UNDER THREE FLAGS
German, Celtic and American
CoIors interviewed.
PERSONAL LIBERTY, MOTTO
Irish and Teutonic Societies Unite
in Tribute to German-Ameri-
can Alliance.

With the red, blue and black nag OF
Germany, the Stars and Stripes and the
green flag Of Ireland entwined above
them, 300 Celts and Teutons celebrated
the German American Alliance, which
was agreed upon a short time ago In
PHILADELPHIA when representatives Of the
leading German societies met those OF
their Irish brethren and agreed to COM
bine in order to help carry out that idea
of the fathers in founding the great
American nation-personal liberty.
With reference to this combination one
speaker, Representative DriscOll Of New
York, said that 50 per cent Of the voting
strength of the United States had been
garnered and could demand wise legisla-
ton at all times from the national legis-
lature. Representative Connell Of Massa-
chusetts declared that the impression
is abroad that the civilization of the
United States is Anglo-Saxon. and that
the old families Of the southland have
impressed the world that their members
are the purest Americans. Although he
is from New England. he said our his
tories do not give the proper credit to
the Irish and German soldiers who
fought to make the country free and in
dependent. He called OF a long list OF
Irish and German patriots, commencing
with Mad Anthony" Wayne. and de-
clared if "they were good enough for
Washington they are good enough for
posterity'' The histories, he said, have
in the main been written by those Of
Puritanical strain, and he hoped that
the writer's of the future could be in
nuenced to give credit where it was due.
