Those weapons will but lead us to a war that will destroy civilization. And it is not enough for us to boast of the achievements of our Washingtons. Lees. Houstons. and other empire builders if group prejudices and assumed superiorities close our eyes to domestic problems that lie close at hand. There are two domestic problems requiring our present consideration. One is the problem of unemployment. We should restrict the entry of foreigners. because our first duty is to our own unemployed. The second problem is the preservation of our democracy. Criminal aliens and aliens who seek to overthrow our form of government should be deported.
