Universal Brotherhood, could this be a beginning?

I just received my copy of The Quest, the periodical of The Theosophical
Society in America, and on the back cover is the following:
Universal brotherhood--the keen realization of the spiritual and natural
oneness of humankind--is the only key to peace that will last. If we would have
permanent peace, we should create the international spirit and sustain it;
otherwise we cultivate that which is contrary to the spirit of true
brotherhood and justice. Let us determine to abolish from our hearts all moral
trickery, all selfish grasping and advantages, all fear of our fellowmen, and war,
even all fear of war, will dissolve away as do the mists before the morning
sun. War will become impossible; for war is merely the effect, the symptom, of
inner moral weakness.
-- Katherine Tingley
I am surprised to find this on the back cover of this magazine, but elated
that this may be signalling a new attitude and era in the Adyar TS.
