Americas Independence

The value of every American citi-
zea 10 his country is in direct proper
ticQ 10 h;G reverence for independ-
ence, not an Individual independence
which tlespasses upor he rights of
oilers, causing unrest an dissatisfac-
tion, out an independence which clear
ly recognizes the lights of all.
Those who have injured our coun-
try most can be divided into two
classes, the persons who have believ-
ed in tyranny rather than in indepen-
dence, and those misguided ones who
have sought freedom only for certain
classes or groups of individuals. On
the other hand, those who have done
most for the United States have al
ways had before them the ideal of in
dependence. The Pilgrim Fathers,
setting forth across an unknow sea,
were guided by the star of freedom to
the shores of America. In the new
continent the star grew brighter and
brighter, until it's effMgence culmin-
ated in declaration, the Declaration
of Independence.
1t might seem that now the full
glory of independence was revealed;
that nothing more could be desired.
And yet, as the years have passed,
the reverence of the American citi-
zen for freedom has broadened and
expanded.
In 1865 it took outward form in
the Emancipation Proclamation. And
now this ideal, this guiding star of all
officials, soldiers, and civilians of the
United States, includes independence
not only for the American citizen, his
family, his neighbors, and hisc ooun-
trymen, but independence for every
creature upon the earth, no matter
what the nationality, rec, or mental
condition of that creature.
The ideal embodied in the Declara-
ton of Independence grew to magni-
fcient proportions during the past
war, nd now, on the first peaceful
Fourth Of July for seven years, the
world is looking to America to bring
justice and independence to the en-
tire world.

In excess of 100 miles an hour, was
announced to the second Pan American
Aeronautical Congress here by Ralph

who won the international balloon race

Mr.. Upson, who has just returned

the largest "blimp" of the United States
navy has hydrogen capacity of only
100000 cubic feet.
Since 1911 the improvements worked
out in the dirigible industry have been
more than 1000 per cent, he said.

Yesterday afternoon from Boston. Lady

Boy Scouts are now we'll organized in

CALLS j. 5. DEREL|CT
IN VALU|NG OYSTER
Failure to Include it in Food
Conservation Program criti-
r cized by Grower
SUBSTITUTE FOR N EAT 7

Atlantic City, May 13.-Declaring
that the oyster was not yet appreciated
at its full value ms food commodity
in the home. William II. Killian. Balti
more, president of the Oyster Growers
and Dealers Association of North
America, criticized the government for
its failure to specify the well known
bivalve, when advising the public to
substitute fish for meat, at the open
ing session of the eleventh annual con
vention of that organization at the st.
Charles Hotel this morning.
''It is fact that the consuming
public will pay the price for its re-
Quirement of meats with greater will
ingness than it will pay high prices for
foods that in themselves are excellent
substitutes, but which are not by them =
selves considered to be as essential, I"
said Mr.. Killian, continuing his annual
address.
Sea foods generally are the logi
cal substitution for meats and the use
of fish has been urged by the govern l.
mcrt with the result that an enormous
increase in demand has occurred which
has carried with it likewise enormous
increase in prices.
1T has seemed at times unaccount-
able to us that oysters should not have
shared in the increased demand enjoyed
by fish. There are many reasons why
they should be. and to us there is every
reason why they should be, and the
only reason why they did not was prob
ably the governments failure to specify
them.
when the winning of the war had
been accomplished, attention was imme
diately transferred to the problem of
reconstruction of our industries, but
reconstruction in the oyster industry
was not new endeavor, and for the
oyster industry at least the war did not
begin in 1917, but in 1908, when the
first application of the federal food law
Of 1906 put the oyster industry on the
defensive. 1t was the mobilization of
its forces at that time that resulted
in the organization of this association,
which has been carrying on a desultory
warfare of defense almost continuously
ever since"

expressed belief today that with cOnSC-
quent conferences this week the Re-
publicans would be ready to proceed
with organization when the Senate con-
yenes Monday.
Some of the leaders Of the progressive
group said today that if the fight against
Senator Pcnrose were carried to the
Senate floor they believed they could
muster enough votes to prevent his
election and that. if necessary, the
craftsmanship of the committee would
be left vacant. Several progressive
senators were said to favor Senator
Smoot, of Utah. for the appropriations
3committee chairmanship. leaving Sena
tor Warren to accept thP chairmanship
