Such accumulation of the materials of the Earth led to greed, misrepresentation, thievery and to get possession of what others produced. But the trickiest creatures eventually got control of the Earth’s materials and enslaved the peoples of different countries through despotic dictatorship. The dictators of the different states then went to war with each other in order to get control of greater quantities of the Earth’s materials until finally the whole Eastern Hemisphere turned into nations of murderous barbarians who periodically fought each other for possession of the loot. There were, however, intelligent men from the Eastern Hemisphere who wanted to enjoy the freedom of government that would allow them a voice in the management of their own affairs and they emigrated to the Western Hemisphere and set up the American Form of Government in which the freedom of speech, freedom of assembly, freedom of press, freedom of religion and race friendship prevailed.

Furthermore, when the barbarians finally attacked the Americans they had the advantage of many years of war preparation and practical experience and by striking without warning they killed and maimed thousands of splendid Americans that could have been saved had not the peace-mongers kept the United States of America unprepared for just such a catastrophe. Now, a state of war exists between the barbarians, who want to enslave mankind and control the materials of the Earth as Dictators, and the democratic peoples of the world who want a voice in the management of themselves, such as is now afforded by the |
