THE HYPHEN FIGHT
New York Woman Denies
Democrats Led in Amer
foundations Program
REPUBLICANS
BACKED PLAN

NEW YORK. Aug. 15.-The weak
ness of the Administrations claim to
having put the hyphen out of bust
ness in Detroit and elsewhere. is
shown in an article in the Hughes
Campaign Service" out yesterday, by
Miss Frances Kellor. chairman of the
women's committee of the National
Hughes Alliance.
Frederick c. Howe, New York Com
missioner Of Immigration, declares in
"The Times" of August 10, that the
Americanization work in Detroit
which Mr. Hughes so highly COM
mcnded in his speech there. as well
as Americanization in other cities,
was due to the Wilson Administration.
This Miss Kellor denies.
"The real truth is that the cities
and the industries of America have
rallied to the call of Americanism and
have at their own expense done many
things which Commissioner Howe
suggests we're inspired by the Wilson
Administration" she says. "The Ad-
ministratiop has worked out no sus-
tanned national policy, and is the
phrase maker, exhibiting a fiimsy
structure that could be abolished to-
morrow without violating a single
law"
Detroit Financed II.
That Detroit's campaign for Amer
icanism was carried on without CO.
operation from the Administration,
that it was financed by Detroit and
was Detroit's own idea, for which Re-
publican National Committeeman
Charles B. Warren was largely re-
sponsible, are among the points made
by Miss Kellor.
What part Of the great appropria-
tons made by the Democratic Con-
eress has gone to increase the power
and efficiency of the Bureau OF Nat.
uralization?" she asks. What ha;
Congress done in the matter Of Fed.
eral aid to local communities in edu
cation? What appropriation does the
Bureau of Education get for its immi
grant work? In spite of Mr. Wilson's
words on hyphenism. what nationa
legislation covers the subject and
what money has been paid Out
or appropriated to achieve a united
America that hasn't been paid out il
other administrations when we dix
not realize we had a hyphen situa
tion2"
Miss KelIor says that the real test
lie in the answers to these question
and not in Wilson's address to III
foreign-born at Philadelphia.
"Americanism is a practical issue,
she concludes. "It is brought about ii
practical ways-by appropriations
educational policies, protective laws.
commend the establishment Of thu
Bureau of Industries and Immigra
ton. which was in many ways the mi
tial step in this country toward tn
