Criticizes America For Not Aiding
Britain.
In the London Evening News of
December 10 was published the fol-
lowing poem by William Watson,
under the heading ITO America
Concerning England"
art thou her child born in the
proud midday,
OF her large souls abundance and
success,
Her daughter and her mightiest
heritress,
lowered with her thoughts and lit
on thy great way
BY her great lamps that shine and
fail not? Yea
And at this thunderous hour of
struggle and stress,
Hitler across the ocean wilderness,
What word comes frozen on the
frozen spray?
Neutrality! The tiger from his den
Springs at thy mothers throat!
And canst thou now
Watch a strangers gaze? So be it
then.
Thy loss is more than hers-for
bruised and torn,
She shall yet live without thine aid; /;
and thou
Without the crown divine thou
mightst have worn"
