Item description from seller

An Australian imprint showing support for the United States after initial Australian resentment due to their lack of protest to Germany invading Belgium. The first page shows a graphic of Uncle Sam sending ships to England and Belgium with the title 'How America is Helping the Allies to Crush Germany.' Discussion points include understanding that Australians 'resented - many of us resent still - the fact that the United States did not protest against the Teutonic invasion of Belgium.' and the fact that Allies have gone to the US to supply £100,000,000 pounds worth of war munitions. "We know here in Australia how exceedingly difficult it has been to fit out even 40,000 men." Ending with 'A Splendid Tribute from Japan,' then a member of the Allies. Small 8vo, 16pp, brown paper wrappers, (front detached), staplebound. Front dusty, corners chipped, internally clean.
