WASHINGTON, D.. c., Aug. g.
To offset the "evil influences that
are at work President Wilson to-
day wrote Representative Dyer
Missouri, to express again his con-
fidence in the loyalty Of most citi-
zens of German blood In this
country.
Dyer wrote the president COM
planning of persecution" Of Ger
man Americans in st. Louis by
government officials. He quoted
as one instance the case of Otto
Sassmann, st. Louis railway mail
clerk dismissed for "disloyalty."
Dyer found Sassmann had been
in the government service for 16
years and had served in the Span
ish war, subscribed for Liberty
bonds, contributed to the Red
Cross and had flown the Stars and
Stripes from his home since the
declaration of war with Germany.
your letter struck a respon-
sive chord In my mind" the presi-
dent replied. II have been aware
from various sources, of the un-
fortunate position in which a very
large number of our loyal fellow
citizens are placed because of their
German origin or utilization.
81 am sure they need no further
assurance from me of my conf
dence in their entire integrity and
loyalty of the great body of our
citizens of German blood. You
know that not once, but many
times in my public addresses |
have expressed this confidence.
IL do not like to make another
occasion to express it simply be-
cause 1t would seem to indicate on
my part a doubt as to whether the
country had believed my previous
assurances to be sincere.
MAY / not very respectfully
suggest that it would be easy to
make use of the passages | have
referred to from my former adj
dresses to do something, | hope
not little. to offset the evil in
fluences that are at work."
