After Crisis Revolution

Dangers of internal upheaval may accompany the sudden removal of the emotional strain produced by a threat of war.

This is a medical view in a leading article in "The Lance" reviewing the end of the crisis.

"We had all been keyed up," rays the article, "to defending against a tyrant a country with ideals like those for which our ancestors had fought.

"But now, nearly everything the tyrant asked for had been given to him and a pact of friendship with him had been signcil.

"Were we mad before, or are we guilty now?

"No nount of relief frio external danger can do with this new source of pain. We now tace a new away crisis-an Internal one-that of not knowing whom we trust or whom we hate.

"When war is averted, after hatred and fear have been aroused, the impulse to destruction tends to turn back on the self.

"In communities this leads to despair and promotes revolution, and ln countries where violent emotions have been induced but not translated into setlon, great vigi- lance may be needed to prevent the anger of disillusion- ment from producing an internal upheaval."
