The sinking of the hospital ship Llandovery Castle, with its evidence of her sailing having been betrayed by a spy, has roused resentment to such a degree in England that there is an insistent demand that all Germans be interned and their families sent back whence they came. In the discussion in Parliament Premier George agreed drastic action was called for, and added. It was difficult to preserve one's temper when one heard of aliens crowing about German victories. There was never a case of a British setback when he did not get numerous letters written by Germans in Britain crowing over it. These letters bore a British postmark, and obviously were written by Germans. That sort of thing must be stopped. The American people desire like legislation. Evidence that millions have been subscribed by wealthy residents of German origin to stir up opposition to the government and to destroy factories and storehouses has evoked a bitter feeling. The strikes which are hindering the shipment of troops and supplies to France are blamed upon them. In fact, wherever in the States or Canada disaffection is found, Germans fan it by their agents.
