would be doing while we were getting
our l0OO,OOO men together. They would
have means OF knowing what we are
doing and they would send out a de-
tachment and bust UP" our whole en-
terprise. They would probably levy on
New York City for a billion dollars. and
levy upon every city In the captured area
every dollar that could be squeezed from
the inhabitants under threats OF de-
struction.
Not only this, but they might take the
notion. and probably would take the mo-
ton. TO annex the country, Just as Ger
many mas annexed Belgium. and. as we
would then automatically become citizens
OF the enemy's country, we would be
conscrpted and forced TO fight our own
people. just az the Belgians have been
forced into the ranks OF the Germans.
