TRUE AMERICANISM

I'VE may Just a. well definitely face the
fact that no man can ever be good Amer
lean, no man can ever be really flrst-ciass
citizen OF the United States. unless he b an
American nd nothing else. Recent events
have shown rs that the effort 10 combine
loyalty to this land with loyalty to any other
can only result in weakening the loyalty to
this country. Washington and Lincoln were
Of English descent, but they were not Eng
hsh-Americans. Their loyalty was updiyid-
eddy and whole-heartedly, 70 tie United
States and TO all Of the people Of the Unfbea
States in every part thereof. In international
relations they judged England precisely .
they Judged all other nations; that Is, in any
gwen crisis they Judged every foreign nation
exactly IN accordance with its conduct in
that crisis: they were As incapable of The
meanness Of unreasoning malice and hatred
toward any particular nation as of meanness
q trucking to ii and making its interests
superior to our own. They set the standard
Of Americansm which all of our citizens
should follow in their relations with one an
other. in their attitude toward their own
country. and in their attitude toward eech
and all foreign nations"
