Carnac smiled, put the paper on his desk, and took the pen. "Make it measure the hate John Grier has to the Belloc firm," she said ironically. Carnac chuckled and wrote. "Will that do?" He handed her the paper. "One hundred and fifty dollars oh, quite, quite good!" she said. "But it's only a half hatred after all. I'd have made it a whole one."
Madame Belloc received, a day or two since, a letter from a lady in the old town of Orleans, which gave name to Joan of Arc, expressing the most earnest enthusiasm in the antislavery cause. Her prayers, she says, will ascend night and day for those brave souls in America who are conflicting with this mighty injustice.
"I don't believe it. He's got no love for Belloc." The girl felt like saying, "He's got no love for you," but she refrained. She knew that Fabian had love for his father, but he had inherited a love for business, and that would overwhelm all other feelings. She therefore said: "Why don't you get Carnac to come in? He's got more sense than Fabian and he isn't married!"
Belloc, in a debate against Bernard Shaw, predicted that Socialism, if it comes in England, will probably be simply "another of the infinite and perpetually renewed dodges of the English aristocracy." Not only Czar and Kaiser but even the Catholic Church may be claimed as Socialistic by this standard. Mr.
A hygienic, attentive, and essentially anaesthetic Eagle checks, in the absence of exercise, any undue enlargement of our Promethean livers.... Chesterton often but never by any chance Belloc. Belloc I admire beyond measure, but there is a sort of partisan viciousness about Belloc that bars him from my celestial dreams. He never figures, no, not even in the remotest corner, on my ceiling.
Belloc seems to have expressed this mood completely and so to have shown we have said as it were by accident an abiding and fundamental mood. We have been constrained to criticize his poetry much as he has criticized the poetry of others, that is to say, sporadically and without continuity.
But before we enter upon our examination of the nature and influence of those writings, it may be well to emphasize their importance as an example of style. In his writings on the war, and more especially in his weekly chronicle in Land and Water, Mr. Belloc is not expressing views or ideas of his own; he is not writing in support of the thesis or argument; he is stating facts.
"I bought him out to-day, and I hear he's going to join Belloc." "Belloc! Belloc! Who told you that?" asked the young man. "Junia Shale she told me." Carnac laughed. "She knows a lot, but how did she know that?" "Sheer instinct, and I believe she's right." "Right right to fight you, his own father!" was the inflammable reply. "Why, that would be a lowdown business!"
Our real difference is only about a little more or a little less owning. I do not see how Belloc and Chesterton can stand for anything but a strong State as against those wild monsters of property, the strong, big private owners. The State must be complex and powerful enough to prevent them. State or plutocrat there is really no other practical alternative before the world at the present time.
Belloc had regarded an enemy offensive in the West in the spring of 1915, as certain to take place, whereas, in point of fact, the Germans made their great effort against the Russians in the East. This was the chief charge brought against Mr. Belloc; and to it were added a number of lesser charges of which the majority were perfectly just, showing how in this place and in that Mr.
