Excerpt from The War and World Opinion Least of all is the war a gigantic riot, as it has been called by William J. Bryan, who rivals Henry Ford among a certain class of peace advocates in his inability to realize the deeper world issues of the con flict and to appreciate the true nature of the moral dutywhich it imposes upon the great American republic, the duty to stand firmly at the head of the neutral world, at whatever cost, for those principles of liberty, justice, humanity and progress endangered by the war. For in its larger, worldwide meaning, the war is simply an attack, in the interest of Prussian dynastic ambitions, upon those principles of liberty, justice, humanity and progress which lie at the very foundations of Christian civilization. If there be excuse for another pamphlet on this war, it lies not in any authority attaching to the name of the writer, but only in his desire to keep vigorously alive for future use that intense interest and Splendid moral feeling which burst forth so spontaneously at the outbreak of the war, for the perishing of this would be the one thing capable of turning the struggle into an unmitigated calamity, no matter which side should emerge with external success.
