- Circulars Collection | Circular: “Americans! Wake Up! The ideals and characters of our national heroes of Revolutionary fame are being attacked and undermined. Our history is being distorted and polluted and our children thereby de-Americanized. The achievements of the many different races–Irish, German, Italian, French, Scandinavian, Slavik, Polish, Spanish, etc., in founding, developing, and maintaining the institutions of this our country are treated with contempt to the glory of England–the age-long, implacable foe of America.” Circular criticizes the United States’ proposed participation in the League of Nations. Includes a poem titled “The Anglo-Saxon Race,” by M. Halpin., ca. 1920 Sept
