| Abstract | The author examines the question of where German-Americans' sentiments lie in light of "The Great War," World War I. He directly addresses his readers as fellow German-Americans and poses many questions about their convictions regarding the war. He ends with a plea: "And I say to you most solemnly, the time has come for all of us who are of German origin to stand forth and, individually and collectively, publicly declare ourselves: 'I, an American citizen of German blood, believe in America, my country, and the principles of liberty, equality and democracy for which she stands. Therefore, and inevitably, I am against Germany. I wish to see my country victorious and Germany defeated. To the fulfillment of this wish I pledge my hands, my heart and my spirit.'" |
