al Am American."-schumann-Heint


Denver.-Madame Schumann-Heink
expressed what has proved to be the
sentiment of the vast majority of Ger.
man-Americans when she was in Den.
yer recently. Although she believed
at that time that the possibility OF
war was remote, she discussed that
possibility freely. "If it should be
war; she said, II am an American
always an American. My heart would
be broken but it is America / would
choose in my heart. America is my
home. 1t is my home because l love
America. / can prc~e my love for
America better than those who were
born here, for l chose her for my
country, but they could not help being
Americans" This expression is given
tenfold weight in view of the fact
that Madame Schumann-Heink has a
son, brother and a brother-in-law
fighting in the German forces.
