"FOR

war for Humanityg' are you ready to fight?
The pro-British ask you, please answer, are they right?
AFor humanity's sakeF' to the heart it appeals,
But let reason prevail and see what it eonceaIs.
For HUMANITY is but hypocrsys vail
To save tools Of murder under the British sail.
No cost is to precious to help England to win
With money, ammunition and freedom thrown in.
Cur neutrality is cnesided affair,
It works but for England, and the profits we share.
The dollar rule supreme IN politics and trade.
lNS the God in whom trust who SOW a crop Of hate.
Our dollar must enable Old England to perform
Her Iawlesg plans to starve mothers and newly born.
The shops of our country make tools Of murder now,
We reap the bloody gain, Gains mark on our brow.
Yes, we protect this trade of powder, shell and guns
On ships with Englands flag, with LIES of our Own sons.
Starvation Of a nation is true humanity,
Bat sink our ammunition is lawless, do you see?
10 trade in murder tools is legal and is fair,
To save the German babes il not our countries care.
A ~sel6shness 50 base, 50 anneutral and low
SEsuld not be made a cause for which to war we 60.
Think first Of our country, the useless sacrifice,
OF widows, orphans tears and broken friendship ties.
@ stop the murder trsde, send bread dear hfes to save;
Go heal the million wounds, that our weapons madel
That seems to be fair play and true humanity.
Q Godl do grant US peace and make from guilt us free.

Four great women's colleges-Mount
