In
the
time
now
ahead
of
us
a
great
many
of
these
prejudices
we
have
been
given
will
have
to
go
,
or
be
radically
altered
.
We
can
accept
and
retain
only
one
primary
prejudice
,
and
that
is
that
the
race
is
worth
preserving
.
To
that
consideration
all
else
will
,
for
a
time
at
least
,
be
subordinate
.
We
must
look
at
all
we
do
,
with
this
question
in
mind
:
‘
Is
this
going
to
help
our
race
survive
—
or
will
it
hinder
us
?
’
If
it
will
help
,
we
must
do
it
,
whether
or
not
it
conflicts
with
the
ideas
in
which
we
were
brought
up
.
If
not
,
we
must
avoid
it
,
even
though
the
omission
may
clash
with
our
previous
notions
of
duty
and
even
of
justice
.
"
It
will
not
be
easy
;
old
prejudices
die
hard
.
The
simple
rely
on
a
bolstering
mass
of
maxim
and
precept
;
so
do
the
timid
;
so
do
the
mentally
lazy
—
and
so
do
all
of
us
,
more
than
we
imagine
.
Now
that
the
organization
has
gone
,
our
ready
reckoners
for
conduct
within
it
no
longer
Live
the
right
answers
.
We
must
have
the
moral
courage
to
think
and
to
plan
for
ourselves
.
"
He
paused
to
survey
his
audience
thoughtfully
.
Then
he
said
:
"
There
is
one
thing
to
be
made
quite
clear
to
you
before
you
decide
to
join
our
community
.
It
is
that
those
of
us
who
start
on
this
task
will
all
have
our
parts
to
play
.
The
men
must
work
—
the
women
must
have
babies
.
Unless
you
can
agree
to
that
,
there
can
be
no
place
for
you
in
our
community
.
"
After
an
interval
of
dead
silence
,
he
added
:
"
We
can
afford
to
support
a
limited
number
of
women
who
cannot
see
,
because
they
will
have
babies
who
can
see
.
We
cannot
afford
to
support
men
who
cannot
see
.
In
our
new
world
,
then
,
babies
become
very
much
more
important
than
husbands
.
"
For
some
seconds
after
he
stopped
speaking
,
silence
continued
,
then
isolated
murmurs
grew
quickly
into
a
general
buzz
.
I
looked
at
Josella
.
To
my
astonishment
,
she
was
grinning
impishly
.
"
What
do
you
find
funny
about
this
?
"
I
asked
a
trifle
shortly
.
