Hayes, a poetic meditation on the gifts brought by the kings and the spiritual value of divine grace. It then compiles “Notes and Comments,” addressing infantile leadership and the pervasive malice of prejudice, arguing that moral and intellectual maturity are essential for true world leadership. The discussion warns how racial, religious, and cultural prejudice undermines democratic cooperation and fuels destructive ignorance, even in contemporary diplomatic controversies involving Spain and

to HimTheir gifts of gold.  \nThe low place of His birth grows sweetWith Heaven's redolence:  \nHow useless,then,for kings to bringTheir frankincense.  \nThe balm of immortalityShall fill His sepulchre:In vain do kings present to HimEmbalming myrrh.  \nThough gratefully He views their gifts,They are but paltry things,——His graciousness in taking themEnriches kings.  \n# NOTES AND COMMENTS\n\nINFANTILE LEADERSHIP  \nPERVASIVE MALICE OF PREJUDICE  \nWorld Wars I and II have thrustupon the United States of Americathe grave responsibility of worldleadership—a leadership which en-tails something more than mere eco-nomic superiority and military su-premacy.While economic stabilityand military preparedness are neces-sary for effective leadership,never-theless,they do not constitute the onlynor the most essential means to beused by America in her crucial taskof bringing order out of the existingworld chaos.For truly human leader-ship,America must strive for matur-ity in her moral and intellectualcapacities.The peoples of the worlddo need dollars and bombs to wardoff starvation and aggression,and astheir leaders,America must labor tosatisfy these needs and yet,the mosturgent needs of the world are moraland intellectual.These demands alsomust be met by America as one of themost serious obligations of her lead-ership.  \nPrejudice based on race,religion,or culture is unfitting to the rationalnature of man;it is especially op-posed to the establishment and main-tenance of those essential relationswhich man has with God and withother men.It is irrational because itpermits the emotional poison ofhatred to pervert and destroy the in-tellect's capacity for straight andobjective thinking.Bedeviled by prej-udice a man is incapable of lovinglyperceiving God and the things of Godin his fellowman.By an iron curtainof unreasoning hatred he is excludedfrom a life of charity among men.  \nAs love unites,hatred divides.Pre-cisely because of its divisive hatred,prejudice is a very profound dangerto American democratic living.Esseln-tial to the survival of democracy isthe rational and charitable coöpera-tion of its citizens;prejudice,byreason of its petty irrationality andinsane hatred,precludes that coöpera-tion.  \nAn insidious attribute of prejudiceis its tendency to strike out indis-criminately against all normal group-ings of human beings.Those whocling to prejudice are too often fatallyignorant of its boomerang quality.Inevitably,prejudice tends like anecstatic Frankenstein to envelope inthe suicidal destructiveness of its all-pervasive hatred,not just its posses-sor,but all other social groups aswell.Of its nature prejudice begetsprejudice.Its
