...give out approval to the order issued to the Four-Minute Men forbidding a campaign of hate--a methodical fanning of hatred against Germans and the German idea. This is America, where people form their own opinions and emotions. "We hate as one," said Lissauer's Hymn of Hate, and that was good German system, organization, propaganda.
