The working-man had found it necessary to give up his own class privi- leges, when these interfered with the fighting efficiency of the nation, and to accept the greater privileges of equality and common responsibility that had arisen from a com- mon danger. In America the pressure... of the war had not been strong enough to force such facts upon us.

The United States faced no such desperate crisis. We had time to move slowly, without strain. Such strength as we had we put into play craftily. We had only just begun to dis- cover our weaknesses when the war closed. And up to that time we had been able to 43 THE DOUGHBOY'S RELIGION conceal those sore spots from ourselves by refusing to notice them, by denying that they existed, and by chloroforming into si- lence all the protests that were the symp- tomatic aches and twinges of our constitu- tional weaknesses.
