v By Richard Clark
General William T. Sherman gave the South a taste of total
war in 1864, in his famous or infamous march to the sea, de-
vastating property to the tragic height of $100,000,000. Sher-
man said it more simply: "War is hell."
That war taught America the meaning of total war, against
civilians as well as soldiers, against young as well as old, and
against poor as well as rich. Gen. Sherman put it more concise-
ly: "I attach more importance to these deep incisions into the
enemy's country, because this war differs from European wars
in this particular: we are not only fighting armies, but a hostile
people, and must make old and young, rich and poor, feel the
hard hand of war, as well as their organized arimes."
I would borrow from Gen. Sherman to say this: "War is (the
beginning of) hell." To accept the validity of his concept of
war is not to like it. War in brutal reality is horrible and damn-
able. The wanton destruction of human lives is sad beyond our
grasp to comprehend; the cruel maiming of innocent people is
ghastly; the rape of another nation's freedom is unforgivable.
The morality or immorality of war.becomes vague when both
sides pray to the same God for victory. But there arises a time
when it is more immoral not to fight than to fight. The per-
ception of that time separates the statesmen from the politicians.

During the pledge period the
