American People Uphold Him.

In the position taken by this note the
President has the support of the united
American people. When the German
note to which this makes reply was read
here some Americans felt that it justi-
fled the ending at once of diplomatic
relations. All Americans found it I'M
satisfactory, but the prevailing opinion
counseled acceptance of the new order
to submarine commanders, the rejection
of all conditions. Choosing that course
of action, President Wilson again shows
patience, he gives proof of our desire to
continue relations of friendship with
Germany. 1t was better so if there was
any doubt about the unanimity of the
country's feeling. There can be none,
there will be none now, for the most
persistent leader for long suffering and
the proffer of the other cheek knows
that all exhortations to meekness have
been honored by us even beyond scrip
tural requirement"
The labor advocate. [volume] (Cincinnati, Ohio) 1912-1937, 1916-05-27
IMMIGRANTS NEED MORE
THAN PATRIOTIC TALKS

Los Angeles, Calm an address be-
fore the convention of California Social
Agencies, Secretary Scharrenberg of
the State Federation of Labor told the
delegates that the trade union movement
was the most potent factor in the Amer
icanizing of immigrants and that these
aliens need more than patriotic talks.
"Herded into the mills and mines,
the body and destroy the mind living
in slums, shacks and bunkhouses, the
immigrants last condition is worse than
his first" said the unionst.
Because he is disappointed in his
hopes and ambitions the immigrant
turns from the spirit of Americanism
and surrenders to the spirit born of the
actual conditions of his life, a spirit of
revolt against society.
"To meet this danger, numerous eX-
pedients have been devised. These me-
thods have for their object the dissent
nation of patriotic sentiment by appeal
to nation history and tradition, by teach
ing politics and civics and by various
exercises calculated to inspire reverence
for the flag and to strengthen devotion
to the things of which that emblem is
the symbol.
THE patriotic address, the tlag-rais-
ing exercises, the welfare work, how
ever well meant and however successful
their appeal to the emotions leave I'M
touched the real need OF the case, name
ly the need to realize in practical ways
the promised opportunity for liberty and
full development upon the highest plane
Of social justice and equality.
"The labor union is the only move
ment OF fundamental reform in the con-
ditions Of labor, the only movement that
makes for Americanization by making
for the establishment in the daily lives
of the people of that condition which we
regard as the essence OF Americanism,
the opportunity for full social justice.
what hollow mockery is all talk
of Amcricanzation unless the 'Ameri-
canzers' see to it that sufficient leisure
is provided to enable the immigrant to
take advantage of the educational op-
portunites offered. In this particular
field Of endeavor-shortening the work
day-the labor union has been the pio-
neer and has maintained the leadership
right up to date"
