The title of this compilation refers to Coughlin's position that America should help her own suffering people rather than engaging in another European war. "Why occupy our minds with Europe's territorial boundaries and various 'isms'? Today America is faced with ten million unemployed and twenty million wards on Government relief. These thirteen discourses were delivered by Father Coughlin over a private network of radio stations which he rents at full commercial rates." - p. 5. Topics include: The President's Message to Congress; The Rightists Go Into Action; Ten Million Unemployed; Why Leave Our Own; Foreign Relations - in Three Acts; Fides Intrepida; Internationalism - Or No Foreign Entanglements; An American Christian Program; The Papacy - Pius VII and Puis XII; Bonds and Neutrality; Social and Economic Reform; Our Problem Is In America; The History of Holy Week. "Be not deceived. The enemies of the Prince of Peace are motivated by the single desire to devour our liberties, our morals, our homes, our farms, our industries and our immortal souls. Their breed has not changed one iota from their ancestors whom Christ condemned." - p.155. "Charles Edward Coughlin (1891-1979), commonly known as Father Coughlin, was the founding priest of the National Shrine of the Little Flower, Royal Oak, Michigan. He was one of the first political leaders to use radio to reach a mass audience. During the 1930s, when the U.S. population was about 120 million, an estimated 30 million listeners tuned to his weekly broadcasts. After the outbreak of World War II in 1939, the Roosevelt administration forced the cancellation of his radio program and forbade distribution by mail of his newspaper Social Justice." - Wikipedia.
