Americanism and their determina-
ton to uphold it.
One of the reasons why the
product of the melting-pot has not
been equal to our hopes and expec-
tations is that, although We have
demanded that our newly-fledged
citizens be American at heart and
in action, we have taken the pro-
cess for granted, and have done
nothing to bring it about. one of
the principal planks in the peace
time program of the National Sc
curity league is remedying of this
condition. AS step in that direc-
ton we propose, that in the
American day parades all apli-
cants shall be given a distinct part
and place, so that they can meet US
and we can meet them, and that
they can thus be made to under
stand, as can only be done by some
form of ceremOney that American
citizenship is not merely an alb
stract process, but is vital thing
Everyone can recall what a
revelation of public sentiment was
furnished by the preparedness pa
rades in 1915. The question wheth-
er the American spirit and the his
toric institutions shall predominant
is today as outstanding as was the
of preparedness four years
ago. In fact 10 us as a people it is
more vital. That our citizens from
coast to coast and from canada to
the gulf feel and believe this will
be shown by the demonstrations in

UNDECIDED
ABOUT ENTERING
RACE THIS YEAR


Chicago, March Whether
the prohibition party will nominate
a candidate for the presidency and
take an active part in the coming
presidential campaign depends
upon the attitude of the major
parties toward the strict enforce
ment of prohibition. says Virgil G.
Hinshaw of this city. chairman of
the party.
There has been considerable
speculation among political OBJ
servers as to whether the prohi-
bition party would or would not
continue its political activity now
that prohibition has become a
constitutional enactment. Cues
lions have been asked whether the
prohibition party leaders would
feel that the party's object had
been attained and the time at hand
when prohibitionists might return
to or become affiliated with one
or the other of the major parties
Chairman Hinshaw believes the
battle is not over; that the fight
for enforcement of prohibition is
still to be wen.
"Our organization. he declares,
will continues as long as the al
coholic serpent continues to wiggle
its tai" Concerning the party's
attitude in the presidential cam
paign Mr.. Hinshaw said its poll
cies to De enunciated in its ma
tional convention at Lincoln. Neb.,
July - would depend entirely upon
the action taken at the conventions
of the major parties.
IF the major parties fail to
come out unequivocally for strict
enforcement of existing dry laws
we will certainly run a prohibition
for president" said Mr.. |
"Of course, 1t is up to the con-
vention whether we will or will
not run one anyway. But If the |
major parties fail to enforce not
only the eighteenth amendment
but existing prohibition laws as
well, | believe there will be break
ups that will bring many of their
voters and their big men to our
side"
AS to the party's probable action
lesser candidates, it is
said that it will seek the election |
of representative in congress,
members of legisla-
lures and others who are charged |
with the enforcement of the dry
law"
Ernest II. Cherrington of Wes-
O., declared that the Anti |
saloon league, of which he is sec
rotary. will work to defeat candi- |
dates who are avowedly opposed |
to prohibition enforcement.

QUICK THINKING
BY BARNEY 0LDFIELD
PlEASES OLD ADMlRER

That Barney Oldfield knows and
can call by name a larger and
more widely distributed army OF
acQuaintances than any other liv-
ing American is the honest belief
OF every one of the speed king $
close friends.
Twenty years before the pub
lie and a lifetime of almost con-
tinual travelling, combined with
Mr.. Oldfield's unusual ability as
mixer" have brought him into
personal touch with many thou
sands of people. His memory for
names and places rivals that of a
veteran rural congressman, cam
paigning his district.
But even such qualities as
these have been severely strained
since Barney retired fromsA icing
to assume the presidency of The
Oldfield Tire company, of Cleve-
land.
'You surely must remember me,
Barney" declared a would-be dis
tl'ibutor of Oldfield tires, elbow
ing his way into the former MAS
ter Drivers" office, and proceed
ing to relate a comparatively I'M
important event dating far back
in Oldfieldian history.
"Why sure | remember that" de-
clared the tire manufacturer with
Characteristic genialty. And l re-
member you too, You were the
man in the black hiatt"
With the desired tire franchise
in his pocket, the merchant left
that night for his home, where
he is doubtless today retelling the
interview in which the tire manu-
facturer so clearly recalled the
part he played.
