To the subjects of Germany and her ; Allies residing in the United ! States: Vou constitute a goodly portion of ! the four million residents of the Unl- ted States who were born in Germany ! ana Austria-Hungary.' You left your country because you were not satisfied with it. Life un der a military autocracy did not ap peal to you. You came to the United States in search of happiness. And you found it or you would not have remained. : We gave you welcome and our good will. We gladly shared with you our liberty and our prosperity. The vast majority of your number will repay our good will and hospitality by re fraining from giving offense to our people or our government during the approaching war with the ' central powers. And in this event the same flag will protect your rights in war that has protected them in peace. But there is a militant element among you with the spirit of violence and blood thirst upon them. ' You are urged to do your utmost during the trying days to come to re strain these people from lawless acts. Already, while at peace with our country, German spies and enthus iasts have destroyed property here and even human life in their zeal to serve their kaiser. Members of this hot-headed belllgerctit element are now located in virtually all of the great industrial plants, factories and transportation lines of our country and in many of our .commercial! dynamiting and destruction of Amer ican property and lite. Now is the time for you orderly, j law-abiding subjects of the two kais- 1 ers to organize to assist in preventing I this senseless program and the dead-: ly consequences which are sure to follow its inauguration. I There are no bounds to tbe fierce passions of a war mob. Its cruel ' wrath is sure to fall upon the lnno-j cent in far greater ratio than the guilty. j The injury which these enemies of our country within our borders, could do to our industries or in the destruc-1 tion of American lives would not have the slightest effect on the result of the war. j It is of importance that such peo-' pie who are preparing to violate the j law and to commit violence against ' our flag and our government should j know that they will not be treated as 1 soldiers or prisoners of war but as ' assassins and that, they will be promptly hanged. It is true that our government will not take prominent Germans aa host ages, stand them against a wall and shoot them 'when any ot their mis guided countrymen are guilty ot violence, as the German government has done in Belgium. It is also true that our civil authorities throughout the country have Ignored this danger and made virtually no preparation to meet It and we may suffer to some ex tent as a consequence. But the day ot reckoning will quickly com for such enemies as violate the asylum we have given them and which we will offer them during the war. Will you not do your share to prevent this utterly needless sacrifice ot lite and property that would follow such a program? . . Give heed to this suggestion that your comfort, your liberty and your property may not be endangered dur ing the war, and so that when it is all over you will again pursue nap piness with us in the old friendly, peaceful and prosperous way. Our people are easy. going, long suffering and slow to anger. But it Is a mistake to under-rate our will and our capacity for self-defense and to give punishment. For many long months the Ger man Government has continued to destroy our property, murder our cit izens and dishonor our flag on the free seas. It has officially initiated and officially admitted plots to set our neighbors at war against us. In cendiary and murderous enterprises against us have been designed and carried out within our borders by order ot German officials. Patiently have we endured these crimes and Indignities. Meekly have we humbled and humiliated ourselves before your government and the world to avoid the calamity of war. In return we have received neither apology nor reparation, but renewed violation of our rights and contemp tuous defiance ot our power to main tain them. The wrath ot our outraged people ia o.inina fnrfo and can no lonrer be bio O"." "o -- f, i -We know that we are not properly breoared for war.
