Editorial on war policy and boycott prospects in 1930s
The piece analyzes President Roosevelt's Chicago speech on neutrality and potential shifts away from isolationism, weighing a British led economic boycott of Japanese goods to deter aggression in China. It argues neutrality is inadequate, isolationism cannot prevent war, and a universal boycott could curb war while noting objections from those who see Japan as have-not. It also shifts to October work and social life, praising work, sports, and community activity as antidotes to conflict both at home and abroad.
