My view is that patriotism towards the country of one's birth or adoption becomes one's bounden duty, otherwise one should get out and go ́elsewhere. Patriotism la a family business and I hate folks who won't fight for the family welfare."
Ho declared his religion to be that of the healthy primitive man. "The world is changing very rapidly and it is no good hanging back and being old fashioned," he said. "We want leaders, wa want them badly and I acmetimos fear that the Old Gang are sup- pressing our would-be leaders be cause of their modernity and be- cause the Old Gang won't see that mass education must make for a constant change."
