Excerpt from The Great Menace: Americanism or Bolshevism?

This book has been written in the belief that it will help in an immediate nationwide campaign of publicity of the disaster facing our country in the Great Menace.

The greatest peril of America is not ultra-radicalism, but indifference to it, a listless confidence that "it can't be done." In referring to the present active policy for "the confiscation of private property, the assassination of public officers, the burning of army barracks and police stations, the over-tum of the United States Government, " the New York Times makes this pertinent comment, "How much effect does this have on the 'ordinary American citizen?' It is nonsense. 'They can't do it?' Well, there are a good many of these offensive people in the United States, and they are not conscious that they can't do it.
