Excerpt from China, Captive or Free: A Study of China's Entanglements "Now it can be told" - not because the facts have not been known or because any censor has forbidden their publication, but because the temper of the reading public has not yet escaped the bias of war and resumed the calmness, poise, fairness and broad-mindedness of days before the war. America by entering the war and through glory of achievement has not suffered militarily, but morally. Not until one reaches the lofty idealism of "being just to those to whom we wish to be just, and just to those to I whom we do not wish to be just," will he read with patience such a book as this. The author primarily is an advocate of justice the world over, but, to be intelligently just, there comes the task of accommodating thinking to the process of discrimination. In times of war, and under the behests of war, conscience; must be set to sleep, and loyalty must shape itself by cur. rent opinion, loftily proclaimed, that one's own nation and all her associates are of necessity immaculate, and the opposing group without any virtue which Heaven or man may recognize. When peace dawns, and reconstruction is undertaken-undertaken on the basis of real re-conciliation - then policies and systems, customs and governments must be discriminated from peoples and the individual, and even in the individual one must learn to see both good and evil.
