Excerpt from Straight America: A Call to National Service We sit supinely under insult, injury, and violation of rights and laws, express ing such resentment and reaction as we have by sending relief funds and relief ships abroad, by making loans and muni tions, by newspaper editorials, and by public speeches. We give vent to our feelings in a campaign for preparedness that urges Congress to pass a few feeble, disconnected defense bills, that organizes numerous defense organizations that are frantically busy collecting members and fees and holding meetings. We urge taking what we can get rather than insisting upon what we need. The re sult is, a large part of our energy goes into talk, which is not helping us greatly to really focus as a nation in this great crisis in the world's history.
