakes of the Vf be ing made to feel sad. I want the experience - the purging, mar1-baling, driving experience—of be­ ing made to feel mad. Fighting mad!
