is conclusive evidence on this point
from a Bismarck man:

THEY'VEG0TT0
QUIT KICKING
PEOPLE AROUND
Mrs. Harry Rhud Says That's
Not Way to Make Good
Americans of Them

They've got to quit kicking my peo-
pie around was the tenor of some
indignant remarks which Mrs Har-
ry Rhud OF Fargo had to make on her
return to this city from tour Of the
Cerman-Russ!a1 communities OF North
Dakota, which included Bentley, Burt,
Odessa. Hebron. Hettinger, New Salem
Glen Ullin and MandaI. Mrs. Rhud
spoke in her native tongue, having
been born a Russian, and she made
three and sometimes four addresses
daily, travelling long dista nces over.
land by automobile and wagon,
through weather which was not always
nice.
MY people are as loyal as any in
the state. They're all doing their
best, but these Americans who pride
themselves on having about 500 per
cent more patriotism than anyone else
have got to stop running down the
German-Russians and nagging at them
and picking at them and scolding
them. 1t would make anybody mad
and Mrs. Rhud's swapping black eyes
proved she was not exempt.
"Nine out of ten times when case
of sedition is reported in one Of these
Gernlan-Pussian communities it is
found due to some personal enmity
Many Of the speakers who go into
these communities put in their time
scolding the people for what they have
done Or what they haven't done. !
don't wonder that some Of these peo-
pie have become indignant and in
clined to, feel antagonistic. They've
come to believe that no matter how
much they do they'll be put down as
Russian-G ermans and pro.Germans,
and some of them are losing heart.
I'VE people here in North Dakota
should remember what Lieut.. McCluar
rie told US. It's harder for these peo-
ple to send their boys over to France
to fight their own blood than it is for
others of us. who are fighting with
our kinsman and not against them.
We've got~to be patient with these
Americans of German descent and to
remember that it means great deal
more for them to be patriotic now
than it does for us. No good is to be
accomplished by throwing stones at
them. Instead, let's help them, 49,.
make it easier for them. We need
them now, and We'll need them after
the war. I'm one of them, and know
how they feel about it, and I don't
blame them. ~ .. .z...
"And they are patriotic. in one lit.
tie community where everyone in the
district had subscribed to the first
and second liberty loan, and where
they were all ready to buy the Third !;
where they had paid literally into the

the knights OF Columbus fund, found
that every farmer had set aside for
the duration of the war one acre or
more for the Red Cross, and the ev-
ening l spoke there they took up a
really generous collection to help de-
fray my expenses. And that's only
sample of what they're doing every
where. They don't ask to be coddled,
