WAR RALLY At
POLI'S SUNDAY
BY ITALIANS

Bridgeport citizens of italian birth
or extraction are today discussing with
much interest the announcement OF
the Bridgeport War bureau that DR..
Roversi and Miss Amy Bernardy are
to speak at the patriotic war rally at
Polls theatre next Sunday afternoon.
They recognize in Dr. Roversi one of
the most fluent and inspiring speakers
in this country. Miss Bernardy they
know has recently returned from It
ally and that she speaks of first knowl-
edge.
In this connection it is interesting
to note that Miss Bernardy was one of
the speakers at the enthusiastic rally
in New Haven Monday night when
Woolsey hall was crowded by more
than 5000 persons. Brigadier General
Guglielmotti was one of the principal
speakers and Miss Bernardy the other.
Justice George W. Wheeler, chair
man of the executive committee of the
Bridgeport War bureau, has expressed
much satisfaction over the showing
made by the foreign-born citizens OF
Bridgeport, in the Liberty Loan drive.

ing q Nap on 4 Hillside During
Pickett's Charge.

In the campaigns of both Antietam
and Gettysburg was an officer in q
regiment of cavalry, a mere subor-
dinate, responsible only for obedience
to orders.
At Gettysburg July the division to
which we belonged occupied the high,
partly wooded ground on the right Of
the line, covering the enemy's flank
and rear. It was bright July day,
hot. and with white clouds slowly roll
Ing across the sky. Neither our lines
nor those of the enemy were visible
to us; and the sounds of battle were
hushed. Waiting for orders and for
action, we dismounted, out of regard
Tor our horses as well as for ourselves,
and sat or lay on the turf.
Injured to danger by contact long and
close and thoroughly fired in body and
overwrought in mind we listened for
the battle to begin; and shortly after
noon the artillery opened. We did not
know it, for We could see nothing in
that direction, but it covered the IA

!. 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 its effort for these ends the
League has formed q 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 E. 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 H. Clark,
Treasurer Of the Security League 4

The principal basis of the Commit

"See Our Mistake"
III community will not support q
newsdealer who handles the daily pa
pers printed in foreign tongues it can
thereby force him to deal only in Eng
lish language papers.
"Recognizing q general willingness
to be patriotic and the rapid acqui-
escence from many quarters to compel
the use Of English daiIies, 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 even encouraged the idea
OF preserving linguistic and racial
groups In our midst. AT last we see
our mistake, and we must correct it as
speedily as justice will allow.
But we must not forget, and we
must not allow alien enemies to for
get, that this is 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.
