We do not think there is any
question of the attitude of the
German-American in case of war
with Germany; of course they
have "a tender feeling for the faith
erland and no one blames them
for it, but in case it came to a
choice between the old country
and the adopted country, there
are very few who would not take
their stand with t h United
States, even had they been born
across the sea. They came here
because of the advantages afford,
ed by our free institutions, and
they are ready to fight for them,
even, if necessary, against the
land of their birth. America has
no better citizens than the Ger
man.American they are patri-
otic and true.
