many races Of which America is COM
posed through the Home Service,
which. through its 10000 committees
Is looking after the welfare of the sol
diers' families ia every corner Of the
country. America has always been
called the Melting Pot. and truly. bur
the process has been slow. The war
has accelerated 10. The Indians of the
west. the negroes of the south. the ltal

dustrial centers, the MexIcans of the
Southwest, Armenians and Swedes and
Norwegians and Japanese and IrelaId-

war because IL was Americas war and,
they are Americans
That they feel this Is patent To- those
men, Witness the Italian. who in the

Of his fellows TO take tire oath Of al,

In front of him To his lips. 4 group OF
