ALIENS SHOULD BE REGISTERED TO CHECK RIOTS N a t i o na I Americanization ; Committee Urges Service ; for Foreigners.

t NEW YORK. Jaly IT. As a result of the work of the "secret service agents" of the States, only after Ger'many had apparently come Into possession of the most vital secrets of the military and naval forces of the country, It was learned that Scandinavian sailors had been acting as unofficial mail carriers between this country and Germany. These men willingly told their etory to the authorities, disclaiming all Intent of wilful wrong-doing. The mischief had been done, however, and but for the vigilance of the United States destroyers, transports with 'hundreds of American soldiers would have been sunk. - It Is believed by many intelligent men that the real danger to the United States lies not in the hands of the enemy alien but In the fact that hundreds of thousands of friendly aliens have no means of ascertaining what i the United States expects them to do. ' They do not seek to harm the cause of the country of their adoption, but ' they turn to their nearest neighbor 4 for instruction and that neighbor is i frequently the very man that the "secret service agent" would . like most to meet. German Bargemen Fired A short time ago the United States Marshal in New York was ordered to see that all German longshoremen, lighter hands and bargemen employed along the . East and North Rivers, 'were discharged. ' To date there have been no means provided to ascertain whether or not these men have left these Jobs. ; Apparently they have not. ' If they had, there would have been at least some evidence of disturbance for a hungry man or a man without : means of providing for himself and :iu famiiv i a rieRDerate man.

There Is at the present time no one renter, either under the United States vet in New York

t.tate. where the alien can apply for

instruction, there Is no oureau wnicn will undertake the work of intelligent

ly surveying, the various inaustnai t plants with a view of placing or shift

. ing alien labor to trie nesi advantage, and after all, the alien forms the real inan power of the country's industry. Laws have been made by both Fed- ' eral and State legislative bodies to regi late the alien in his movements and . tctivities. . These have primarily been measures which applied to "enemy aliens." However, even these people have been left largely to their own devices. German propaganda has been introduced throughout every center where the other strangers within our gates predominate. "The United States faces one of the gravest situations of the war in the alien," stated Miss France A. Kellor cf the National Americanization Com- . mittee, the only organization in the state which is actively engaged in untangling the amazing snarl in which the alien and the American is involved. What Shall He Do? "The utmost chaos reigns as the repult of the President's War Proclamation. It is all right to say. ADbey the liw and keep your mouth shut' but what is the law and what shall an alien say when spoken to or told to do certain tilings by as many different officers, as there are laws: "The alien is a simple living, active," vibrant human being. He wants to know about staying in a war zone, where to get a job if he can't stay there, who is friendly and who isn't, whether his property is safe, whether ! the selective draft applies to him, where he can volunteer, what claims his home government has, how to become a citizen and he wants to know them all together. He has not com- . mand of English, of time, of money, cf leisure, or of transportation to go to the hundreds of separate places necessary to answer these questions. "The Americans are playing a game called 'passing the buck' with the

Not a Corn or Callus on Feet Apply few drops, then lift them off without pain.

A noted Cincinnati authority discovered a new ether compound and called

it freezone and it now can le had in little bottles for

a few cents from any drug store. You simply apply a few drops of freezone upon a

tender corn or painful callus and Instantly the sore

ness disappears, then

shortly you will find the

corn or callus so loose that you can lift it off with

fingers.

No pain, not a bit of

aliens. There isn't a single official

place in these whole United States where he can . get authoritative answers on -what we expect of him, how he can be of service, what his duties

and obligations are specifically. There are not two places in the whole country where he can get Identical answers tc all of these questions. There isn't

machinery or interest enough to ex

change the enemy aliens from the war

zones to non-strategio industries for non-enemy aliens and save our man power. Thousands of perfectly good Americanization meetings are being held in harmless places Instead of fol

lowing the trail of the Socialist and I.

W. W. We lack direction, co-ordination, intelligence, vision and about every known war essential in dealing with this question. We stand at at

tention and act upon complaints only, instead of preventing complaints and safeguarding what we know, are vulnerable and weak spots open to disaster. Something Should Be Oone "Something intelligent and constructive and purposeful should be done with the alien in the United States now. "Here we have millions of men and women, born in the lands at war with each other, nervous, apprehensive, dependent wholly upon the statements printed often in foreign languages for

their information- concerning their

status, rights and duties in wartime.

"We have these same millions will

ing to be loyal to America, observe our laws, give us their help, work in our industries, If they only know what theh American wants them to do. "We have these same millions open to approaches and influences and suggestions from too ardent pacifist and socialist and other busy anti-American agitators, working through a system with little or no consideration from friends of America. "We have others disloyal their hearts given to another country whom we can never Americanize and whose influence and activities we must reduce to a minimum. Invited to Help "We have the alien in America today threatened by his home coontry, registered and drafted by America, urged to declare his allegiance and Join the National Guard, ana told that his place is in the industries making war products. And last but not least he is invited into Home Defense Corps to look after the firesides when the boys go to the front. "It is a wonder and to the credit of all aliens that under these conditions, of suspicion, misunderstanding, ignorance, misdirection, and absence of standards that America has been so quiet at home. It is unreasonable to expect this condition to continue under the increasing stress of war. "Let there come one great calamity that touches the hearts of Americans, whether on high seas or in the trenches, that takes a boy out of every

state or town, and "alien baiting" will

run high and alien malice toward America will find vent. Is this the

lull before the storm and shall we stay

asleep? "Let the., conditions change and where are we? America has 33,000,-

000 of its people foreign-born or of foreign-born parentage. Of these four-

fifths are massed in the industrial states turning out our war supplies. It is impossible that coming from every

land as they do that all of theseinsople should be for America first. It is inevitable that some can be reached by the enemies of America. ' Aliens Not Listed

"America has no registration of its aliens; it has no way of knowing

where they are, whether they go or

who they associate with. The effic

iency and benefits of one good system and one good wide-awake officer in

one locality are not extended to an

other. America has no method of to

Recruiter Looks Up to This Applicant Sergeant Hayes, of the recruiting station, glanced up from his work last Saturday morning at a man who entered. " " f He glanced a good way up. Six feet and nine inches, to be exact. "I want to join the army," said the applicant., The sergeant saw at once that the man was under the weight limit, but he put him on the scales to see just how much he weighed. With his clothes on, he weighed 120. Stri the other way. he hefted just 112. "His name?" asked a reported. "Well." said the sergeant, "I was so darned astonished that I forgot to get his name."

forming, these people what is expected of them or of the changes in these expectations from day to day It is estimated that 25 per cent of alien work

men are employed every day hunting

jobs or exchanging jobs. The economic Iosb to America is serious enough the discipline loss is even more serious and the unity lose to

America is tremendous. The man who doesnt stay long enough on a job or

in a town to make friends, to get a

neighborhood contact, to establish a

home tie or to get the feel of an American town is like a typhoid carrier he may never come down with

the disease of disloyalty and intrigue but he infects whole groups of other

men. "There is only one way to deal with this matter a central intelligence bureau for aliens 'with two co-ordinated services. An investigative service to cover the destructive activities as spies, plots, violations of laws, censorship and carrying out of official -orders. This is the repressive phase of the work. Coordination Needed "Equally Important must be the active service to furnish information on all matters connected with the war to all aliens that need it to conserve industry by directing the transfer of

aliens from war zones, by exchanging

men, by safeguarding products from aliens in plants; to co-ordinate the many enlistment decentralized enlistment appeals and plans for aliens, to assist in the necessary adjustment which bear so heavily on aliens as a result of the war, to direct the hundteds of Americanization movements now under way and which could become a wonderful medium for inoculating loyalty and order. This is the constructive preventive work. "If this war continues we shall come to central registry of aliens, using our postmasters as local registration agents and prescribing rules and regulations for removal without notice and means of identification. This is a preventive, not a regulative measure and can be made the means of winning the confidence and support of aliens. "The whole subject is now utterly decentralized, neglected and disorganized. ..' ' . "'" x "p"We "are Tinprepared. On the alien problem we have not acted. We have not faced the facts or provided the ireans of handling them.' It is unfair to the alien, unjust to the allies, unsafe for America. We can make the aliens in America a great force for order, loyalty, efficiency or they may become a great medium for disorder, disloyalty and labor unrest and agitation. The Federal government has the opportunity to make it the one or the other."
