Description: We Are at War- 1942 Colgate University President Cutten Pro-Prohibition for War Booklet. - - - DESCRIPTION & CONDITION: George Barton Cutten (1874–1962) “was a Canadian-born psychologist, moral philosopher, historian and university administrator. He was president of Acadia University from 1910 to 1922 and Colgate University from 1922 to 1942” [Wikipedia]. During his time at Colgate he fixed the university’s fractured finances, expanded the faculty, and rebuilt the curriculum. He also banned African-American students from attending, tried to ban Jews, and railed against immigration, warning that it would “dilute the higher divisions of the white race”. So there you go. He was also an ardent Prohibitionist, and in this speech, given to the Northern Baptist Convention, he warns that if unlimited alcohol is provided to American troops and civilians, our war prospects are bleak indeed.Pamphlet. 6”x9”, 7 pages. Minor soil, light wear.
