TARKINGTDN'S ANSWERS
TO HEINIE'S NONSENSE
By Booth Tarkington
Lie No. 1.—“This Is a capitalists'
war because the capitalists wanted
to keep on making money by manu
facturing and shipping munitions, and
they forced the government to declare
war in order to protect the boats."
Answer. The entrance of the United
States into the war took from the
capitalist his profits and is turning
them into labor. Probably there have
j been a few' food “profiteers” and the
; like, but they are being dealt with,
and the only financial profit from the
war accrued to laboring men.
I^je No. 2.—“This is a capitalists'
war because the capitalists had bought
English bonds and were afraid the
bonds would be worthless if Germany
won.”
j Answ'er. Then, since the “munition
j capitalists” lose money by the war,
and the capitalists who had bought
German bonds would oppose war, it
was a struggle of these two classes
of capitalists for peace, opposed by
j those who had bought English bonds.
The latter w'ere incomparably in the
! minority and could not have won such
I a struggle even if it had taken place,
j Of course it is also necessary to as
j sume that the capitalists who brought
I on the war caused the events which
caused the American people to declare
| through their representatives that they
| were in a state of war with Germany,
'These events which the capitalists
! must have caused were, namely, the
j sinking of the “Lusitania” (114 Amer
icans murdered); of the “Arabic” (3
I Americans murdered); of the “Hes
j peTian” (1 American murdered); of
1 flip “Afnrinn” i £ 4moripana mil ^ •
of the “Russian” (17 Americans mur
dered); of the “Laconia” (8 Ameri
cans murdered'; of the “Vigilancia”
(5 Americans murdered); of the "Az
tec" (28 Americans murdered), and of
other sinkings and murders, if this
is a 'capitalists’ war the capitalists
were in control of the German sub
marines.
Lie No. 2.—“America has more to
j fear from England than from Ger
i many."
Answer. The English and German
| warships in Manila Bay, 1898. Zrm
j merman s note to Mexico. The kaiser’s
proposal to England to join him in at
tacking the Monroe Doctrine. The hai
I ser’s regrets th£t Europe had nut en
| couraged the South during the 'Civil
| war and his hopes that the East and
1 West might yet bo set againa. each
other so that . > weak countries
.might take the place of a single strong
\ one. *M shall stand no nonsense from
| America after the war,” he said re
jpeatedly to the American ambassador
| while America and Germany were on
terms of peace. Rut the final an
! swer to this most stupid of all lies is
| the history of the world since 1911,
j and in particular the record or rela
! tioiis between the United Stales and
I Germany beginning with the 7th ol
j May, ,19.1a.
^— vjuiujciiiy warns a just
peace and England is preventing it”
Answer. Ask the man who tells this
lie to state the German terms.
Lie. No. 5.—“The Red Cross is a
capitalists’ moneymaking concern, it
[ sold a sweater made by the grand
mother of a girl who lives on the coi
ner of Washington Street and Wilbur
Avenue.”
Answer. That girl hasn't got any
grandmother. Three corner lots ai
the intersection of Washington Street
and Wilbur Avenue are vacant, and
the fourth is occupied by a stag hotel.
Find another grandmother.
Lie No. 6.—“If you have a food con
servation card in your window the
guv’ment will come and take away
| “U y»ur jellies and preserves and
everything else you put up last fall.”
Answer. Yes, they’re for Mr. Rocke
feller. He’s fond of jellies and pre
serves and can’t afford to buy any.
Lie No. 7.—“If the allies lost the
war, that wouldn't hurt America any.
Germany wouldn’t try to do anything
to America, even if America were on
the losing side.”
Answer. "My heart bleeds for Lou
vain.” (The kaiser.)
Lies No. 8 to No. 1,263,407; that Is,
all the other lies. * * *
Answer. Find the German who
started them.
