Topic: Security and Happiness

with contributions from State Cordell Hull, Francis Sayre, Bryce, S. W. Mitchell

[Secretary of State Cordell Hull, as quoted in the New York Times, New York]

The times are serious. The shadow of war darkens the world. It was never more important for the people to exhibit breadth of vision, restraint, judgment, and political foresight rather than passion, selfishness, emotion, and credulity.

The world needs a return to belief in the pledged word, in a reign of law rather than unlicensed force, in the supreme value of human rights and liberties. Unbridled cupidity and savage aggression are sooner or later self-defeating.
