...Senator is exactly right; the publication of this document by the Senate will only sow dissension among the people.

Many of us believe that Mr. Wilson has not taken the Senate sufficiently into his confidence and have criticized him accordingly. But that does not excuse the Senate for taking illegitimate means to discredit the administration...
...country of ill-feeling and disturbances between French and American soldiers and between British and Americans. Certain newspapers--not necessarily intentionally--distort the actual facts, magnify trivial incidents and in general do a great deal to spread the seeds of discord that the Boche have taken such pains to sow. Headlines such as the following may be seen almost daily in the news-papers: "British Even More Bitter Against Americans Than French"; "Charm of La Belle France a Myth"; "French Glad to See Last of Americans"; "Dislike on All Sides in England"; "Doughboys Receive Fair Treatment From Germans"; "American Troops...

Labor leaders take advantage of this to sow the seeds of class hatred, talking about the existence of an industrial monarchy in place of a political despotism. Then perhaps the foreigner strikes against his starvation wages, as he did in Lawrence where the average man's wage was $9 a week. Instead of tact and reason, clubs were used by the police in the Lawrence trouble and naturally this only intensified the feeling. The labor leaders tell their men that the troops, sent to protect "life, liberty and property," are protecting property alone; and the men, used to a centralized...
