he was writing and printing: the DEMOCRATS want the WAR. The<br />

democ will finally get it.<br />

I came back to America the spring after that date to say that there was a<br />

force INSIDE the United States that was not only trying to bust up the<br />

Monroe Doctrine, not only trying to betray our tradition of keeping out<br />

of the European mess, but trying to start a war IN ORDER to get<br />

America into it. Ferdinand, the Céline, not the Bull, yaas, you said a<br />

mouthful. And France did not hear you.<br />

I am no prophet of doom. The democracies WANTED the war. That is,<br />

the satraps were hell bent on startin’ it, and their slaves GOT it. Right on<br />

the old cervix, right on the cervical column, when the hen got it.<br />

One by one; Czechoslovakia, born says M. Céline in Paris. M. Céline is<br />

quite good on Benes [?].Why laugh, you got Litvinov in Washington,<br />

and Maisky is over in London. Why think you have anything on the<br />

sometimes from a peculiar sort of stoppage INSIDE the head, leadin’ to<br />

a kind of sense of frustration?<br />

For 60 years mankind has been experimentin’ on guinea pigs. All sorts<br />

of experiments. Seems fairly clear that you fix a breed by LIMITING the<br />

amount of alien infiltration. You make a race by homogeneity and by<br />

avoiding INbreeding. The wisdom of China long ago ruled out<br />

inbreedin’. The hundred names, no man to marry a woman of his own<br />

name, that was a barrier on the one side.<br />

Céline has got down to the other. The next move, the next world<br />

movement is a move toward the production of thoroughbreds. Think it<br />

over. That idea is a risin’. Means no hardship to anyone. It is eugenic.<br />

No argument has ever been sprouted against it. You like it in dogs and
