Why the Hyphen At AllL (Bridgeport Telegram.) A serial story now running in The neutrality, deals with the imaginar invasion of America in the year 1920 by the combined forces of England, Japan, Mexico, Russia and one or two others. There is a wild call for voi- unteers to save the nation. York hears the tread of marching Turner militia, 50,000 strong. At their head is « transparency labeled “German-American Turners,” but the word “German” has becen cro: ed out. the hyphen eliminated a only “American” remains. That is as it should But why must we wait uniil 19202 The foreign affairs of this country at the present moment are sufficiently complicated and sufficiently delicate to call for the Americanism of every citizen the United States to the exclusion of all else. The hyphen couldn’t choose a better time for its exil than right now. John T. King when speaking he- fore a Hungarian-American gather- ing recently, said only very weak un- fortunate people advocated the abo- lition of the hyphen. He gloried in it and told those of Hungarian birth and descent they should glory in it In spite of this we are inclined to think the abolition of the hyphen would be a good thing if based on sound patriotism. We do not expect coming from other countries to forget those countries. But we do think that «o long as they came here to escape the oppressive rule of Kuropean countries they should put America first and bhe real Amer- icans in thought and deed. In vocating the Aropping of the hyp we have the support of Herman Rid- der, editor of the New York Staats Zietung, and one of the most prom- inent German-Americans in the coun- try. The Rele of the United States. (London Statist.) It seems to us in the interests of all the world that the United States should, if she can with seclf-respect, remain neutral and so continue to he in a position in which she can finan- cially accommod:tc tries, and can provide the bel- ligerent countries with munitions of war as well, of course, as with food and the raw materials of manu- facturers. It scoms to us that it would be injurious to the world if the United States were to depart from the policy she has pursued for a whole 12 months. Nay, more, we helieve that the United States is performing a function which is highlv conducive to the material prosperity of all the world. alsa The Gove (Waterbury | Keep vour eves on the conference nf [ the Governors of the states of the Union which opens in Boston mnext | week.

(Torringten Register.) A movement which has spread into 27 different countries and which now includes an enrollment of over 2,000,- | 000 enthusiasts, has surely reached a i stage of development where further development is not reasonably to be looked for. It might reasonably be expected that, the novelty having worn off, the boy scout movement ‘would by this time be showing some signs of decline. But, according to the indications, it is reaching into new territories continuously and has gained a status in the United States that puts it on a basis of permanent ac- ceptance comparable to that of the public school system Several of the | have provided a course of training for scoutmasters.

As a by-product of the war busi- ness which has come to this country, { not the least important of the re- sults may be the improvement of manufacturing methods, consequent upon the getting out of large orders in limited time. Tn the absence of a special stimu- Ius, improvements in manufacturing are likely to slow. The ordinary routine of husiness is handled in the rcutine way—not because improved machines and improved methods are not discovered, hnt because to apply the new methods and to instal the new machinery calls for a very con- siderably ay of money. Unless the manufacturer can see his wa clear in making a heavy permanent investment in new machinery he s not likely to r the prunge; hence improvements are slow.
