Russell acknowledged that a nuclear strike on the Soviets would be horrible, but "anything is better than submission." Winston Churchill agreed, proposing that the Soviets be given an ultimatum: withdraw your troops from Germany, or see your cities destroyed. Even Hamilton Holt, lover of peace, crusader for world government, lifelong advocate of settling disputes through mediation and diplomacy and mutual understanding, no longer believed that sort of approach would work.

And love I laugh to scorn,
And lust of fame was but a dream

And give me liberty!'

'Tis all that I implore -
In life and death, a chainless soul,
With courage to endure. — Emily Bronte

Then bicycles were chainless,
Carriages were horseless,
And many laws enforceless.
Next cookery was fireless,
Telegraphy was wireless,
Cigars were nicotineless,
And coffee caffeineless.
Soon oranges were seedless,
The putting green was weedless,
The college boy was hatless,
The proper diet fatless.

The latest steel is rustless,
Our tennis courts are sodless,
Our new religion
godless. — Arthur Guiterman
