Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from With the Allies
To the American women Miss Ida M. Tar bell writes: This is her time to learn what her own country's industries can do, and to rally with all her in?uence to their support, urging them to make the things she wants, and pledging them her allegiance.
This appeal is used in a periodical with a circulation of over a million, as an advertise ment for silk hose. I do not agree with Miss Tarbell that this is the time to rally to the support of home industries. I do not agree with the advertiser that when in Belgium several million women and children are home less, starving, and naked that that is the time to buy his silk hose. To urge that charity be gins at home is to repeat one of the most selfish axioms ever uttered, and in this war to urge civilized, thinking people to remain neutral is equally selfish.
