Summary

The German Press on the War

The Times has no sympathy with the mischief-makers who are trying to stir up ill-feeling between the American and German peoples. It has more than once expressed a wish to see Germany included in a union of interests with England and the United States. Kent and Suffolk are not the easternmost homes of our kindred. They dwell beyond the German Ocean, too, and we would gladly stretch hands across two seas to clasp theirs. Moreover, The Times has constantly insisted that the ill-natured and provocative German press did not and could not reflect the views of official Germany.

The German Press on the War

But in later issues of The Nation evidences of real sympathy with the United States have been disappointingly few, and too frequently its brief comments on the progress of the war have had a tone of headache and fatigue that is almost as far from friendship, sympathy, and justice as the sneers and slurs of the openly hostile press of Germany.

OUR GERMAN CRITICS.
“ ‘We have fresh evidence every day how unprepared the United States was for war. The Chauvinists over there are finding out what it means to fling a country head over heels into a war; and unfortunately the rest of the world must reckon with the possibility that the Spanish-American trouble will for a long time to come disturb the international situation.’ — The Berlin Nation.
