"L0LLAH GETTERS" OR
"DOLLAR GIVERS," WHICH?
Eavid Hinshaw Takes Americans to
Task for Unconcern at the
Starving: of Millions
From Thursday's Daily.
America has heen called the "Land
of the Almighty dollar," and certain
surface indications in our national
make-up have partly justified this
characterisation. The folks of the
vast country west of the Alleghenies
are scarcely more than two genera
tions removed from pioneers who
wrested life and fortune from Xa-
ttire. Many of those on the Atlantic!
seaboard are Immigrants from Eu
rope who have come to this land of
opportunity and promise to better
themselves and their children. The
struggle for advance, comfort and
means still in our blood, therefore
occasionally gives us the appearance
of "dollar getters." But the great
majority of us have fully appreciat
ed that money making Is not our
fundamental aim.
The fine spirit of equality, the
certain elimination of class lines
which exist in Europe, the gradual
removal of chronic poverty should
have characterized- us as practical
idealists. But we were judged by
appearances. Then came the Great
War. . I
We entered this war for no ma
terial gain, but that autocracy might
be forever crushed from the earth; i
that small nations might be protect
ed from large nations; that the
agreement between one nation and
another nation might be sacred and
binding. We ask nothing for our
selves; we Insist only that human
ity shall be benefitted. Now we are'
being acclaimed as the world's great
est Idealists.
Becuuse we entered the war late
and the surface of our home life and
our industry has been merely scrat
ched, it is our particular duty to see
tnis great enort tnrougn to me very
end. More than four million per-
sons are looking to American gene-
rosity for their very lives. The big
task is all but completed. One cor-.
ner alone needs to be cleaned up.
America must finish the job. Impov-
erished, stricken Europe can help but
little. "When America has cleaned
up the last corner, the Near East, as
she will certainly do, we will be
known as the land of "dollar-givers'
and not the land of "dollar getters.'
