“

[Y]ou are to my mind and my convictions one of the great cosmic and world forces for good. It is to you and yr. faith that we owe victory over forces that were evil and without you a patched peace would have come about long ago with another war against Kaiserism. Whatever other dangers face mankind today, Kaiserism, thanks to you, is dead and done with forever.
