Page 113 - Jehovah is my God. He kindled these fires. I fear not Pele. If I perish by the anger of Pele, then you may fear the power of Pele ; but if I trust in Jehovah, and he shall save me from the wrath of Pele when I break through her tabus, then you must fear and serve the Lord Jehovah. All the gods of Hawaii are vain.
Page 103 - The subjection of the people to the chiefs, from former ages down, is a subject well understood, as is also a portion of the ancient laws. That subjection and those laws are not discontinued...
Page 145 - The journalist who undertakes this high mission will be the daysman who stands between the extremes of society. He will be the keeper of the conscience of King Demos and woe be unto him if he neglect his primary duty to the weak, the friendless, and those who have no helper.

Page 73 - ... Pan-Pacific Union. Dr. Bunker says: "I cabled you Saturday to the effect that the invitations had been signed by the Secretary of State and had gone forward, also that I would send you a copy of the same. "The copy I am enclosing. You will observe from its heading that the invitation has been extended to Guatemala, Salvador, Nicaragua, Honduras, Costa Rica, Panama, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, Bolivia, Chile, Japan, China and Siam, through the diplomatic officers of the United States accredited to...
Page 141 - Propaganda aims primarily at shutting up the mind against other conclusions than tho'se which the propagandist designs to implant. Education, on the contrary, aims to open the mind, to prepare it, to make it receptive, and to urge it to formulate its own conclusions. Propaganda would at last mean intellectual paralysis; education is, when properly employed, intellectual stimulus. It is better that men should think than that they should accept conclusions formulated by other men for them. We have...
Page 146 - ... which journalists themselves often give to their own personal and professional associates the best example. A league of journalists — keeping open and free the avenues of world communication, and speaking just and fair — may do even more to preserve sacred institutions of society, to promote and maintain world peace, to give large life to all, than even the most skillfully balanced league or association of nations.
Page 145 - The new world journalism is the outcome of a new world spirit. It is the outward and visible sign of an effort at selfexpression. This new world spirit is a struggle among the peoples for different relations to the external, a conviction that they should have more to say concerning their own fortunes. Its manifestations are various. Its attitude is critical everywhere and sometimes openly contemptuous. In some lands it seeks reform, in some it inspires revolt. So journalism is freakish in some places...
Page 146 - Without the press' aid, whatever the wise men at Washington may determine, there is no peace ; disarmament is an iridescent dream. Increase the avenues of communication between nations and free news sources from the poison of interested propaganda and we thereby help to make a sick world well. Permit these avenues to be clogged, congested and corrupted and the fever of war returns apace. Open the door...
Page 146 - The new journalism will have the public for its client and will accept fee from no lesser source. Its high purpose will be the public welfare, not alone locally or nationally, but the world's welfare. It will recognize that welfare is brought about not by commercial domination or by force of arms, not by the tyranny of a proletariat or an oligarchy, of the educated few or the ignorant many, but by that powerful comradeship of all — that genuine neighborliness — of which journalists themselves...
