EDUCATE FOREIGN BORN
Uncle Sans Bureau of Educa-
ton Starts New Movement.
War Americanization to Be Feature
of America First" Campaign
$4,000 Is Appropriated.

War Am"ricani2ation is signifl.
cant feature of the third "America
First campaign announced by Uncle
Sans bureau of education. This
unique plan is already being worked
out in New York city by an official of
the National Committee of One Hun
drcd which is associated with the bu-
renu as advisory council on Ameri-
canization. In that city the appeal
for war Americanization met with
such an enthusiastic response that
upon the suggestion of the mayors
defense committee. the board Of edu-
cation appropriated $4,000 to carry
out the plan.
The national scheme has been in
process of formation for several
months, and has been carefully work
ed out in consultation with federal
officials, representatives of national or
CARNATIONS and school authorities.
The aim of the third campaign will
be directed toward stimulating the
acquisition of the English language
by all immigrants, and toward inspir-
ing genuine allegiance to the United
States on the part of all citizens. The
bureau will be assisted in the cam
paign by the National Committee of
nhe Hundred, appointed last year by
the commissioner of education to as
sist bureau officials in all matters per-
tanning to Americanization To rem
der effective aid the committee has
opened headquarters in Washington
from which it is establishing contact
with national organizations and otii-
Gals. Already leading chambers of
commerce, several large cities, and a
number of patriotic and fraternal or
ganization, representing several million
members, are negotiating with the bu-
reau for the purpose of entering into
the campaign according to specifica-
tons outlined in official circulars.
Official records show that approx
imately 100000 foreign-born whites
residing in the United States do not
speak English. Only n small number
Of these have attended evening schools
to learn the language Indispensable to
employment, business and social rela-
lions in this country. Concerted effort
will be put forth to induce these immi-
grants to learn English and acquire II
knowledge of the government, insti-
tutions and ideals of the United
States. Americas part in the war and
the obligations of an immigrant TO the
country during the war, officials Of the
bureau believe should be made clear
TO all those attending evening school.
10 give this information will be an inn
portant phase of the war Americaniza-
ton plan.

Military Salute Is Traced
Back to Days Of ChivaIry.

The military salute had a curl
Gus origin, II the tradition
brought to light by officers of
Uncle Sans marine corps may
be believed. The navy soldiers
say that the salute originated in
the days Of the tournament, at
which queen of beauty was
chosen to preside. The knights
and their esquires and all who
took part in the tourney, on pre-
senting themselves before the
queen, lifted each one a hand
level with the brows as though
dazzled by the light of her pres
ence.
Although its significance has
been forgotten that same salute
is now used by military men in
recognition of n superior rank,
the marine officers say.

Fruits and Vegetables

Pears have eased off a little with
the waning of the season and are now
offered at $1.75 and $500.
Cranberries have been boosted $500
per barrel, with quotations at $1,000
per barrel and $3.50 per box.
Irish spuds still hold at $1.75 per
cwt. and from the present outlook will
hold at that figure for some time.
Sweets have weakened little and
are now quoting at $3.50 and 1915.
Celery has firmed up a little and is
now quoted at 65c and $1.O0 per dozen
punches.
The quotations on hot house cucum-

in market and offered at $500 per doz.
Grain, Flour and Feed.
Wheat-There is not much new in
the wheat trade since last report. The
movement seems to be all that can be
expected due to congestion at terminal
points and lack of transportation. The
producers apparently are coming to
realize that the system and prices fixed
by the government are to stand and
that they might just as well let go
without any further objections.

The proclamation orders registration
as follows.
"All alien enemies are hereby re-
Quired to register at such times and
places and in such manner as may be
fired by the attorney general of the
United States, and the attorney gen
eral is hereby authorized and directed
to provide as speedily as may be prac-
teal for registration OF all alien enc

ton cards to alien enemies and to
make and declare such rules and regu-
lations as he may deem necessary for
effecting such registration.
"All alien enemies and all other per-
sons are hereby required to comply
with such rules and regulations; and
the attorney general, in carrying out
such registration, is hereby authorized
to utilize such agents, agencies, Off
GERS and departments of the United
States and of the several territories,
dependencies and municipalities there
of, and of the District of Columbia, as
he may select for the purpose, and all
such agents, agencies, officers and de-
partments are hereby granted full au-
thority for all acts done by them in
the execution of this regulation when
acting by the direction of the attorney
general, and after the date fixed by
teh attorney general for such registra-
ton no enemy alien shall be found
within the limits of the United States,

Provisions.
Butter-Local market still holds

creamery in spite of the assertion that
the oleo business has increased by
leaps and bounds
Eggs-Fresh eggs still hold at rec
ord high prices and receipts very linn

level as for several week, but reports
from Chicago indicate that declines
that may yet affect other points.
Fresh Meats-There is practically
no change in the fresh meat situation
over last week, quotations holding at
the same level. Receipts of cattle are
sufficient for all requirements and
while hogs are not as plentiful as last
year at this time, there is enough COM
ing to hand to cover current needs.
Poultry-Broilers are little easier
this week while geese have firmed up
bit. Reports indicate that there will
be plenty of turkeys to cover Thanks
giving requirements and that the quo
tations of 22c and 23c live weight are
only trifle above those of year ago.
Lard and Cured Meats-Bacon holds
steady at quotations noted for the past
few weeks while some lines of hams
are little firmer. Lard still holds at
the same level as last week.

The light supply Of horses offered
this week has met with good general
call and prices have ruled strong
when compared with the close last
week. Stalls are pretty well emptied
now and it looks like one of the best
clearances made in some time will be
effected before the close of the week.
Orders were large each day and the
moderate run was soon picked up at
the prices. Shippers were principal
buyers each day, and when the proper
horses were available they willingly
gave the prices. Army horses are form
ing only small portion of the arri-
walls at present, and while the inspec-
ton is limited, the offerings are being
cleared.
Receipts for the first four days OF
the week total about 800 head, against
