28 Eugenical News signed to serve these purposes by thoroughly preparing the youth of the nation for them, are the Youth Movement and the Labor Service. For example all of the youth of the nation, high and low and without exception, must serve six months in a Labor Camp, in which, among other things, they must learn to do manual labor in order to gain the personal experience and knowledge of just what manual labor is. In these camps youth of all social classes serve together in good fellowship in order to become fully sensible of the obligations of the different social classes to one another, of their mutual dependence upon one another, and of their common interest in the racial future. Thus individuals learn the important truth in early life by actual contacts and experience that there are other and better ways of the people of a nation living together than by class struggle and class conflict. Well directed efforts are made to educate the entire nation in all of these vital racial and social subjects by elementary instruction in schools, by many books on different phases of the subject, by bulletins and brochures, and by admirable museum exhibits, in all of which there is universal interest. And practically the whole of the German nation is thoroughly well informed on highly important subjects which in other countries are grossly misunderstood and willfully misrepresented. This policy gains the enthusiastic support and cooperation of practically the entire German nation, of which it may be said that its greatest desire is to make the racial quality of the next generation an improvement upon that of the present one. It is at once obvious that such a policy requires the full observance of moral obligations and duties, and that it requires a certain sacrifice of what are regarded by some as inalienable individual rights and of individualistic aims, when they conflict with the racial interest. And it further requires the willingness to submit to these ends.

Indeed the feeling among the German people that they are serving the best future interest of their progeny and of their nation gives them a zest in life and a stimulus to endeavor which enables them to live their lives happily and cheerfully and with a courageous and confident outlook upon the future. Other nations who boast that they seek the maximum freedom and liberty of the individual as the first desideratum in national life incline to condemn such an attitude as a too abject docility in individuals. They might with profit, however, bring a little rationalization to bear upon their cherished principles of liberty. Most rational individuals in such nations recognize that there are obligations in the common interest which impose justifiable limitations upon personal liberty, to which they willingly submit without any sense of deprivation. The Germans as a nation recognize that these obligations in the common interest go somewhat further, and they are quite happy and content to observe such further obligations in the feeling that their personal liberties are not unduly curtailed. The future will incontestably prove which nations have been the wiser. It might be asked how this earnest desire of the German nation to improve in [end]
