MORE IMPRACTICAL FADDISTS

The National AmercanizatiOn Committee a new
organization of impractical faddists with headquarters
in New York City, has asked $50 colleges to take definite
steps to train and women by courses and lectures
to become leaders in Amercanzation The association
was born at dinner Of the Vincent Asors October 15
without any especial parentage just coming to life some
place between soup and desert Someone expressed the
idea that all foreigners should be taught to speak Eng

into life Here are some of the things it wants:
1--WE need to be that the foreign-speaking men
manning our railroads. making up our construction
gangs filing our ammunition and other factories are
American in their ideals their loyates their regard for
American citizenship. We need to make every foreign
speaking community American community in its social
ideals and its standards of living.
"The only way to do these things is to that the
ways and means of assimilation available to every
immigrant now living in this country, and that ne is in
vted and encouraged to them The English language
must be universally taught and used. Naturalization
must be encouraged Immigrant women must be taught
how to keep the baby well in American climates, must
learn our methods of sanitation kinds of food etc. i'm
migrant homes to become American homes and Amer
lean standards of living are to prevail"
AS usual with these hafbaked associations they un-
dertake to prescribe remedy without understanding the
disease Instead of appealing to the colleges to teach the
English language to the foreign speaking men, manning
our railroads. making up our construction gangs and fill
ing our ammunition and other factories would it not be
better to appeal to the railroad managers and the
of "our ammunition and other factories" to employ
American labor and pay American wages?
1t is not the poor devil of immigrant that needs
education along these lines but the greedy American
railroad or factory owners who import this class of labor
in order to reduce wages.

that he she had better uf humanity and improve the

EdisOn's Prophecy
