AMERICA FIRST.

When President Wilson in his
address to the Daughters of the
American Revolution said: 81
look forward to the necessity in
every political agitation in the
years which are Immediately at
hand of calling upon every man
to declare himself where he
stands. Is America first, or is it
not? I" =" l believe that the glory
of America is that she is great
spiritual conception" he voiced
the greatest issue which today
confronts the nation.
It has been the dream Of those
who stand for practically an un-
restricted immigration that in the
United States all races and ma
tionalities, inspired by the princi-
pies upon which our government
was founded, might amalgamate
into the ideal nation; and writ
ers have called us the Melting
Pot" But now that grave crisis
confronts us and the peace OF
ninety-five million people, which
now hangs by the slender thread
of neutrality, is menaced we find
that our melting pot has
failed. Much of our metal has
failed to fuse.
We find that we have cast in
our molds not all Americans, but
on the contrary we have evolved
the hyphenated American in sew
eral different varieties, with as
many varieties of patriotism not
for our own government but for
the fatherland or motherland, as
the case may be-.
No nation with the allegiance
of her citizens divided can sur
vive, and our problem is a seri
Gus one If America, and all that
she stands for in government by
the people, freedom of worship,
education and speech, liberty and
equality in opportunity, cannot
make for patriotism and undivid-
ed loyalty in our adopted citizens,
in justice to our country and the
ideals for which she stands, can
We continue to adopt our citi-
zens?
"America first" in peace and
in war. With this sentiment on
ly can we guard our nation and
her ideals.
