This is such an interesting post! I've never read about Philadelphia's German American population before, so I appreciate this as an introduction of sorts. I also thought this seemed timely, given the recent release of the film, "The Post," which also addresses suppression of printed speech during wartime. Though the situations between Philadelphia's Tageblatt and the Pentagon Papers differed, this struck me as a fascinating precedent to the events that took place in the 1970s. Great work!
