tary courtesies Of civilization. He
was expected to be q good neighbor,
not meddlesome. but friendly. helpful
and ready to cooperate on occasion.
Basic Factors Still Stand.
The war has not in any wise or
in any degree set aside these basic
factors Of Americanism. It has add
ed the immediate and overshadowing
requirement Of patriotism.
The Spanish war stimulated Ameri-
can patriotism. It also provoked re-
actions against 1T, inasmuch as our
behavior was not approved by every
body, and it offered opportunity to
such as were apprehenstve that we
were about to become imperialistic
to deprecate appeals to national feel
ing. The movement toward non-pa-
triotism was subsequently reinforced
by the multiplication Of anarchistic
elements in our population and by an
increasingly bold anarchistic propa-
ganda.
The war has clarified much think
ing, and the patriotism that was only
latent not extinguished. will not for
some time again be openly called In
question by any considerable number
Of responsible Americans. Most Of US
now expect and we shall continue to
expect the American to be unequivo-
cally patriotic. Whether he was born
here, or brought here, or came here
Of his own volition. we expect him to
understand that all citizens of the
United States are sharers in COM
mon opportunities. common perils and
common destinies. and that we look
upon the man who is willing to take
assuming his share of our common
responsibility or doing his part of
our common work as human OBJ
ject that it is impossible to respect,
and who may as well expect scant
consideration.
1t is safe then to say that a large
majority of US at the present mo-
produces Americans whose patriot
ism. good citizenship. neighborliness,
decency. self-reliance and efficiency
are outstanding.
Know What We Want.
And this agreement upon the sub
stantial essentials of good American
ism is supplemented. fortunately, by
a measure of agreement upon the ex-
pedient ways of selecting and foster
ing them. We share certain common
sense notions as to how Americans
exhibiting desirable qualities have
been hitherto and can now and always
be reared. We know something. that
is, about the Americanism that we
want on the side Of it's methods as
well as on the side Of its aims.
We have tried various experiments
in patriotism and we have arrived at
minimum requirements which are ir-
reducible. The American patriot may
admire as many other nations and
governments as he likes and he may
believe that a millennium is On the
way, wherein the lambs of gentleness
shall lie unharmed outside the Jaws
Of the lions Of war. but be these
things as they may. he must yield an

T was our entrance into tne
world war that brought Ameri-
canism to the front line OF ma
tional problems in the onlteo
States. For a full generation pe1ore
1914. the increase of our alien popu-
lation and the obvious incomplete
ness of it's assimilation had worried
sone Of us and mildly interested more
Of us. The war revealed such possi-
bilities of danger in alienism tnat
the most Indifferent among US be-
came alive to the necessity of Ameri-
canization.
Under such circumstances Ameri-
canism was by most Of us identihed
with patriotism and perhaps not
much else. Now we look into the fu-
| ture with a wider vision and an en-
kindled Imagination. We realize that
the problem of Americanization pre-
supposes a more or less definite no
tion of Americanism and that sooner
or later it forces us to try to answer
the question What Americanism do
we want?"
| Ninety out of hundred individ-
uaIs encountered at random to whom
we might put this question would

basic elements of excellence in
American character. These we shall
continue to demand.
Efficiency a First Demand.
In the years Immediately preceding
the war the outstanding demand was fol
efficiency. We expected the American
to be good for something" At the
least, we said, he must be able to
look out for himself, to earn his way
! and be diligent, to bring up his chill
dren to look out for themselves and
| to earn their way. Also we expected

more Americans would have agreed
upon this sturdy trait of Americanism
| than upon any other one. not except
| ing patriotism, for we have among
| us, unhappily, both pacifsts and in
ternationalists.
| The insistence upon individual
adequacy and efficiency had been
Strengthening, but not to the entire
neglect Of other requirements. The
rapid growth of our towns, and cities
had forced upon our attention the
difficulties and the shortcomings OF
municipal administration. and the ne
cessity of fostering a collective civic
responsibility. We had, therefore
begun to expect the good American
to be an alert citizen interested in
his village. town or city, believing
| in it and ever ready to help maintain
a lawful end efficient administration
