Speakers Urge American Citizenship
Timely Addresses Mass Meeting Held Under Auspices of Young Mems Hebrew Association-Mayor Allyn L. Brown, E. J. Graham and Benjamin Evarts Heard by Large Gathering.
Lauds American Freedom.

Mr. Evarts told of the slavery which the Jewish people are under at present in Europe and how the Jewish people are serving in the trenches of Europe. The Jew will be the same in Europe after the war as before the war, said Mr. Evarts. I ask you all is not the liberty which you enjoy in America better than in any other country? If there was a meeting like this held in Russia, the Russians would think a revolution was being formed and would send us all to Siberia. I then ask you what are you going to do in re- turn for this great freedom which is given to you by these great American people?
 The speaker spoke on the average and standing of immigrants who come to this country relative to becoming citizens and he said that the Jewish people ranked fourth. He spoke on several European natives who have re- turned after saving money in this country. Continuing, MT. Evarts said we have no country to go to. We have just as much right in this country as our Christian neighbors We are all enjoying this great freedom and fiber ty. Why shouldn't we grasp it? The right to vote is worth thousands of dollars. We must grasp this oppor- tunity, for we want to be able to say: I am a Jew and an American citizen.
 The committee in charge comprised Abraham Curland, director. Benjamin Weinstein, Saul Alofsin and Nathan Blumenthal.
