Brief von Joseph Lash an Paul Tillich vom 18. Februar 1942

February 18, 1942

Dear Professor Tillich,

Several weeks ago Trude gave me a copy of your pamphlet {on} „War Aims“ which only tonight have I had a chance to read. I want to {hasten} to express my profound agreement with its views.

Unless we stand up now and are {counted} for the New Deal, the war will in a true sense be lost, for we will be {reverting} to or perpetuating conditions that make inevitable the future growth of reaction, militarism and nationalism. Unless we appeal now to the underground liberation movements in Europe and utilize the anti-fascist-{emigre} groups, our hopes of European federation will be defeated. But there is no need to harangue you on this subject!

How to make such a view politically effective – that is the question. Your pamphlet is, I feel, a real contribution.

Sincerely

Jospeh Lash
