must protest against the approx
al of this outrageous treaty.
Why, we ought to pay poor,
bleeding and suffering Germany
an indemnity. We ought to give
her, not only Alsace and Lorraine,
but half dozen other rich prov
inces of France, and let her keep
Belgium. Why, Mr.. President,
we stabbed poor stricken Germ
any in the back, while England
and France held her down., and
vet Senators wo6ld make the
sinned against pay for the crime
of the sinner.I warned the Senate
that we were being dragged into
| war by the President of the
! United States, who had surren-
dered to the predatory interests;
| | told the people in signed IN
terview, long after we had en-
tered the war, that we were
i fighting a war waged by US
purely for pecuniary profit, and
because Germany interfered
with our commerce between New
York and London. Why, Mr..
President, to force Germany,
who did everything that she
could to keep US out of war, and
was more respectful of Internal
ional law than her enemies; per-
fdious England, who didn't kill
our women and children, but in
terfered with commerce with
Germany; and treacherous
France, who didn't. do anything
to US, but fought the Germans
on her own soil, when they only
intended to take a JOY ride to
Paris; such action on the part of
America will be the greatest
| outrage in history. We have
no right to weep for our boys, or
even remember their sacrifices
and their glorious achievements
at this hour. A majority of
them are only conscripts anyway
and held by brave men in equal
contempt with the convicts. Did
we not send them to the slaugh-
ter purely for profit and pelf?
Did not the Nations chosen
chief barter our manhood to
England for pecuniary profit?
No, a thousand times No, say |,
| | will not be a party to such out
rageous treatment of an innocent
and long suffering nation. Ask
Germany for forgiveness, and
pay her what she wants. We
are the criminals and should pay
for our crimes.
