Where is her 100 per cent Americanism Let's impeach her at once!! I regret that I did not see this copy of May 4th of which she speaks. When I go to Paris I intend to go to the Herald office and see a copy on file there. It will be interesting to see who wrote a letter to the Herald and what he or she said.
