The war has brought all of us together under one banner. We had a common ideal. We were eager to sacrifice for one common purpose. What will be our ideal now that the war has ended? Will we work together for the common good, or will there be a breaking up of a great national purpose into a number of conflicting, smaller, and more selfish purposes?

The news from Europe causes us to rejoice. But at the same time it makes us thoughtful. We feel the seriousness of the coming months. We know that the good of the nation will demand even greater moral and mental strength than was demanded by the war. To keep the world safe, to substitute better ideals for those that are outworn, to protect the weak, to direct the powerful, to build social machinery that will serve all classes and all nations without injustices--here are some of the tasks confronting us.
