Tor na- great importance to future safety of our country we must go further in our well understood and from the Amer- ican point of view well justified en- deavors to har German from our country and promote by all means the spread and study of Knglish. Every true American must have a | passion to see English take the plac of German in the homes in America | Wwhere Ge If he does nee he is ignorant of the power of onc’s language or is a camouflaged American or a soft sentimentali alias weakling, in regard to national policies. One of the article national eredo is t the position of the Germans in the world depends | on the number of the people who will talk in the future German One of the principal national aims of Germany is to make her Kultur a “Weltkultnr'’ and her language a “Weltsprache.” For that purpose they have great funds for German scheols and propaganda of German fultur in foreign lands. What they can't do by those means they hope to tmpose by the might of their arms. How much the Germans think of the power of one's language shows plain- ly their cruel prosecution of the Polish language in the provinces of old Poland wnder German rule. Po- lish is the natives' language, but it is eliminated from schools, public life anc. worship in German Poland What shall we do here? What we must be done well and at once and by federal authority or action of cengress to make it nationwide. Let us eliminate the teaching of German from public schools, private schools and Sunday schools. Forbid our public libraries to lend to readers German books and our city and state officials to spend pub- li= money for buying of German baocks. Forbid German in The Sun in our m ons of s present and man is spoken. of the German the printing and sale of newspapers. If, as senti- mentalists claim, there are American citizens who do not know English, they must be ashamed of it. Such onés need urgently English primers, but certainly not German newspapers. Forbid the use of the German nguage at public meetings. Make English the officlal of all socleties and lodges. Forbid in wartime the use of Ger- man in telephonic conversation and in telegrams An invitation ought to be sent to ail German churches to replace, when and where possible, the German ianguage in worship by the English as a voluntary demonstration of loval Americanism. Confine the use of Ger- man to homes only and leave it op- ticnal with the German churches as a language of worship. All Teutons, subjects of the two Kaisers, are enemies of the Ameri- can nation. Neither the hatred of America by Germany will end with the present war nor will the plans and attempts of the German nation te dominate the world end with her first failure. The Germans will try 1¢ again and again. The sooner we realize that the struggle of Ameri- canism against Germanism is going te last for many years the better will we be prepared to meet successfully the many forms of German enmity. A passion for all things English in the United~ States is naither hysteria nor fanaticism nor 1ly hatred. Tt ic a healthy, vigorous national policy and absolutely necessary for the fu- ture well being of our country.. At the end of this war we must have all the melting elements of our country melted into loyal Americanism, and Finglish must be the language of every home in the United States JULIUS HUPERT, M.

Meskill in police court this morning on a technical charge of breach the peace which was, in fact, the ut- terance of disloyal statements. Caro is 46 years old and has a wife in the old countr; The alleged disloyal were made yesterday in cial street restaurant. Duffy, on whose complaint McAvay made the arrest, testified that Caro shouted in the restaurant: “America is no good. Germany will beat her. Americans are no good any- way.” Duffy immediately jumped his feet and challenged Caro, order- ing him to stand up if he was any kind of a man. Caro declined to stand, but was finally ejected only to return. Frank Kitson testified that he heard Caro say “To hell with Amer- ica,” and Amos Jones said that he heard Cavo declare: “America is good, but the Kkaiser was.” Officers Lyon and McAvay aftor being locked up Caro used vile language voicing his opinion of the United States.

Wise to the peace pipe which is reported to have been smoked be- tween Mr. Taft and Colonel Theodore Roosevelt. In presenting Mr. Taft to the audi- ence, Dr. Wise remarked: “He is rumored to have lost a friend at one time and to have even regained him." This caused Mr. Taft to shake with laughter. In further presenting Mr. Taft, Dr. Wise said: He is the example of a man who not thinking about party or any- ca and the winning of He is the friend of ever: body and he everybody’'s friend.” Mr. Taft Teferred to Mr. Roosevelt as “A Rough Rider with a picturesque past.” Now we republicans in this just and holy war,’ declared Mr. Taft. *If, as a govern- ment, we can't protect our citizens, then we had better go out of the gov- ernment business. “If we are to live as a free people and be happy, we cannot allow the war to end until we dictate a peace New Yor is the war. re neither democrats nor { to Germany from | “We should rejoice that the Kaiser was wrong when he said that Ameri- ca's entry into the war could be pre- vented by the treason of Germans in America.

Would you rather warm your toes next winter or quench your thirst today. The men of the fuel administration in Washington, headed by Dr. Garfield, evidently don’t believe you can have both, for they are after the brewers and are preparing to make them cut the out- ‘put of beer this summer in the inter- ests of warmer flats next winter. A Washington despatch announces, that representatives of the brewery interests will be called for conference with the fuel administration within the next few weeks to discuss the limits of beer production in the United States for the year beginning June 30. The brewing was cultailed thirty per cent on April 1 by mutual agreement, and the fuel administra- tion says that the consequent saving of coal ‘““was considerable,” whatever that may mean. They also believe that even more than ‘“considerable” can be effected after June 30. “T don't know what they are going to do,” said Colonel Jacob Ruppert vesterday, speaking for the New York brewers. ‘“None of us knows hat is going to be done. We cut production thirty per cent on April 1, and now the people in Washington want ment, but what it is T have no idea. None of the brewers knows anvthing more about it than I do, and T know nothing at all.” “Does it mean that we are to have less and less beer ™ “It looks that way, but I really don’t know, We are all at sea about what is going to be done.

New York, June 3.—The National War Labor Board announced yester- day that it had found the Western Union Company unwilling to conform with the principles of the board in the matter of relations between employ- ers and emploves, and, therefore, the | board could not mediate the question of the di emplyes of 800 Com- harge of more than the Western Union { pany because they had insisted upon joining a union. Being without pow- er to take any action on its decision, the National War Labor Board con- sidered it advisable to go no further than to make public its report on the deliberations, indicating therein t the public itsreporton the results of its refusal of the Western Union Company to accept a proffered compromise upon which a satisfac- tory settlement might have been reached. The attitude of the Western Unlon Company stirred labor leaders yester- day to immediate action. Not only ras it announced that confidential in- ructions would be sent at once to telegraphers in 200 cities to prepare for a wgeneral strike on short notice, but a campaign was begun for imme- diate legislation that would place the telegraph lines under Federal control. 8.
