Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Elevator Constructor, Vol. 15: January, 1918 Our Republic, our people, are at war. Whatever individuals may have thought. Upon the European situation before the Congress of the United States declared war' against the im perial German and Austrian Govern ments, that must now be laid aside. The Congress and the President, under the authority of the Constitution of our Republic, have irrevocably de cided the matter. War means victory for our cause or danger to the very existence of our nation. With our nation at stake, individuals can not interpose opposition to the war - a war declared by the will of the nation's representatives. Under the exigencies of war, Opposi tion to the war declared by constituted authority becomes treason. It is a time that requires serious consideration of words and actions.
