Abstract :
WE are living today in some of the most critical times in the world´s history. Throughout a large portion of the world men and machines are engaged in titanic struggles that may, and undoubtedly will, affect the future of Western civilization as we know it, for a century, perhaps for centuries. We, ourselves, in this country have, against our will, been drawn into this world reaching cataclysm. We are now dedicating a large part of our energies and resources and even our lives to the task of assuring that the democratic idea and way of life will emerge victorious over its counterpart and deadly enemy — the totalitarian idea. We are at war.
