STRONG WORDS FOR HUNS.
Manufacturers Record Assails The
Enemy and All His Work.

The Manufacturers Record use-
strong language when it talks about
the Germans. Following is a sample
of the Records remarks from week
to week:
German language papers, the
teaching of German in public schools
the singing in any school of German
songs, should be vigorously suppress
ed.
The very thought Of Germany and
of Germany's past and future mus,
be made so odious and hateful to al
decent human beings that the word
German will for generations to come
carry the meaning of all that is vile
and inhuman wherever heard.
The worlds civilization and the
strength of our moral forces demand
that all that is German in name or
thought or deed must be regarded
from the cradle to the grave as we
now think of lustful, british beasts,
of murderers, of treacher0us scoun-
drels, of all the vilest criminals VINO
have sunk to the lowest depth OF hu-
man rottenness.
Not to think of Germany in this
way would be to prove our own NOR
al flabbiness and our own readiness
to count as a bosom friend the unre-
pentant outrager of womanhood and
the murderer Of helpless infants.
The criminal who, standing by the
side of the cradle, murders IN cold
blood the helpless infant whom God
had sent to bless the earth, is not
more to be despised than Germany.
The lecherous scoundrel who be-
trays and outrages the innocent is
not more deeply sunk in sin than Ger
many.
The murderer who, in order to en-
rich himself, kills the sleeping fam
ily and burns the dwelling has as ms
EQUALS in foul depravity and devil
guided work millions and millions OF
Germans.
Germany the accursed is possessed
of the devil and by the devil, and for
it's own financial aggrandizement
murders, outrages, burns, staryes,
blisters unto death with it's hellfire
and smothers with hell-devised dead
ly gases millions of the very flower
of our civilization.
Your boy and your neighbor's boy
must stand between the women OF
this land and these british beasts
all because Germany for half CEN
tury has been training it's armies and
teaching it's people to take whatever
they wanted wherever and whenever
they had the power, regardless Of
morality or of right and wrong.
Therefore Germany must be made
odious to all the world, and no hon.
est-hearted, pure minded man or wo-
man should during the life of this
generation ever deal with pro-Ger-
man, ever buy or sell a German-made
product, ever associate with pro-
German.
Ostracism in business and in private
life should be the penalty of pro-Ger-
manism. and he who fails to pursue
this policy will show that he regards
business or social ties more highly
than morality and honor, and that he
has no hatred of murder or lust or
all the other vile crimes which have
brought to the world the greatest
sorrow and anguish ever known.
Let the nation therefore move with
energy and answering deter1nina-
tion to crush the reptile propaganda
which has worned its way into our
nation and which now seeks to sink its
poisoned venom into the breast that
has warmed it into life.
"Locate, eliminate and externlinate"
all that is pro-German in language, in
thought or in deed, wherever found
and under whatever guise.
We fight the most desperate hell
devised power which humanity has
ever faced, and if we show mercy it
will be counted as weakness and if
we should punish not the guilty with
out any sentimental, neurotic ideas of
such as those Of degenerate
women who write scented notes to
murderers and bedeck the cells of
rapists, we would cease to have any
individual or national morality.
War, accursed war, war of murder,
is being made against US, and we must
fight to live.
We must fight Germany and pro-
Germanism in whatever form they
appear and utterly destroy their pow
er for evil in evidence throughout our
country. Our beloved boys from
tover there" call us to heroic work
here to. stand behind them and de-
stroy those who are stabbing them
in the back from vantage points il,
America.
