I Joined The Party Definitely In 1923 After Having Already Been In Sympathy With It Before.

I'm A Sailor, Not A Politician.

Many Years Before, I Had Left A Beautiful Country And A Rich Nation And I Returned To That Country Six Years Later To Find It Fundamentally Changed And In A State Of Upheaval, And In Great Spiritual And Material Need.

I Was Never Informed In Advance About The Start Of The War Or About Foreign Political Developments.

It So Happened That I Was On A German Sailing Vessel On The Way To Australia When The Ship Was Captured, And On The High Seas I Was Made Prisoner By The French.
