These comparative few not only risk their own necks thereby, but endanger the lives and liberties of the many, many patriotic citizens. It is true th at we are not yet actually engaged in an all out war, but since the shooting started in Korea, there have been some American business men who al ready have given evidence they are thinking only of profits and not of service to America. Their selfish ness, their lack of patriotism jeopardizes the “Ameri can Way” under which they do business. And also, unfortunately, there are some American wage-earners who, despite the grave emergency, are still obsessed with the unsound idea of extracting the utmost farthing in wages for the least possible work done. Then there are some American politicians who, in these troublous times, are still playing to the gallery, giving more thought to how many votes they can gar ner next November than to the country’s welfare. When the situation calls for statesmanship, they resort to petty politics. If the ‘bad” boys among the business fraternity wake up some unhappy morning to find a foreign in vader in possession of their businesses, they will have only themselves to blame. If the greedy-wage earners answer their alarm clocks some forlorn morning to find themselves no longr free to work when, where, and how they choose, but forced to toil long hours at starvation wages un der the lash of a foreign dictator, who but themselves will they be able to censure for that loss of liberty ? These minorities among the businessmen, wage earners and politicians apparently are beyond redemp tion. Appeals to their patriotism, humanitarianism and altruism fall on deaf ears. Perhaps they can be reached by appeals to their greed and selfishness, with which human frailties they seem to be so richly endowed. Surely, their selfishness, all decent motives failing, should dictate to them that this is a time for all-out sacrifices, all-out expenditure of capital, labor and statesm anship on behalf of America. If they fail to rec ognize this self-evident truth they take the risk of sell ing themselves down the river, while they drag patriot ic citizens with them.
