U7HEN Secretary of State Marshall tells us "the world Is In the midst of a great crisis a crisis In flamed by propaganda, tuisuuder standing, anger and fear we should lake him at his word and act accordingly. THAT calls for another searching question: HOW SHOULD VK ACT at such a time? The answer Is simple: Wo should act as patriots. We should unhesitatingly, at all times. be ready to put the welfare of our country above the welfare of any Individual, or any set of Individuals.
