Americanism There Can Be No Compromise The Immigrants BY DR. FR. ANK CRANE (Copyright, 1919, by Prank Crane) | At the risk of being deported, or of being \raided and having my penknife taken from me as a dangerous weapon, I wish to state | that I like Immigrants. As far as I can trace, my ancestry is all American, and I was reared in the good old jmud of Sangamon County, Illinois. Ameri- cans are my folks, and of course the best ever, but all the same some of the meanest white folks I ever knew were one hundred per cent American. I love Negroes. ‘They’re full of laughs, kind of heart, loyal, and tender-hearted. They are pure human, Negro sunshine has done much toward making the world a |happier place to live in, | | love Italians. I have lived in Italy, and a kinder, gentler folk*do not exist on earth. I boarded with Signora Cippolini in Florence, and a more motherly, wholesome, and sweet- souled woman would be hard to find. No people love children and music and laugh- ter more than the Italians, I love the French. They have the su- preme instinct for the two things that most | enrich life—taste and joy. My sister used to say that if she had to be born again she would want to be born in France. And there is another saying which many appre- ciate, that every man has two native lands, his own and France. =i I love the British. At heart they are sound stock. No race has a deeper sense of decency, fair play, order, and justice. I love the Irish. Who does not? Warm, | witty, impulsive, generous, brave—‘“noth- ing’s too good for the Irish.” Income Tax Returns Income tax returns must be filed on or before March 16, 1919, and the many persona wait until the Inet few days to file; some will be late in getting their re- turns in owing to the rush and Will be penalized.

Oh, I know about the war and all that, but I also know enough to distinguish between a people and a dis- eased patriotism which tradition and wrong | ideas forced upon them. I have lived with Germans, worked with them, played with { them, eaten with them, drunk with them. | And those I have known were genial, intel- ligent, kind and good. I love the Chinese and Japanese and all the Orientals. To me they are intensely in- teresting. ‘They present our common hu- manity from a different angle.

I love the Scotch and Welsh and the Spanish and the Portuguese, and would like to spend a long time in their countries. My great regret is that-life is too short to live in every land a while. When I get to heaven I shall have time j to learn all their languages and get ac- quainted with humanity in all its wonderful phases. I am glad I am an American; I am glad- der I am a Human Being.

In August, 1918, hog prices began to climb aed our friend Hoover called a hurry-up meeting of the food administration at Washington for September 24 to fix hog prices. He said: “If we don't do something jogn will reach $30." On that com- mittee were neither farmers nor hog raisers; mostly they were of- ficers of packing companies, We learned later that nearly all the men appointed by Hoover to run the food administration under him were either employes of the packers or employes of the wugar trust. So these packing officials fixed hog prices this way: Corn in Da- kota was quoted at ‘They were not raising hogs there to any extent. Top sales of hogs in Chicago were taken, those two fig- ures were shaken up and tha was the price for our hogs It cost us $1.50 per hundred to ship our hogs to Chicago, and corn ship ped from Dakota was $1.75 at our station. Not one car of hogs in a hundred brings “top”; the real price | hundred lower.
