IABOLISHING The RYPHEN
By Frederic J. Haskin:

Uncle Sam is this fall opening the
doors Of hundreds Of Schools of Pa
triotism, scattered from one end Of the
nation to the other. and issuing invita-
ton to certain classes of the foreign
born within his gates to enter them
and learn how to become American
citizens.
Such schools. cooperating directly
with the federal government, have
never existed before. The curriculum
has just been made up. and the first
pupils are now matriculating 1t is
all being brought about through the
bureau of naturalization Of the Depart
ment of Labor.
Raymond F. Crist, deputy commits
sioner of that bureau, is a young man
Of broad vision. He has developed a
plan for co-ordinating the public
schools of the whole nation with the
naturalization of the foreigner. The
plan has been discussed and criticised
by many eminent authorities and edu-
Gators. and is now ready to be put into
operation.

The school authorities of many cities
are already asking for these lists of
eligible foreigners. who will fall to-
their care. They intend to supplement-
the encouragement extended by the
government by personally calling upon
these foreigners and directing them
into their classes.
Already reports are being received
which show how these adults are get
ting on with their education in the
night schools. There is an Italian
woman sixty-five years of age in
Seattle, whose husband has applied for
his first papers. Although she never
knew how to read or write in her ma
tive tongue she is going to school
and Is learning. at her age. to spell
out the meaning of her American
newspaper.
From the iron mines of Wisconsin
come reports of burly underground
workers who have entered the night
schools and are studying English and
citizenship. Six of these men already
have been advanced to the rank OF
straw boss" their employer stating
that their knowledge makes them bet
ter men, and that the effort they arel
putting forth deserves reward.

which transfers their allegiance. 1t is
no mere string of words. for IL reads:
Il hereby declare. on oath, that / alb
solutely and entirely renounce and alb
jure all allegiance and fidelity to any
foreign prince. potentate. state or SOW
ereignty. and particularly to that to
which l have been a citizen:
that will support and defend the Con-
stitution and laws of the United States
of America against all enemies. for
eign and domestic. and that / will bear
true faith and allegiance to the same"
There is every reason to believe that
the immigrant will respond to the
spirit of encouragement embodied in
the new schools of patriotism, and
make more rapid progress toward
similation with our population. Having
come here to secure the blessings of
greater measure of freedom. and to
earn a better wage for his labor he
should make all haste in preparing
himself for citizenship, to the end that
he will the more quickly enter into
full enjoyment of peace, prosperity and
contentment. 1t is a matter of vital
Importance to both himself and the
land of his adoption that he should
take his oath of allegiance and let the
hyphen go.

the schools very definite purpose
They should fit the student for passing
his examination and becoming a citz Zen.
Upon this basis the Schools of Patriot
ism were orasnized. Mr.. Crist last sum-
mer Travelled from one end of the coun-
try to the other, celebrating his plan to
school authorities. Everywhere it was
received with enthusiasm and arrange
menls were made Tor it's Inauguration.
There are practically but three
Things to be taught in the school of
patriotism. These are reading and
writing and citizenship. 10 learn to
read and write the applicant must, OF
course. learn to speak English. When
this is accomplished the duties OF
American citizenship will be elaborated.
Mr.. Crist holds that the American
child learns vastly more patriotism in
school than he does in the home, and
that the public school is admirable in
this respect. but in these schools for
foreigners the patriotic ravor will be
even stronger.

sued under the seal of the United
States government The applicant who
receives this certificate need have little
fear of being denied citizenship He
will have no difficulty in passing the
tests provided, and his teachers will be
in position to vouch for his personal
character.
With these schools definitely organ
lied in all the principal centers where
immigrants dwell, the bureau of natu-
radiation has prepared letter which
it is sending to every individual who
takes out his first papers. This in,li-
vidual is told that the school which
will teach him just the things he needs
to know has been established. and that
he is eligible to enter.
Not only is he entitled to attend free
of charge, but the same privilege is
extended to his wife. for she automati-
cally becomes a citizen if he is natu-
rallied. and should therefore know her
duties to the land of her adoption. In
at least for such officials as school
trustees. She should. therefore, learn
reading and writing anu patriotism.
The bureau points out to the pro-
spective citizen the advantages of
learning the language of the United
States and of gaining an understanding
of the fundamentals that lie back of
citizenship. 1t tells him that his OPP
portunities for work will be increased,
that he may earn more money. enjoy
more privileges. that his children may
have better opportunities.

American citizen. Prior to 1906 there
was no uniformity in the manner in
which he might be nsturalized. The
power of issuing papers to him lay
with certain local courts, and might be
used by politicians to their personal
advantage The law passed in 1906 es-
tablished the bureau of naturalization,
which has national jurisdiction over
the comforting of certificates of citizen
ship.
Since that time the naturalization
laws have been well administered, and
the government has become able to as
sure itself that the applicant is eligi-
Bile before it grants him papers. He
must pass certain examination and
produce good witnesses who will
swear that he is reputable and honest.
So citizenship has been placed on a
nigh plane and has become a recon-
mendation for the man to whom 1t Is
granted.
But the government has never done
anything to popuiariZe naturalization.

1t realized the effort that nae been re-
