To replenish the Treasury they would rather invade the tomb of the dead American than to exact justice from .the greedy foreigner. They prefer .to penalize home thrift to takingtribute from the alien Whom our complacency made rich. They elect to bondour children andtheirs for .generations rather than hamper the stranger at our gates. who brings us little. .pays .no tax. and takes away much that we need. .Many of us .-prefer Americans. native .or naturalized. to anybody else on earth. We would rather -dominate the Western Hemisphere through the Monroe ddctrine than -to become a minor member iof any iworld league. The other side believes that water is thicker than blood. especially if that water is salt water. sanctified by the passage to our shores .of -foreign goods.
