PROMPT: Evаluаte the extent tо which beliefs аbоut threats tо the United States shaped society from 1917 to 1945. Document 1 Source: Henry Cabot Lodge, senator from Massachusetts, speech in the United States Senate on the Treaty of Versailles, 1919 No doubt many excellent and patriotic people see a coming fulfillment of noble ideals in the words “league for peace.” We all respect and share these aspirations and desires, but some of us see no hope, but rather defeat, for them in the murky covenant. 1 . . . We would not have our politics distracted and embittered by the dissensions of other lands. We would not have our country’s vigor exhausted or her moral force abated by everlasting meddling and muddling in every quarrel, great and small, which afflicts the world. Our ideal is to make her ever stronger and better and finer, because in that way alone, as we believe, can she be of the greatest service to the world’s peace and to the welfare of mankind.1 treaty Document 2 Source: A. Mitchell Palmer, United States attorney general, “The Case Against the Reds,” magazine article, 1920 Like a prairie-fire, the blaze of revolution was sweeping over every American institution of law and order a year ago. It was eating its way into the homes of the American workman, its sharp tongues of revolutionary heat were licking the altars of the churches, leaping into the belfry of the school bell, crawling into the sacred corners of American homes . . . burning up the foundations of society. . . . . . . The Department of Justice will pursue the attack of these “Reds” upon the Government of the United States with vigilance, and no alien, advocating the overthrow of existing law and order in this country, shall escape arrest. Document 3 Source: Madison Grant, article in The Forum magazine, 1924 [Recently,] the chief cause of migration to this country has been the desire of the submerged and poverty-ridden elements in Europe to secure a share in our wealth and prosperity. They moved in vast numbers, especially from countries . . . where low standards of living prevail, into North America where wages are large, food and work abundant, and where the standard of living is very high—for the masses probably the highest in the history of the world. If unchecked, this threatened influx of foreigners will submerge the native population and ultimately reduce the standing of living of the average man to low levels. . . . The restriction of immigration is primarily necessary to prevent our present population, native and foreign alike, from being overwhelmed by numbers. This means that we must have a numerically restricted immigration. Document 4 Source: Smedley D. Butler, “War is a Racket,” speech, 1935 War is a racket. It always has been. It is possibly the oldest, easily the most profitable, surely the most vicious. It is the only one international in scope. It is the only one in which the profits are reckoned in dollars and the losses in lives.A racket is best described, I believe, as something that is not what it seems to the majority of people. Only a small “inside” group knows what it is about. It is conducted for the benefit of the very few, at the expense of the very many. Out of war a few people make huge fortunes. . . .How many of these war millionaires shouldered a rifle? How many of them dug a trench? . . . For a great many years, as a soldier, I had a suspicion that war was a racket; not until I retired to civil life did I fully realize it. Now that I see the international war clouds again gathering, as they are today, I must face it and speak out. Document 5 Source: “Neutrality,” political cartoon depicting three United States Senators, 1939 Document 6 Source: Sachi Kajiwara, Japanese American woman, recollection of events at the racetrack in California that was converted into an internment camp, circa the mid-1940s I worked as a recreation leader in our block [of internees] for a group of 7-10 year old girls. Perhaps one of the highlights was the yards and yards of paper chains we (my 7-10 year old girls) made from cut up strips of newspaper which we colored re d, white, and blue for the big Fourth of July dance. . . . These paper chains were the decoration that festooned the walls of the Recreation Hall. It was our Independence Day celebration, though we were behind barbed wire, military police all around us. Document 7 Source: Mary McLeod Bethune, educator and civil rights activist, speech, circa 1942 This [world] war has given all Americans a lot to think about and a lot to do. . . . We have seen . . . whole groups of Europeans [deprived] of . . . the right to marry, the right to have families as we have known them and to give their children a fair start in the world. We look at our own country and realize that, while we have not yet achieved the full dream of democracy here, we do have the basis for making that dream come true—the opportunity to struggle toward better things for ourselves and our children, the right to the pursuit of happiness. . . . We can see we have a two-way war to wage and win: 1. Actual fighting by land and sea against totalitarian aggressors; 2. Utilizing all our opportunities to make ourselves better citizens of this democracy and to give our children a still better chance to carry on the democracy of the future. . . . . . . Sometimes, it may seem as if the Negro has almost too much to struggle against. . . . [But] we have accepted the challenge of democracy. . . . We are carrying out this American process perhaps more intensely than any other group in the population. “Speech by Mary McLeod Bethune, n.d.
