"IN THE DAYS NEWS


Governor Henry j. Allen, of Kansas,
who is suggested by the Republicans
OF his state as candidate for the pres
idential nomination, owes his national
reputation largely to his authorship of
the so-called industrial court legis-
lation in Kansas, designed to prevent
tie-up of public utilities by disputes
between employers and employees. A
native of Pennsylvania, Governor ALI
en- was educated at Baker university
and Washburn College, and from the
first-named institution he has received
an honorary A M>degree. After COM
pleting his studies he adopted Journal
ism as career and in the course of
time became owner of daily papers in
several cities of Kansas, finally locat-
ing in the city of Wichita. He early
became recognized for his, brilliant
radlcalism and has always been looked
upon in Kansas as power to be con-
sidered in any fight against the vary
ing forms of social injustice.

DR.. Sparks was with Miss Krause

of the language.
1t was emphasized that these opportunities were
to be purely voluntary. No one was compelled to
learn against his will.
Then, when sufficient progress had been made
in mastering English, 1t would be possible to take
out citizenship papers and to become a real part
Of the country Of their adoption.
At 5 O'Clock. II any one had told Luigi and Cas-
imir that before they reached home at night they
would not only understand but speak, five SEN
fences of English, they wouldn't have believed 1t.
But that is precisely what occurred-and all In
the short space of twenty minutes.
Fred Rindge, Jr, an Industrial service worker,
brought to pass this seeming miracle. Grouping
fifty of the men before him, Mr.. Rindge named
five simple words-see, find, awake, look, arise.
Pronouncing each word distinctly a number OF
times, he asked his hearers to repeat them after
him. When this had been done to his s~atisfac-
ton, all was in readiness for the first lesson.
Getting up in the morning" said he, yawning
and stretching his arms. "Now altogether re-
peat after me. Il ~tpointing to himselD T. T.
No awake awake awake awake Now,
from Sleep" and so on, until within twenty
minutes the entire class said fuently and with
perfect understanding:
81 awake from sleep. ! open my eyes,. I look
for my watch. l see what time 1t is. 1t is six
O'Clock"
Deep down in the heart of Luigi. a new respect
for the company which employed him, a new
sense of responsibility, and a new ambition took
root before long. He felt that he had been given
an opportunity. He was not going to spend his
best years as a stranger in n strange land, strug-
Cling with an unfamiliar tongue, unrecognized.
a mere cog in the wheel Of industry. Soon he
would speak English readily. He would under
stand all that was going on In the shop. He
would work hard. would buy a little house. would
give up the idea of boarding his money and some
day taking steerage passage to Italy. He would
give Maria all sorts of comforts, would teach
her, English. too. A new day had dawned in the
life of Luigi.
As for Casimir. II had seemed to him that he
was no farther along than when he had first
came, years ago. from Poland. He had made
no effort to learn English, for the simple reason
that nobody cared whether he did or not. Now he
had changed his mind. His employers were max
ing an effort to understand him very well, he
would make an effort to understand his employers.
There was no question but that if he understood
and could talk English, he would get along bet
ter.
Luigi and Casimir are typical Of the men in
whose behalf the company has launched this
Augmentation campaign. which Is being watched
by Industrial managers the country over. A can
yass of the alien workers was made in the Sche-
nectady plant. disclosing the fact that there are
