pressed his deep appreciation. On
his arrival in Townsville Thursday

though the treaty's scrapping provis-
ions will not become effective until
the instrument has been ratified by

in expenditures for armOr, arma-
ment and munitions. A total of $47,-
470,O0O had been appropriated for

Correspondence schools and

Il me, are the solution. They rep
+ ssent real democratic education.
Work is no handicap to study.
"The greatest men in this
country secured their education
through the basic correspondence
school principle-home study.
Many of them have done this
without the direction of effort
and supervision which correspond
enc schools give. This being true,
ce1 tainly it is possible for the av-
er age student to do as much under
staff of skilled instructors.
"The faculties of correspondence
schools of national standing COM
pare favorably with those of the
universities. Their influence PEN
etrates to the remote quarters of
the country. That means the open
door to the best instruction for
everybody. That is what l mean
by democratic education"

nearly 6,10O times, DR. /Conwell

Every cent of this money, above

of which DR.. Conwell has been
pastor for 40 years, has the largest

are, indeed lofty callings, and men
who gain success in them may well
feel pride in their achievem ent, a
pride mingled with respect f3r the

'As a boy l looked up with un-
bounded respect to the banker who
played so important a part among

unbounded respect to the boy who is

ToWNER-sTERLINe BILL
pensacola Journal.)

Much discussion at tie capitol centers around
the Demonstrating bill to create department of
education, in place OF the present small bureau
of education. Arguments pro and con from many
angles are heard on every side but even thought
full legislators who are opposed to the bill on
the ground that have enough depart
ments and enough members of the cabinet,
finding food for thought in favor of the bill when
they consider its Americanizaton possibilities.
: The United States for many years had no i'm
migration policy, beyond throwing wide open the
gates and assimilating as many immigrants
cared to come. Later, we became little more
particular, and now we have a percentage law
which limits our incomers to a reasonable pro-
portion OF men and women of the immigrants
nationality already here.
But we have not revised our citizenship acquisi-
tion laws for many years; we have rested satisfied
with the procedure which did we'll enough when
applicants were few. We did, indeed amend the
law to make it impossible" to swear men in as
citizens in blocks" but that law is more honored
in the breach than in the observance.
The net result is that we make more than three
hundred thousand new citizens a year. not to
mention their wives and children.
What sort Of citizens are they? Just as good,
and not one bit better, than we give them the
opportunity of being. And opportunity" here
means Americanization schools characterization
propaganda, Americanzation methods directed
particularly to those who most need them His
tory proves that the average immigrant wants to
learn, that he usually makes good citizen when
he has had chance to be one, but that he can't
learn if he doesn't speak English, and unless he
does learn American ways and American ideals;
he becomes very undesirable citizen indeed!
