This is Prussianism! "By their deed ye shall know them!" Ruin, destruction and desolation mark the pathway of the Hun. Rheims and Louvain! Their shattered towers and crumbling walls cry to heaven for vengeance! Remember the fire, the sword, the axe that laid waste the whole countrysides with no other purpose than ruin. Now, crush this THING that is base and vile and shameful, and crush it forever. This is AMERICANISM! Buy bonds with cash and buy them on installments! And do it now!
