Down Germs

"Down Germs". Can the word 'down' take on the form of a verb? If it were so, how would you explain this slogan to someone learning grammar!? Often, we would say "Down with the ..."- especially during World War II when Singapore's independence was still a few years away. Should the word 'with' then be inserted inside this slogan also?
