(Batablished 1873) esa MORE INDIVIDUALS COMING? j Here’s a communication that strikes us as load- ed with patriotism: ~ : an Editor—It is a.war duty on the part of every head of a family to limit each mem- ber of the family to two pounds of sugar per month. The big consumers of sugar can be controlled by the government but the suc- cess of sugar conservation is going to depend upon the householders, As sure as shooting, the householder will find herself or himself ‘out of sugar before the month is out unless there is a systematic portionaing of sugar to each member of the family. The thing can be done through individual purchases, but I’m ready to hurrah for the fellow who gets up a neat (paper?) individual sugar bowl. If individual salt cellars and butter plates, why. not individual sugar bowls? onic Well, we can’t tell J. G. C. but. we note that the experts figure out that two ‘pounds of: sugar per month’ means about three: teaspoonfuls’ per. day and, we're trying to tell ourself whether. to ‘let go of cereals, or berries, or take our. coffee plain. Anyhow, if. the individual sugar ‘bowl arrives, we're going to see to it that nobody kicks ours over,” : : ‘y, | THESAME RATE lions of their sons to'their county to fight for e€ = for-all, forever. They: have dotte, this id without protest. They have made _bravely the greatest. gift possible to mothers. ‘These War Mothers are, going to /hold'‘a‘na- *~ tional convention at which they will embark upon a wonderful’ career of national: and’ co-ordinated war work to help their sons.achieve lasting victory “over there”. They have asked Director Gener- al McAdoo of the U: S. A: railroad to give f them for their convention’ the same railway rate he gives their sons who go to war,:one cent a mile. This rate, they say, will enable War Mother delegates from many. states to meet and arrive at the best possible plan for helping their boys win. It must be remembered, they go on to ex- plain, that, many of these War Mothers haye lean purses, ‘and that to them the present high War railroad rate is a barrier. For example: |The president of the national organization’ took. in ; washing to raise that American boy who was first, ; & °to die beneath the bayonets of:the HUNS on the {battlefield of France. | : t 1 All they/ask is ‘the same‘rate given one cent a mile, to Bo to their convention. Surely the U. S.'A. railroad can do that for the War Mothers of: America. ; er or FRENCH IN SCHOOLS When our boys come back from “gver there” they'll bring with them.a better knowledge of the French language and a greater love for the French people than the average American had when he headed for Berlin. He will have fought with. French soldiers. He will have traded with , French dealers. , And, don’t worry, girls, for he will:come back to you’ again, he will have talked theif. sons, h with French girls. So it will come about that when the Yanks re- turn: victorious and /proud of it’ millions of them will talk French to each other. and to us. > Mothers, fathers, sisters, brothers, and friends of boys “over there,” how are you going to con- ‘verse. with those victors who will. be given to slipping in a few French ‘words every now. and then? Hadn’t we Stay-at-homes better get busy and dig up a French’ dictionary and grammar? But. that isn’t all we can do.\ We have: ousted German from our schools. It ‘should stay ousted. No doubt it will. ; Why not substitute French for/German?

It is found in his remarks in passing sentence upon the pastor of a German church, convicted of the use of seditious language. The Tribune is glad to give it large space on this page. It is a highly instructive discussion of the whole question of the persistence of: the spirit’ of loyalty to his native country: in the ‘heart’ of the naturalized foreigner long after, he has been cloth- ed with the privileges and the rights and the pow- ers of an American citizen. PO hata - One point of particular interest. which: Judge Amidon emphasizes is the failuré of our’govern- ment and our people to recognize their own share of responsibility. for the conversion of a foreign immigrant into a real American'citizen, and thei: reluctanceto recognize.their. share ‘of the':blame which rests upoi the ‘un-Amerlcanizel foreigner for. cherishing a first allegiance ” to ‘ some’ other’ jcountry, and ‘some other civil institutions and ideals than our own, : : Another point of spécial interest was suggested of citizenship ’is not’ irrevocable; it may. drawn and the“individual to whom: it* carry out in good faith the’ obligations which nat-| uralization imposes upon him. ‘In other words; to be naturalized must be understood ‘hereafter to mean. to becéme an American—an American in spirit, in feeling and language and conduct. ‘This of course, as Judge Amidon says, cannot be accom- fort must be made tnd the time limit will be short enough to stimulate. to diligence and zeal\inicom- plying with the requirements of the oath. of al- legiance. ‘ _The idea of revoking the ‘certificate of citizen-| ship for faialure to conform with its obligations will have a.peculiar interest fora good many. In that connection: Judge Amidon: suggests the com- ing of a day°of judgment when it: shall. be: de: cided, whether. the foreigner is acting in good faith with the country.’ It would be: Yather ‘unpleasant for those who have elected, for instance, to neg- lect the language of the country of their; adoption and have pérsisted in thinking’ in‘dhd speaking Some schools already have broadened’ the scope ‘of French: studies.
