Notes
  • Features a German map at center right and a slightly larger translation of this map into English at the top. The German-language map is described as "a photographic reproduction of a map recently published in Berlin." It shows a German Empire extending from Normandy to St. Petersburg. England and most of France are German colonies.
  • Likely published in 1917 or 1918.
  • Advt. no. 140.
  • Text and translated map in English; original map in German.
  • Like a greedy tongue the 'Deutsches Kaiserreich', the 'German Empire', has licked up the entire continent of Europe. Would Germany be satisfied with this? Not at all. The Kaiser has planned just such a map of the United States. He has frequently boasted that the United States would pay the expenses of the European War. He believes himself the destined successor to Caesar and Napoleon. His mania is for 'the earth with a gold fence around it' and the inscription 'German Empire' on the entrance gate. The Kaiser's dream must not come true. An American army and navy, American ships, guns, shells, and aeroplanes will teach Germany to deal fairly with the world. Words will not cure the Kaiser. Action is called for--all the action we can muster as a united nation. Buy Liberty Bonds!
