when this long agony is over, he
will not be written in history as
one of the two or three greatest
products of the Anglo-Saxon
race in its entire record either
in England or America. That
"either or" is entirely justified
because we can be pardoned in
our pride that his mother was
an American.

PeODIe Should Protest

I BELIEVE it is about time that the PEOPLE
i of the United States were asked what they
think of present world conditions, and what
the position of our country should be.
believe that if we continue on our present
course that we will be drawn into the
European war.
We are supposed to be neutral. Hasn't
the last World War taught us anything?
Have we forgotten so soon?
Let us keep out of this European mess by
minding our own business. If we the people
rise and demand this, then we will stay out
of war.
Why should one man have the power to
draw our sons and husbands into such
horrible thing?

War Not Of Our Making

NIE SHOULD definitely not enter the
w European war which is not of our
making but was declared by England without
asking us for permission.
The present course pursued by our Chief
Executive and his war-mongering and money
lending cohorts. if persisted in, will definitely
involve us in war.
We should not under any circumstances,
ally ourselves with England in her war. Let
her fight one of her wars alone for once.
This idea of Germany invading us next
if England is beaten is nothing but pure war
propaganda dished out by England's money
classes and nobility. The only country that
ever invaded us is England
