worthless from both physical and a
military standpoint. Physical train

LOVE OF LIBERTY BINDS POLES
TO DEFEND THE UNITED
STATES
(By ReQuest)

Minneapolis News: The Americans
of Polish descent have fastened to as
sure the president of their support.
America need have no anxiety as to
the loyalty of her citizens Of Polish
birth or extraction.
Here's how the Tygodnik Polski, a
Polish weekly with its headquarters at
424 E. 9th st., New York City, ex-
presses the loyalty editorially:
"Poles when not engaged in battle
for their own freedom, have been she'd
ding blood for the principle Of free
dom in every other part Of the globe,
but be It to their honor that they have
never battled for q cause which was
not Just. Distinguished were their
services rendered America in every
conflict from the days OF the Revolu-
ton to the present. Whole regiments
fought in the Civil war, and today the
four and a half million citizens Of our
race by birth or extraction, resident in
America, ere well represented in its
army and navy-among the first slain
in Mexico were Polish sailor boys.
"The average American does not un-
derstand Poland's position-we are
neither Austrians, Russians nor Ger
mans-we are Poles, striving as ma
ton for complete freedom.
"Poles have every reason to be
grateful to America for the asylum it
has furnished them from foreign op-
preston and now even more grateful
for the sympathetic reference to Po-
land by it's great president in his ad-
dress to the senate.
"Poles will ever be loyal to Ameri-
ca and especially at this time can Am
erica depend upon them. True to their
traditions they will rally to its flag.
They are born soldiers, great num-
beers have had military training in the
old country and will offer their SER
vices to their adopted country when
needed. -.
eve notice anxiety on the part Of
manufacturers employing foreign Ia
Dor in their plants. We say to them:
If you employ Polish labor, that is your
best insurance. And to sucn Polish
employees we might say that they
should bear in mind that there are
other ways of being Of service to their
adopted county besides taking up arms
in its defense. 49,.
:. 4tTens Of thousands of you are2en-
gagged in manufacture Of every descrip-
tion. Political fanatics, with inter
ests inimical to America will seek to
cripple it's industries by plot and con-
spiracy; it is your duty to be watch
full, keep your eyes open and ears to
the ground; should you hear or have
reason to suspect anything wrong, i'm.
mediately but carefully, inform your
superiors OR the government authori-
ties. Guard the plant as If it were
your own--and this applies to every
line of industry and endeavor. ;
"Thus you will show your loyalty
and best serve the interest Of your
fatherland.
edo not forget you are Poles-not
Austrians, not Germans nor Russians,
and above all, properly register your
selves as such when applying for po-
sitions. Many Poles are still interned
in Canada as Germans or Austrians be-
cause of improper registration.
"Remember also that America g
cause is the cause of freedom and free
dom is the cause Of Poland. "-Free
