A TIME FOR PATRIOTISM 1
The present condition of world af- j
fairs, with a serious threat to the j
future peace of the United Statea, ]
demands that the citiiens of this
country give a demonstration of the ,
loyalty that we read about in the ,
history books. j
The United Statea is able to take i
care of itself whenever its people <
cooperate in the service of their na- j
tion. It is not able to defend itself ?;
when our people divide upon incon
sequential issues or attempt to play .
politics.
At present, loyal citizens will lend t
their support to the President in his 3
undertakings in behalf of national (
defense. Whether an American likes ^
the administration or not is not the ^
issue; the issue is whether one likes i
America, or not.
Later, inthis year, the people will 1
have an opportunity to select a chief ;
executive for the four years, com- ?
mencing in January. Regardless of
which party wins the presidential
election the obligation upon good
citizens will continue the same, so .
far as national defense ? concerned.
In writing this editorial we are not
aware of any failure on the part of
people in Pitt County to yield full
loyalty to their government at this
time but, nevertheless, there should
be no misunderstanding about the
duty of those who profess patriotic
impulses.
Any traitor in any country offers
complete loyalty to his crowd. It is
only the loyal patriot who cooperates
whole-heartedly with his political op
ponents when necessary for the na
tional defense. When the hour de
mands the service of patriots, the
real patriots does not reply with a
counter-proposition.
