From the June-July, 1918 issue of Manna
WHO AM I?
WHO AM I?
I am more powerful than the combined armies of the world.
I am more deadly than bullets, and have wrecked more homes than the mightiest of siege guns.
I steal in the United States alone over $300,000,000 a year.
I spare no one, and find my victims among the rich and poor alike; the young and the old; the young and the weak; widows and orphans know me.
I massacre thousands upon thousands of working people in a year.
I lurk in unseen places, and do most of my work silently. You are warned against me but heed not.
I am everywhere: in the home, on the street, in the factory, at railroad crossings, and at sea.
I bring sickness, degradation and death, and yet few seek to avoid me.
I destroy, crush and maim; I give nothing, but take all.
I am your worst enemy.
