America's Crop of Hate

This article presents the author's views on the issue of hatred against Americans. They are sporadic and local, and not yet serious probably provoked in many cases by over-stimulated and bad-mannered Americans. But no observer can truthfully report that the situation, either in England or France, is satisfactory for those Americans who ardently desire that their country shall riot only live in amity with the leading European nations but shall have their good-will and regard as well. In England there is an increased dislike of the Americans particularly among the privileged Tory classes, but also among many plain people who come in contact with the rowdy American tourists who appear whenever one of the great liners discharges its cargo at Southampton or Plymouth.
