Out of tho Past.
{ (NeW York Sun)

Senator Gore supplies to the pub lie sensation akin to that which q citizen feels when he discovers a five dollar bill in last years waistcoat The Oklahoman has disinterred liy- ing. from It's archival tomb an amend ment to the constitution which con- gress presented to the States in 1910 and which thc States have not rati- fled. It is this:
 "lt tny citizen of the United States shall accept, claim, receive or retain any title of nobility or honor, or shall without tho consent of congress- ac- cept and retain any present, pension. office or cmOlulnent Of any kind what ever from any emperor, king, prince or foreign power, such person shall cease to be a. citizen of the United States and shall be incapable of hold ing any office of trust or profit under them or either of thCm.'
 This proposed amendment was de- signed to be a rigorous substitute for that paragraph of the ninth section of article l., which provides that no cit izcn holding any Federal office of profit or trust shall, without the con sent of the congress- "accept of any present emolument. office or title of any kind whatever from any king, prince or foreign state.'
 As Senator Gore says, the amend ment was intended to put teeth in the constitution, Congress realizing that other congresses might be weak. The congress of 1S09-1S1O laid the new law before the people; and there it is yet, unaccepted and forgotten, but still pulsating.
 We have to confess to Senator Gore, wno remarks that the amend , ment failed of ratification by one state that New York was one of the guilty. She and naughty little Rhode

HUNGARIANS SATISFIED.
Pleased to Receive Diplomatic Mission
 From Entente.

Budapest, April ) (By the Assoclat- cd Press. )-The Hungarian govern ment has proposed to Gen. Jan Chris tian Shuts, who was sent here by the peace conference at Paris, that con- ferences be held at Vienna or Prague between representatives of Czecho- Slovakia, Rumania, German-Austrla' Hungary and Jugo-SIavia regarding boundries and economy questions.
 Bela Kun, the Hungarian foreign minister, in discussing the situation with the Associated Press today said:
 "This is the first time the Entente has sent us d diplomatic mission. This is proof that the Soviet govern ment is tho strongest regiment since the November violation. There is not the least sign that the Entente wishes to undertake military operations against us. Gen. Shuts has been re- ceived in friendly spirit and prop osition for a conference concerning boundaries has been submitted 10 him.

THE WAR IS OVER.

Can Germany renew the War? Not the figures published by Gen ,ral Earch are correct
 According to the estimate of the
 mericaA Chief of Staff, based on re- prts received from Allied sources, he Central Powers are reduced to |125, 900 men aud Germany, the lead F. is down to 82O,OOO.
 When hostilities ceased on Noyem- er Il, 1918, the estimated strength r the Central Powers was 7,63O,OOO hd to offset this, Marshal Foch had
 nder his direction or at his call, 16,- b0,0O0. These figures may help to kplain why Germany was so anxious discuss peace terms. Outnum- bred two to one the position of the |entral Powers was hopeless and pthing could have been gained by bntinuing the war. The cnemy's re- grves were exhausted while the AL ses' reserves, thanks to America, Aill numbered millions.
 For the past few months ears in sllied countries have been treated to treats from Germany that she will snew warfare if the peace terms are alrsh. How empty these boasts are, 8'c revealed for the first time by Gen s'al March's figures. These become ;en more significant when taken in pnjunction with the estimate that he Allied strength is still 1886, 900. The war is over.

AMERICANISN IS
 MINISTER'S THEME
Rev, MiSsjrian ExpoundS Benefits
 in This City

Rev. G. NJ. Missirian. speaking to his congregation last evening delivered a talk on N'""ri~anism which is 10 the point m u great many ways. Ad Vocating the "personal touch" in re- lauons with the foreign born he de- scribed what might well be done Touching uI on the night school and social center system n vogue in this city he spoke of the good it is doing and the grea ter good II may do His talk was as follows:
 .Amcricanization. Why and How:
 The word AmcricaniZatiOn has been frequently used of late. II is s pres cnt-daV dominant subject for the lead CTS and the speakers of large com nunitiCS, in particular where sO-callCd foreigners pr immigrants abound in mum brrS. BNt the fact and tho truth for which the word stands, is as old as tho republic itself Arnericaniza- ton has been in continuous process from the first days when tho carly Pilgrim fathers welcomed and save shelter 10 all freedom loving peoples, until the very present time. And it is by this wonderful increasing fact, that America has made a place of leadership for herself among the na- tiOns of the world.
 What is Americuniza;ion? II is the adoption ami the aSsimilaton of the highest and best ideals Of America consciously and mcor%cousN by all tho peoples who live within the pro- lection of this great republic. The ideals Of America can be summed up in freedom and democracy, justice and righteousness. The presidents may come and go, the party politics may shift from one to another, but the soul of America remains tho same through the years.
 Soul of Americans.
 Of course there arc as many Amer jeans in this country, as there arc cit izens, whether native porn or foreign. But the soul of America is repre- scented only in these citizens. who have adopted the ideals of the re- public, and are loyal to them even to death.
 Now why this general and devoted movement for Americanization? Be cause America wishes to know who arc on the side of freedom and de- mOcracN as she understands them. The war was q great revelation to America, to discover how deeply and efficiently the Ann eriCanizatiOn had worked through in the lives of even those late coming citizens The Amer iCan flag called to our foreign born youth, as well as native born, and elOquontly the casualty lists showed how hcroically they rt tSpondcd in the day of need. Yet insistcntly the shameful question rises: Are they elements of strength or of division

BACK TO THE ROAD.

 road without an end Has called it's children back again
 from out the bloody fray. The task we had to do is done. The war we had to win is won, With faces to the setting sun We're tramping on our way. Tho white stars, the bright stars, the
 velvet sky above,
 And oh, the endless joy Of life that's
 in the earth beneath. The bird that thrills the dusk at eve With throbbing notes of pain that
 grieve,
 But gladden. ere the echoes leave The hedgerow and the heath. The few loves, the true loves. we
 know are waiting still. We have a rendezvous with some
 whose lips long since we kissed, And over hill and moor and plain, Through golden sunshine, silver rain, We go to find our own again, Who keep the faithful tryst. The old trail, the bold trail that ever
 lures us On
 The days and nights of beauty in
 the sky the sea and sod The life of love and joy and song The slzy-roofcd home where we be-
 long,
 The road that winds through right
 and wrong

Massachusetts schools.
Springfield RCpublican.)

The legislative hearing Tuesday on recess committee served to emphaslze the two outstanding facts of the sltu2- tion These arc that Massa chusetts la far behind tho other states in pro- viding funds for school teaching ana supervision and that there are large communities in the state prepared to fight the measure best calculated to bring the state into line. Mu5sachu- setts is losing itS school teachers and will continue to lose them; many hundreds of teachers arc receiving barely d living wage or less, whereas if they are worth more they arc be- ing cheated, and if they are not worth moro their pupils arc being cheated. These two statements mado at the hearing tell the story,
 Massachusetts complaisancc has been pretty thoroughly shaken by the committees disclosures, rein forced by Tuesdays testimony, that the states schools H whole, m- stead of being prc-cmincnt, as many have supposed, arc d good ways be- low q reasonable minimum of quality judged by standards maintained in other states Of the north. The truth seems to be that we haven't known the facts, We have judged the states schools from it's exceptional examples, especially it's higher institutions in the most favured communities, ignor- ing the equally significant conditions in tho less favored communities.
 But the opponents of this bill Hp- pear to admit the facts-they can hardly escape thcm-whiIo insisting that the facts do not concern the state as such, to tho point of eNpCnd- ing money which would have tO be apportioncd among the several cities and towns. Education is a local mat ter, they say. If the state is to do anything about teachers and superin- tencents' salaries let it tell the poor paying towns 0 pay more. If these towns can pay tho going rate for streets. they can for schools Let them do so. an argument by the way, which could with equal effect be di- rectcd against the state highway pol icy.
 The basic fact should not be lost sight Of that the state in matters that concern it's safety and welfare and that of it's citizens is integral and su- premc. The education Nf it's children is one of these matters, and the posi- ton of Massa ch l|sCtts uS a gateway to European imm iGratiOn and q work shop of the nation COmpliCateS tho matter and increases it's importance. The fact that it's factory system tends to concentrate it's population in large centers docs not relieve the state. nor the large centers which are q part CT it. from attention to tho drained dis tricts which depend upon the state and upon which tho state depends Massachusetts is comm onWealtr not a loose federation of separate communities among which it's duties are distributed as "locaI matters
 ''The aid by states to cities and towns averages 15 per cent. annually throughout the country; but here in Massa chusetts the amount is but 1 per cent State aid is the practically universal policy of the states of the Union. There is no sufficient excuse for the position of this state, which cannot evade its responsibilities to it's children.
