fined within national limits. Here are noble ideas applicable to every country equally, and to everybody.
Do not let me be accused of political bias. Politics are not my world. I would like to state that it has always seemed to me that the best party politics you could devise would mean always that some people were on top and some oppressed. Politics are hardly the solution to the world's problems. Sociology, yes. And that is why the Russian films touch me so deeply, and command my unquestioning homage. They are not — as the International Press Conspiracy would have us believe — rabid incitement to rise up and massacre, but on the other hand, the most eloquent pleading for beauty and understanding that man has made. It would not take an intellectual to see this. You would see it. I see it. Any king would see it. What are people then afraid of? It can only be that something would be shown up. We would be made to see how little beauty and understanding have been allowed in our lives. Too many people still prefer blind bias. They have founded their values upon it, and been forced to make their protection out of it. Finally we trace back the prejudice and fear not to any reason connected with social overthrow or revolution but to the danger of losing those valuations which have given spiritual nurture and protection.
To admit too much understanding, or too much compassion might mean that somebody else would get ahead, somebody else crush one out of existence. For one would not then have the ruthlessness or justification of so-called virtue by which one now^ must crush out others to survive. It is, in short, a deeply-rooted instinctual process of self-preservation.
