Another submarine blew up a ship that was carrying French soldiers who had surrendered back to France. They thought the sea was clear and they had safe conduct. I again pose the question. What if one of these American ships loaded with refugee children should be accidentally torpedoed or blown up by these magnetic mines or some daring persons. anxious to create sentiment against Germany. should intentionally torpedo or blow up the ship? It would be blamed on Germany or Italy. and our people would be swept into a war frenzy. and we might find ourselves involved in that war overnight. In that event our own children and our own country would be scourged by war.
