CONSIDER OUR WAYS.

The feeling of hostility to the for
lead the American people to adopt
wrong methods IN efforts to correct con
ditions. 1t is quite possible our zeal
leads us to do injustice to the foreign
element, to lay at their door charges OF
disloyalty and revolutionary thoughts
that do not exist While we believe the
and other radicals are largely held by
aliens in this country and that they.arei
responsible for the unrest and radical
sm that affiicts us it cannot be wholly
laid at their door. The leaders. in the
most radical efforts of labor during the
past six months have been American
citizens and it is apparent that the
most dangerous Reds in this country
have had the financial support of veal
thy Americans in spreading their rev
dictionary doctrines. Therefore we
should carefully sift out the truth of
the matter before condemning for
eigners as class. 1t is said by one
thoroughly acquainted with the immi-
grants to this country that if the i'm
migrant is given half chance he is
loyal to our political institutions and to
our industry.
The discovery of some radical and
dangerous persons in the foreign ele
rents of this country has led to gen
eral demand for the deportation of such
characters and the introduction of laws
forbidding all immigration for a pc
-iod, also laws compelling immigrants
70 take out citizenship papers within
| a given time and to compel them to
earn and speak the American language.
| The desirability of citizenship and use
| and understanding of the American
language is apparent but people should
carefully consider the effects of com
pulsion before adopting it. History
teaches Us that compulsory use of any
tongue or compulsory citizenship in
any country has proven unsatisfactory
| Germany has forbidden the use Of the
| Polish language in conquered Poland
enacted strict regulations in Alsace-
| Lorraine and in other conquered terri
tory; but in every case the people re-
fused to become Germanized in speech
or loyalty. Compulsory Americaniza
tion gives no promise of success.
4 Deportation of persons convicted OF
revolutionary aims seem desirable. II
they have only hostile and destructive
purposes against this government they
should not ask its protection and ben
efts. But this is not likely to advance
Americanism to a great degree. Loyal
ty is not the product of eompulson. II
IS more likely to develop among immi
grants "with half chance thar

If you happen to be one of that large
and increasing body of human beings
who "have nothing to be thankful for,
says the Fitchburg Sentinel, it is a
sure sign that you've been enjoying
prosperity quite awhile. Also it is in
dicative of the fact that you have been
viewing with longing eyes something
you haven't got and somebody else has.
Doubtless all of us would have a larger
share of thankfulness sn our hearts and
minds if we spent less time contemplat-
ing the larger possessions of some and
turned our attention to those who have
less than we.
