The Fayette falcon. (Somerville, Tenn.) 190?-current, 1918-09-27

Former Governor Durbin Of Indiana
came TO Washington and put spoke
In the Roosevelt presidential wheel
which was revolving very rapidly up
to that time. Durbln had conference
with number Of Republican senators
and representatives and he told them
very frankly that Roosevelt would not
do. II is supposed that he talked to
men who sympathlzed with his views.
Durbin, suggested that either Senator
WeekssOf Massachusetts or Governor
Lowden of Illinois would make an ae-
ceptable candidate and thought they
would poll the full Republican
strength. Speaking of Roosevelt, he
said: 'If Roosevelt should run against
President Wilson he would be the
worst beaten man that ever was a
candidate for the presidency" OF
course Durbin would modify that
somewhat, but II is supposed that he
meant since the Republican party was
organized. He probably failed to recol-
lect that In 1912 Taft received only
eight electoral votes. 1t is yet a little
too early to have presidential booms
get we'll under way.
The Fayette falcon. (Somerville, Tenn.) 190?-current, 1918-09-27

The war department has finally
found way to use conscientious OBJ
jectors." These directors are drafted
men whose religious beliefs are along
the line of peace-at-any-price. Ever
since the first draft army officials have
been puzzllng over the proper way to
handle men who honestly believe that
all war is wrong. These men refused
to drill or carry rifle or do anything
calculated to st them for killing Huns.
Doing chores around the camp, peellng
potatoes and the like, was given O
trial but didn't work. There were
plenty Of soldiers available for doing
that work in their spare time. A
method has now been devised by which
directors are furloughed and placed on
farms as farm laborers. They remain
under control of the cantonment COM
manders and II not actually fighting
are doing the next best thing.
The new chairman OF the Republican
congressional campaign committee is
man of number Of titles. Before
he came to congress he was Professor
Tess; then he became Congressman
Tess; now he is Chairman Fess; but
he also has title which Is not often
used, which Is Farmer Fess. The Ohio
congressman Is one Of the most &C
complIshed scholars in the house of
representatives. He Is also particu-
larly well Informed on foreign relations
and on all other subjects Of national
Importance. On this account he Is al i
ways listened to attentively when he
addresses the house. BE also does
farm work when he gets time.
All sorts of questions are asked In
the consideration of the water power
bill. For instance, quite a number Of
men are very anxious to know wheth-
er we are going to destroy Niagara
falls. Niagara rapids. and the rapids
Of the St. Lawrence river. Congress-
man Humphreys Of Mississippi was
very much exercised over these Ques-
lions, more so than New York con-
gressmen. Congressman Dempsey of
New York made a rather satIrical re-
mark about Humphreys coming all the
way from the Gulf Of Mexico to look
after the interests Of New York and
other Western border states. Many
New Workers think the value OF tia
rapids in the matter OF scenic beauty
can be improved and the power Of that
water also used for commercial pur,
poses.

LONDON, Dec. 2 (By Mail).-The war
has taught lesson TO the clergyman
as well as TO the layman.
Those priests and parsons who
donned khaki and went "over there"
10 tend their flock have learnt how best
10 influence the men; one padre, for In
stance, found Il was no use e8hOrtlng
them to "come and pray" so Instead
he stuck notice outside his door say
ing "Come In and risk meeting the
PADRE" and they came.
Padres frequently were seen wander
Ing round the camps with a Bible In
one hand and box OF clgarets in the
other, for they learned that Tommy,
In his extremity asked, not for prayers,
but for smoke and companlonship
Armed with the necessary smoke" II
became easy TO give Tommy the right
kind of companonshlp.
Hundreds OF men who, before the
war, had no good word TO speak for
clergymen, are now enthusiastic In their
praise Of the padres, whom they realize
TO be men like themselves-men with
a sense Of humor, Of patriotism and OF
courage.

New EuSfTe o. Delaware
Under Service Citizens

controlled by making our State sum-
cleptly attractive to the steady and efil-
Client workmen to permanently locate
here and to bring their friends and
neighbors because OF the opportunities
the State OF Delaware VIII offer.
1.-THE labor agents must understand
that Delaware Is not the market for
drlfters, but win only take the best
type Of foreign-born workmen and their
families, and for that they shall be
given what our Declaration OF lnde-
pendence guarantees TO all our people
life, liberty, and the pursuit Of hap
plness; IN other words, they must be
Americanized.
"There are IN Delaawre about 23oOO
forelgn-born people, or more than ten
per cent OF the total population. Very
little has been done TO attach these
people 10 this community. They need,
after employment, houses TO live In and
chance TO learn English. | understand
there is not single public educational
agency In the State TO teach them the
English language.
"The Service Citizens is asking you
TO assist the State, not merely by sup
porting Its State program as indivld-
uals, but also by making II known In a
very practical way that the English
language Will be taught inside your own
Industrial plant. This is the real pur-
pose OF this conference.
"And true Amerlcanlzatlon must not
be an Isolated thing, affecting only In
dustry, or industry and education alone,
but as a training In the very ideals OF
our national life"
Secretary Lane Sends Regrets.
A telegram was read from Secretary
OF the Interior Franklin K. Lane, ex-
pressing regret that he could not ac-
cept Mr.. dupont invitation to the con-
ference, as he had found congestion
OF work TO be attended to upon his re-
cent return to Washington. He prom
ised 10 come To Wilmington at later
date. In his place. a talk was given
by Elliott d. Smith, OF Washington,
Chief OF State Councils, Council OF Ma
tlonal Defense. Mr. Smith said In part.
Nearly every department connected
with the war machinery has found II
necessary to create special divisions TO
asslmllate the foreigners In their
midst. The problem has been the same
In all the departments, first to reach
the foreigners, and secondly. TO prevent
their being reached by agencies ini-
mlcal TO the government. We could not
put before the foreigners the Ideals
and objects for which this country was
flghtlng and the very fact that they
were insulated by lack OF knowledge OF
English from the government made
them a prey TO the agents Of enemy
countries.
"Co-ordnated action OF all concerns
Interested Is an essential OF an Ameri-
oanizatlon program. We should pro-

our Ideas 30 as TO really become ma
turallzed
"The fundamental attitude In this
work must be taken; II Is not welfare
work but give and take affair. The
foreigner must understand that some
thing is expected from him in return
by America. The AmericanlzatIon pro-
gram begun by the Federal Govern
ment through the State Councils Of De-
Tense as a war emergency Is proving
a well-rounded peace time American
izatlon agency.
1T is vital to the federal government
that the States and local communities
carry out the Amerlcanlzallon program.
The State cannot carry II out unless
Industry backs II up. The emergency
Is greater now than before, because
national feeling Is at its height, and no
foreigner can have the neutrality he
had before the war.

with countries where the Industrial up
