Excerpt from Over the Top During sixteen years of 'roughing it, knocking around the world, I have rubbed against the high and low and have had ample opportunity of study ing, at close range, many different peoples, their ideals, political and otherwise, their hopes and principles. Through this elbow rubbing, and not from reading, I have become convinced of the nobility, truth, and justice of the Allies' cause, and know their fight to be our fight, because it espouses the principles of the United States of America, democracy, justice, and liberty.
