A Substitute for War
Boards 16° $.50
"My object in this essay is to suggest that the 'moral equivalent
of war' can be made fascinating and effectual by utilizing
the dynamic arts of the theatre to give it symbolical expression."
Civic pageantry is capable of redirecting waste energies
which now go towards the drama by war. It satisfies man's
needs for color and rhythm, for sacrifice and consecration, for
companionship and communal effort. The author writes as
one who has succeeded in creative work along the lines of his
theories.
