Security League Head
Defends DR.. Claxton

s. Stanwocd Menken, president of
the National Security League, yester-
day wrote to O. G. GetzenDanner, of
$50 Park Avenue, defending DR.. Phi
lander ?. Claxton, United States Com
missioner of Education, from charges
Of disloyalty made by DR.. William T.
Hornaday. Mr.. Mcnken declared,
however. that he did not agree with
DR.. C!axton as to the teaching of Ger
man in schools. In his letter he says:
"While Dr.. Hornaday has been one
Of the most fearless and aggressive
advocates Of preparedness and is
splendid patriot, his earncstncss
sometimes carries him into extreme
statements, and I think this is the
case in regard to his aspersions on
DR.. Claxton
"Before DR.. Claxton was invited to
become member of the Committee Of
Patriotism Through Education his
views were we'll known, and he was
asked to Join because he has through
his official position and personally
shown the broadest sympathy with
our general work. and I believe that.
while we may differ with him some
what on the teaching of German, his
Amcricanlsm is Of the most sterling
type.
ne LH1IikS LnaL herman should be
taught to some people in some schools.
We in the league think this is time
TO establish common language and
that the way to do this is to eliminate
the speaking and teaching of German
in the schools except as an elective
in the college and that when taught
in the colleges the instructors should
be men Of unquestioncd loyalty. Now
is the time when the nation should
gain the benefit Of Il common ground
Of linguistic unity.
owe must not forget that it is part
Of preparedness to reckon with the
fact that we must fight Germany com
mercally when the war is over and
that some knowledge Of German is nee
cssary for use to understand their
schemes ut all times.
"My interest in the teaching of Ger
man is purely that Of protection from
a commercial and military point of
view"
