HUMANITY needs pruning
It is like a vast great tree with a great lot of
sterile, dead.
rotting wood
and an
amount of fungoid and parasitic growth.
The tree of humanity needs
pruning, badly,
it
needs thoroughly pruning, not as in the late war,
blasting
with
unintelligent and evil destruction
but pruning, severely, intelligently and
ruthlessly pruning.
The tree of human existence needs badly pruning
or the whole tree may fall
rotten.
