The response of our German language publications
the presidents to congress almost incredible
to the of American press They have brstled
with indignation that part the document which
condemned disloya citizenship urged the need Of

In this uteranee President Wilson mentioned no

iormy accepted the criticism as directed solely against
COMMUNICATIONS and against all German Americans.
What the German population as a whole thinks Of such
drastic condemnation hands of their own press
remains to be seen The rest of the nation would never
dream Of making such arraignment
It is all the more incomprehensble fact that
the president expressly declared that the offenders
though infinitely malignant" are mot many and paid
deserved tribute Of praise those sturdy hosts by
which our nation has been enriched in recent genera

Just as mysterious the attitude taken by these news
