During World War I, attitudes toward the American flag were such a test of patriotism that persons suspected of disloyalty were forced to kiss the flag in public. A. TrueB. False

The answer is A) : True.

Explanation:

During World War I, when America (USA) declared war on Germany, most Iowans supported America and its allies; on the other hand, some Iowans who had come to America from Germany, but still had relatives in Germany, did not support America; at times some Iowans (Americans) who had German roots, would publicly declare their support for Germany. This caused their neighbors who supported America to question their loyalty to America, and put it to the test by requesting that they take a loyalty oath, or salute the American flag, or even kiss it.
