The Czechoslovak Review/Volume 1/Miscellaneous (4)
“No life is safe, no happiness is safe, there is no chance of bettering life until we have made an end to all that causes war . . .
“We have to put an end to the folly and vanity of kings, and to any people ruling any people but themselves. There is no convenience, there is no justice in any people ruling any people but themselves; the ruling of men by others who have not their creeds and their languages and their ignorances and prejudices, that is the fundamental folly that has killed Teddy and Hugh—and these millions.
“To end that folly is as much our duty and business as telling the truth and earning a living. . .”
The Sioux City Journal in telling about the share of the Middle West and its many immigrants in the sacrifices required by the war has this to say about the Czechs: “Bohemians have not been satisfied to do even the things that were expected of them as adopted children of America; they have gone farther with schemes of their own to show a spirit of sacrifice greater than that.”
