PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 21.-In speech delivered here today, former Secretary of State Philander c. Knox made numerous remarks concern ing what he calls President Will sons 'hyphenated" phrase. He made no comment concerning the Presidents speech on his national defense program or on the program itself, but stated that he greatly deplores the phraseology used by the chief executive
 The phrase "hyphenated citizens is obnoxious to the American peo- pie generally, according to Mir Knox He says that it places millions un- der suspicion of being American citizens with foreign sympathies. which attitude on the part of the President is unbecoming his po- sition, to say the least.

DIVIDENDS WILL SOON BE
 PAID ON kENNECOTT

The basis for expectation of divi- dends on the Kennecott Copper at the rate of s5 per share per annum in January is that from the pres ent price Of copper the company is earning more than twice that sum. Under the mortgage indenture one-half of the net earnings must be set aside for the redemption of the $10000,000 10-year bonds until these have been paid off or con verted into stock The bonds are callable after June l, 1917, at 105 or exchangeable into stock at 1925 per share between June l, 1917 and June l, 1927.
 The company began it's year June and for the first three months produced 40.000,0O0 pounds January 1st there should be a production of 63,OOO,0O0 pounds for seven months and profit therefrom of about 13 cents. or over sS,O00,OOO Out of this must be taken interest at the rate of six per cent on the bonds
 A quarterly dividend of s125 in January on 72O.0OO shares would call for only s9O0,0OO When Ken necott bonds are converted the divi dends on 1,12o,OOO shares should be
