1t is recorded that in Yorkshire in
1901, Henry Jenkins was born. He
died in 1870, cut off at the age of
1863. He remembered well the battle
of Flodden Field. This occurred In
1913, when he was IL years Of
age. The Register of Chancery and
other courts show the administra-
ton of oaths to him 140 years prior
to his death. He gave deposition as

AND
MILITARY SERVICE

Before there was any notion that
of the Europeans. the United States
had been making efforts to trans
form immigrants into good Ameri-
cans. At that time our preoccupa-
than with ourselves We wanted to
make him American because to be
American seemed to us comfort
able condition for him to be In. We
washed him up and sometimes put
him to work.
The situation has been reversed.
We now want the immigrant Ameri-
canized because our own safety de-
mands it 1t has become clear that
we are not one nation. Our absorp-
tive limit has been reached and
passed. We have not found process
of common experience strong enough
to weld the newcomers into our
selves.
There is at present no means by
which we can understand one an
other. We bear no responsibilities In
common. We have no defined com
mon aim. Our Industrial organiZa-
ton has aggravated the situation. A
man must be specialized in these
days. Whether he be a street sweep
er or an electrical engineer, the tech
mic Of his profession requires actual
preparation in order to be successful.
A man does not attempt to under
stand the work or the problems OF
those in other fields. There is no
time for it.
One of our imperative national
needs is a basis upon which we can
think in terms of common exper-
ience.
Probably our national system OF
education is In part accomplishing
this end. 1t fails in one respect. No
sense of responsibility toward the
United States is impressed upon the
student. 1t cannot be. Education
does not imply service to the state.
Another form of education sug-
gests itself as helpful. That is uni
versal military education. In
country where educational oppor-
tunities are In the main equal, no
one class of citizens can create an
