NATIONWIDE
FIGHT AGAINST
GERMAN PAPERS
National Security League Starts
Crusade for Their Elimination,
Together With the Teach
ing of German.

A vigorous campaign to bring about
the elimination Of the teaching Of Ger
man in the public schools of the coun-
try and to obtain the discontinuance
of the publication of newspapers print
ed In German has been launched by
the National Security League. To or
ganize it's effort for these ends the
League has formed a Committee on
Foreign Language and Foreign Press,
which will carry the fight into every
nook and corner Of the United States.
The Committee Is composed of Col.
Charles Z. Lydecker, member Of the
Board Of Trustees of the College Of
the City of New York and Chairman
Of the National Security Leagues
Board Of Directors; Edward II. Clark,
Treasurer Of the Security League |;
Ernest G. Brown, well known New
York editor and publisher, and DR..
Robert M. McElroy, Educational direc-
tor of the National Security League
under leave of absence from Princeton
University, where he is head Of the
Department Of History and Politics.
Stop Advertising.
The principal basis Of the Commit.
tees campaign against German news
papers will be the obtaining of the dis.
continuance Of advertising in them.
Col. Lydecker's committee has laid
the following plan of campaign before
the Chairmen and Secretaries Of all
the. 2S1 branches of the Security
League:
There is no immediate need to
have laws enacted to suppress the
foreign language dailies. In towns
where there Is a strong patriotic senti.
ment a hostile minority should be per.
suaded by a clear and forceful expires.
sion of the views of the majority that
ours must be, from this time forward,
a one language nation.
"See Our Mistake"
IF a community will not support a
newsdealer who handles the daily pa.
pers printed In foreign tongues 1t can
thereby force him to deal only In Eng
fish language papers.
Recognizing a general willingness
to be patriotic anu the rapid acqui-
escence from many quarters to compel
the use of English dailies, we urge
reasonably active measures on the part
OF the branches Of the League. JUS
tice requires this, for the fault does
not lie wholly with the alien. We have
failed hitherto to provide the machin-
cry of education which the welding
process required. We have counte
nanced and ven encouraged the idea
OF preserving linguistic and racial
groups I'm our midst. At last we see
our mistake, and we must correct II as
speedily as justice will allow.
but we must not forget, and we
must not allow allen enemies to for
get, that this Is a time Of war. Quick
processes of producing unity are justi.
fed by the peril of those, institutions
which we hold In trust for all, human
ity.

"b) Discontinuance Of all adrertis-
ing In papers printed In the tongues OF

She was the first to become a
member of the Leagues National Ex-
ecutive Committee, and Is secretary Of
the Leagues Committee on Patriotism
Through Education.
Mrs. Preston's message to the wo-
men OF the country reads in full:
"ProcIaim Liberty"
proclaim Liberty throughout ALL
The LAND unto all the inhabitants
thereof
"These words were written about
149O years before Christ, as part Of
the Law of Holiness in the Book Of
Leviticus. Our fathers inscribed them
upon the Liberty Bell which called our
mighty nation into life.
To-day all the Inhabitants enjoy
liberty. the Jew and the Gentle, the
rich and the poor, the native and the
alien-born, the weak and the strong.I
The old Liberty Bell is silent, for its,
voice has been heard throughout all
the land
but Liberty Is not safe. 1t is men,
aced along the battle fronts Of many
nations, our W among them, and
America requires a new motto for her
old Bell: Proclaim liberty through.
out ALL LANDS unto all the inhab.I
itants thereof Until liberty is safel
in all lands, 1t can not be safe in our
own. Hence the task to which Amer.l
lea has r~everently and unselfshly ded.
icated herself.
"Make Motto Real"
"The Fathers Of this Republic, men
of many races, with a common love of
liberty, wrought into law our ancientl
motto, thus giving liberty a chance to
enlighten the world.
To-day we, their descendants, are
called upon to make real the new
motto, and thus to give liberty thel
u%ndisputed right to bless the world.
"This can be done but only after
heroic struggle and ~self-sacrifce. A
premature peace would mean failure.
1t would be only less disastrous than
complete defeat. Against all tempta-
lions to compromise the women Of
America should stand firm and united.
"Peace and Safety"
"victory means peace and safety
for our children; defeat means hui
initiation and practical servitude for
themj while a negotiated peace, with
the military machine of Prussia un-
broken. means that everything In their
lives must be subordinated to the task
of preparing for another war with
Germany We a win now If Amer.
lea can be held %steadfast and un-
swerving, and the women of America
can hold her steadfasts" -J

FEED FOE BY TUNNEL
German SmuggIers on Swiss

Chancs.

Basle.-Hunger Is the mother Of In
ventionsL German hunger invented a
great smuggling device which did q
booming business until discovered BY
customs officers. Some Germans, liv-
Ing In Baden, near the Swiss frontier,
built a pipe line across the frontier.
II ended In q house rented to q Ger
man family. What this family con-
sumed In the line Of food, clothing,
shoes, soap and other necessaries was
really astounding. However, these
people bought things In the open mar
ket, which is still possible In Switzer-
land, paid cash, never grumbled, no
matter how high the price and no
questions were asked.
One day recently two men were seen
digging In the ground near the 'front.'
Ter. Customs officials became suspi-
cious, and nosing around soon made
valuable discovery. The two men
were engaged In repairing the pipe
line, which had been used for snug
Cling. The machinery had become
clogged and an opening had to be made
to get at the seat Of the trouble.
The officials saw an opening had
been made into a spacious tunnel built
Of concrete. Inside the pipe were
long wires. These wires were wound
round spools at the end stations and
could be pulled either way. Goods,
such as meat, cheese, hams, shoes,
clothing. etc, were tied to the wire
and pulled across the border through
the subterranean channel.
The Swiss government Is now after
the slnugglers. The fiourishing "buA-
ness" Is killed.

TRACES KIN IN ARMY
Red Cross win Keep Relatives
Informed.
Bureau Win Get information Regard
Ing Men Wounded, Killed
or Mlsslno.

washington.-The American Red
Cross, through its bureau Of eommuni-
cation, issued a request to the rela-
lives Of soldiers who are In the Amer
lean expeditionary force, in which II
asks these relatives to make inquiries
regarding their kin who are In the
army through the Red Cross bureau
Of communication In Washington in
stead of, as Is the case In numerous
instances, Of communicating with
agencies or individuals In Europe. The
request was issued In the name OF
Harvey ID. Gibson, the American Red
Cross commissioner In France.
Mr.. Gibson points out the fact that
In a majority Of cases such inquiries
are merely turned over by the individ-
ual or agency to the Red Cross, which
has charge Of such communication with
soldiers relatives, and which has de-
veloped special facilities for obtaining
information about those reported
killed, wounded. or missing. and those
from whom letters have not been re-
ceived. Congestion Of cables and
loss Of time and energy are also ocs
casioned by making the request other
than through the Red Cross. 1t has
been known that as many as four sep
arate requests have been received
about the same men by different In
situations.
Edward n. Day, acting director OF
the bureau Of communication, said:
"The function Of this bureau Is to
give relatives all possible information
which will lessen anxiety. Every In
quiry Is handled With full realization
that a prompt and full reply Is Of seri-
Gus moment to the happiness, peace OF
mind, and not infreQuently to the
health Of the relatives. By writing to

ton q small American nag. the gift Of

rounded and destroyed a machine-gun
post hidden among tree trunks Just
inside the wood. As they went on af.

geant brandished the little flag over
his head and shouted, "Come on, fel-
lows; there's another one" Just ahead
some Australians were fighting around
q shallow pit In which were i've Prus-
SLAMS and a machine gun. Two or
three Chicago boys dashed up with
their bayonets poised. One of them lit
orally fell on a big Rhinelander who
was about to throw q bomb and sent
him sprawling with q cracked skull,
