The Lakeland evening telegram. (Lakeland, Fla.) 1911-1922, 1919-12-30

Why do we fertilize our groves and
then permit the plow to tear up the
surface roots, which are the feeding
roots? Usually we blame the fertil-
izer, cuss the weather, or blame the
cold, criticize the spraying or perhaps
fuss at the county agent, but we do
not stop to think what we did with
the pillow.
The Lakeland evening telegram. (Lakeland, Fla.) 1911-1922, 1919-12-30

The spraying of citrus with Bor-
deaux or Ammoniacial should be
avoided now, as the trees will most
likely start into growth, they should
be dorment or near that now.

goods could not be utilized for that
purpose except at a loss. 1t would
therefore be safe to regard the
British embargo as direct slap at
our commerce, slap that requires
retaliatory measures for our own
protection. Are we then to con-
tinue supplying raw materials ID
those who have placed our manu-
features under the ban? Are we
going to supply our comercial OPP
ponents with the means of shutting
us out of the markets of the world?
Certainly not. Under the circum-
stances our course is plain; we
must put the same energy into the
industries of peace that we put into
our war industries; we must speed
up our manufacturing and use all
our own raw materials; we must
have great merchant marine of
our own and our flag must become
"a familiar object in the harbors Of
the world. This should be our
answer to the British embargo, and
our duty to ourselves demands that
our answer be as complete as we
have indicated.

ON WRONG TRAIL.

At the numerous Lincoln day
banquets of the Republican party
the after dinner speakers united in
barrage attack on President Will
son as a boom for the next Repub-
lican Presidential candidate, and
many of the speakers would have
been jailed for treason if the same
anti-American remarks were made
some time back. James M. Beck,
the noted Republican leader, who
has just been honored by the Eng
lish Government with a title, led
the attack, saying that Woodrow
Wilson's foreign policy is a black
stain of dishonor upon the Ameri-
can people," and the President s
peace programme was the most in
famous thing done by any American
President in our history" Beck's
traitorous remarks brought down a
storm of criticism on his head and
the Republicans in New York and
the G.. o. p. throughout the coun-
try will find they are on the wrong
trail in attacking the President,
who is revered and honored by the
whole American people.

GOOD wIsHEs-NorHING MORE.

1t may be news that the Foreign
Affairs Committee of the House of
Representatives in Congress, not
without opposition, reported favor
ably on joint resolution: THAT IL
Is the earnest hope of the Congress
of the United States of America
that the Peace Conference, now sit
ting in Paris, in passing upon the
rights of various peoples, will
favorably consider the claims Of
ireland to the right of self-de-
termination"
The resolution is a substitute for
that Of Representative Gallagher, OF
nlinoig requesting the American
delegates to present and urge on
the Peace Conference the right OF
freedom, independence and self-de-
Termination of Ireland, predicated
upon the principle laid down by the
President in his plea for an interna-
tional league, that ALI governments
derive their just powers from the
consent of the governed
The Gallagher resolution re-
quested the American delegates at
Paris to present and urge the right
of ireland to self-government. The
substitute resolution merely ex-
presses the earnest hope" that the
Paris conference will consider the
claims of Ireland to the right of
self-determination. There is quite
difference between the two resolu-
lions. 1t will be noted that the
resolution reported out counts for
nothing at all even If adopted by
the House and Senate. Ireland has
the good wishes of our Congress
men--but there the matter rests.
When it comes to taking any action
that will count toward securing the
presentation of Ireland's claims be-
fore the Peace Conference Congress
fears that it might embarass the
President. Probably it would.

UNWISE METHODS.

Much could be said about the
plans for characterization" tina
are now being advocated so zeal
ously in certain quarters. There i.
no room for doubling the desirable
ity of bringing about as soon as
possible the thorough Americaniza
ton of all our immigrants. Those
who come to America to make their
home should become Americans in
the best sense of the word without
delay. This is not a "no mans
land" in which dozen different
nationalities are to remain distinct
and to continue the ideals and the
language of their mother country
indefinitely. The great war has
shown that America must be united
as nation if it is to endure. But
there is such a thing as choosing
wrong methods of reaching a very
good end. Some of the proposals
made recently to force Americaniza
ton by forbidding the use of all
foreign languages in instruction,
both religious and secular, are ILL
advised to say the least. AS the
True Voice well says. it does not
promote love of our country in the
immigrant to force him to adopt
our language against his will. 1t is
likely to arouse in him a spirit OF
opposition and make him cling the
more tenaciously to his own Ian
guage. We have no doubt that If
let alone this language question
will settle itself much better than
State or National laws can dispose
of it. Time will eliminate the use
of all languages save English in
America and it is very doubtful
whether the process can be hurried
by law. After all what is needed
here is patriotism-devotion to
American ideals and American in
situations rather than the exclusive
use of the English language. That
will come in time. We have yet to
find children of the second genera
ton in America who employ any
foreign language except as a matter
of erudition. They may have
learned the language in school, or
they have picked up enough of it
to transact business; but English is
their native tongue and they would
not have it otherwise. We think
that most of this agitation against
foreign languages at this time is
and unwise. 1t may
react against Americanization in
stead of promoting it.

STILL HOLDS GOOD.

Our pro-English press still harpi
on the fallacy that John Bull saved
America by protecting our coast
during the war. For the benefit Of
these we quote from President
Abraham Lincoln's speech delivered
at Springfield, Ohio, January 90
1857, and the statement fits the
present case:
Shall we expect some trans
Atlantic military giant to step the
ocean and crush us at a blow?
Neverl All the armies of Europe,
Asia and Africa combined, with all
the treasures of the earth (our own
excepted) in their military chest,
with a Bonaparte for commander,
could not by force take a drink
from the Ohio or make a track on
the Blue Ridge in thousand
years"

SHOULD BE ANSWER.

In putting an embargo on i'm
ports of manufactured articles oil
all kinds the British Government
has made a strong bid for labor's
support. Indeed we are inclined to
think that the embargo is. at least
in part, a Government ruse to quiet
labor. and that 1t will not be per-
sisted In once the Government has
the economic situation under con-
troll. When we remember that
British exporting firms imported
much of what they sent to foreign
markets as of their own manufac-
ture, we can easily see that the
embargo win not long be main
tanned against those who sell their
surplus goods cheaply. In that case
II is the United States which the
embargo would affect-probably
was designed to affect, for the cost
Of production here is high and our
