MacGregor's main purpose in providing the quote is to
Read the excerpt from Early Victorian Tea Set.
Among the upper classes, tea had been popular since
before 1700. It received celebrity endorsement from
Charles II's queen, Catherine of Braganza, and from
Queen Anne. It came from China, it was expensive,
refreshingly bitter and drunk in tiny cups without milk or
sugar. People kept their tea in locked tea caddies, as if it
were a drug; for those who could afford it, it often was. In
the 1750s Samuel Johnson confessed himself a happy
addict
explain why only the upper classes could afford to drink
tea
express his viewpoint on the importance of drinking tea
often
illustrate how celebrities preferred their tea with sugar
and milk
support his statement that people locked away their tea
like it was a drug.
A hardened and shameless tea drinker, who has for
twenty years diluted his meals with only the infusion of
this fascinating plant, whose kettle scarcely has time to
cool, who with Tea amuses the evening, with Tea
solaces the midnights, and with Tea welcomes the
morning

support his statement that people locked away their tea like it was a drug.

Explanation:

The quote is meant to provide an evidence or support why people lock away their tea in a similar fashion to that of possessing a drug. In those days, people who could afford to drink teas would place them in secure places like the "tea caddies." This shows how much they value tea. It also shows how tea was considered similar to that of drug for people drank it every time (morning, evening and midnight).

So, this explains the answer.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
