LAST HONORS TO AMERICA'S UNKNOWN SOLDIER

ments of which Amfrl.-an -(tt7cnsh'r Is composed the degree to which v are able to "Americanize" every man. woman and child beneath the flag.
"That Is by far tho hardest, but It ta also the noblest work that human beings ever have been called upon to perform. No other land has to deal with anyt hirer resembline the vti-iv-loglcal conditions from which springs America's Peculiar, Intricate and difficult problem; It Is not only without parallel anywhere else In tho world; hut In no other country la there anything: even resembling our complicated racial tangle. "At various brief times durinr our history there have been uprising's ngralnet what the agitators called "foreigners" by which term was this country at a later date than tho forebears of the agitators themselves came to this country. Within tho last few years this hostility to "foreigners" has been revived a hostility which Is Igrnorant. Illiberal, unjust and utterly un-American. Mingled with this senseless hatred of "mrvgners" Is an effort to Inject religious controversy and to Incite one part of our citizens against another rart of our citizens because of differences In religious affiliation. "No nation ever confronted at any tima eo many perils n.3 those which now menace America; and it does not lessen the dangers that wo have brought most of them upon lurFelves. But ail of them put together do rot equal the evil of rac-
nans are of many racial groups and'0'
-nany religious faiths, and our task i to do well these different racial lernents Into one great harmonious people and to practice toward one mother absolute liberty of religious jnd political opinio. "The rromise of American life Is is TalH and as real for the children of newly arrived imigrants to our chores, and for those imigrants themselves, as that promise is valid and eal to those whose ancestors have dwelt in America for many generations. Moreover, these so-called "foreigners" have availed themselves of the opportunities afforded by our free American institutions, rot only to better their material condition and improve their Intellect and character, but also in service to our common country. "Indeed, ft Is to the credit of these of us so-called original American stock, that the children of imigrants are actually making a better showingShan our children are making. Within the last few years a careful examination has been made by he authorities of the public libraries of some of our greatest cities; and 'lie result of that investigation shocks and reukes the smug complacericecy of those whoso chief pastime Is to boast of their American ancestor?-- and

called "forelgrn blood." la It not then Illiberal and unworthy to cherlshm prejudice against such people? Is it not foolish and wished to assume and declare that they are less useful or patriotic than we whose ancestors came to America a few generations earlier? Unless we would wreck the nation by compelling and p- vpr tuating racial group.-, w.? must rebuke such false and narrow views. We are all Americans and we must live up to that glorlus truth. Livery one of us know men and women are of recent foreign ancestry who are better Americans than some of us whose forebears lived In America for many generations. The great task before us is the genuine Americanization the real thing of every man. woman and child beneath the flag; and some of long- American lineage need "Americanizing" quite as much as those who have been in this country for no longer time than a single generation. "I plead for American unity; I plead for American Folidarity; I plead for American harmony; I plead for that abKolute and exclusive devotion to the American nation which, alone, can produce concord among our citizens and bring forth, at last, a homogeneous people." Senator Ueveridge then explained what he termed "the fundamentls of American institutions." lie anal-zed tiie reasons for free speech, obedience to law. security of property, supremacy of courts, sancticty of home, and other elements of American in-stitutlon.s.

our children of "pure American blood" take out of the libraries and read practically nothing except the cheapest, lightest and ri'st transient fiction.
