In The Fourth Year - In the latter half of 1914 a some of us were writing that this conflict was a "War of Ideas." A idiom, "The War to bound War, " got into circulation, amidst much sceptical comment. It was a idiom mighty adequacy to sway many men, essentially pacifists, towards taking an vigorous part in the conflict against German imperialism, but it was a idiom whose chief content was its aspiration. People were already writing in those early days of disarmament and of the abolition of the armament commerce throughout the world; they realized fully the ingredient of industrial belligerency behind the shining armour of imperialism, and they denounced the "Krupp-Kaiser" alliance. But against such writing and such reflecting we had to calculate, in those days, immense and mighty realities. Even to those who expressed these ideas there lay visibly upon them the shadow of impracticability; they were truly "advanced" ideas in 1914, truly Utopian. Against them was an unbroken mass of mental habit and public tradition. While we talked of this "conflict to bound conflict, " the diplomatists of the Powers allied against Germany were busily spinning a disastrous web of greedy secret treaties, were answering aggression by schemes of aggression, were seeing in the treacherous power of Germany only the justification representing countervailing wrong acts. To them it was only another conflict representing "ascendancy."
