G 1 1ST BE DPCD I Rep. Martin P. Madden Says There's No Room For the Hyphen in America. That the United States ha.s no time or place for hyphenated Americana, v. as nnc of the statements of Martin II. Madden, Chicago nri'.-'inun, before tho intiulxTs of tho Knife and Fork club at tho first dinner of tho year at tho Oliver hotel Tuesday night. Congressman Madden talked on "National Deterns." in which h pointed out tho immediate, need of protection for this country. Preceding his tal. an illustrated 1 ort uro on ' Tho Submarine" was Riven by Farnliutu ULdiop of New York. "We want Americans, no matter where they may hail from, to bo Americans. This is no time or place j or hyphenated Americans. No matter where they may come from, whether it bo Russia, Germany, Austria, Kr.gland or any other place, they must Ieae their foreign institutions und foreign characteristics behind them. They should cast aside their love and patriotism for their old home.s and have tho same old feeling for this country their adopted homo. Madden's Plan. "At tho present time wo have 12,00,000 foreigners in the United .States who have never declared their Intention of becoming citizens of tho I'nited States. If 1 had my way, I would meet those people at the immigration ollice at the port with a constitution in my hand ar.d make them take their oath of allegiance to the United States right there. ' "I am interested in the protection of American institutions Just as every American should bo. For tho past year I have investigated tho proposition of defending the country in w hich wo livo. Kight now In a time of peaco hi this country we should establish military etiick noy camps similar to the ono at Plattsburg, N. Y., throughout the country. Iromtel Camp. "I was one of ti e men who first instigated th camp at Fort Sheridan, III. One day, long before tho camp at that place was established. I took a train ft r Washington when nobody in Chicago knew where I wa.s going. I went to poo tfec'y of War Garrison, and talked to him about a tiling of this kind. Five minutes after I entered his olllco ho had the chief of staff there with A telegram was sent to Chicago to the otlicer in charge there to assist in this work. "At. tirst wo hail trouble In en1. 'sting men. In order to stimulate th interest, T enlisted, myself, nnd gave talk before many of tho most prominent clubs, talking to more than 000 men. We received hundreds of appllcat'ons to tako the work at the camp, but we chose only those men who were of such calibre and had enough education to take charge of tiooj-.s in case r war, tor that was the purpose of the camp. Danger of War. "Here in the Cnited States we realized early In the European war that langer existed for America maybe not today, but some time later when the war is over. Some day one or more of the Kuropean nations will realize that the United .States is the most prosperous country on earth, has the biggest shipping interests, ami will become jealous. They will want to pick this plum and we must be prepared for that time. "Ah Americans we are inclined to thir.k that we can lick the world. We can't. Just now we have 4,oeo ollicers in the Fnited States army and this is not enough to train olunteer troops in time of war, let alone handle our campaigns. Kngland has already lost 15,000 oliicers. "If there ever was a time when wo needed American patriotism, it is now. We insist on having our electric light plants, oar excellent water ystems. the right of suffrage and all that. If we insist on the right of citizenship, we must also assume the responsibilities of that citizenship. Must Hae Policy. "When tho United States was tirst organized it was considered an experiment and some still think it is. Other governments refused to recognize us a :i a stable nation and thought we ..uld not live. But now we have outgrown the 13 original states. We have broadened out over the seas. Who i wehere first organized we were isolate;. We had no foreign policy ii.i-les-s the Monroe doctrine can be called such. But we are no longer isolated. The telephone ami telegraph and railroad have brought us into communication with ourselves and other nation'', and we must have a foreign policy whether or no. "Wo mut prepare for war. for we can not tell when we are going to bo inolotl in a reat struggle. Whr knew two years ago. with the possible except ion of a few crowned head, that Furope would be at war today? We do nut want war. The Americans are a peace-loving people, but what are we to do if we are Mid "only thrown into a conflict? "In all of ihc european monarchies they depend upoi 'the- sword for government, but in th United .States we depend upon the re.-pect of tho people, Improves the taste of other foods with which it is used; but does nor t destroy their natural a r I VCt' ' ! g, iiavors. gp-

for the law We have a right to be proud of our Institution.-. Wants 200Mio Men. "We have a snall standing army and I don't believe we need an exceptionally largo ono. Hut I do believe ' that we need an army large enough , to iWm the Hrst line of defense while tho second line Is being organized. We har an army on paper of 120,000, but I don't believe that more than half of this number could be mobilized. (Jive us an army of 2oi,000. "Wo are in the Interior and must not lose sight of the fact that we are not wholly safe, for the seaboard could not be torn to pieces without affecting us. Gentlemen of Indiana, there is danger lurking everywhere. It ..ill cost a lot of money to 'prepare ourselves for defense, but what is that compared W'ith the or of prestige that would result If we were suddenly attacked when it is too late, when fa bul oos sums would be .ifent and thousands of lives wasted?" Farnham Bishop took a rap at the I'nited States for its failure to have safety devices for submarines like other navies of the world have. According to .Mr. Bishop, it is barely possible that the lives of the men on the F-4 might have been saved had this country had a boat used for lifting stinker- torpedoes like those of Italy and Germany. Nearly .TOO members of the club attended this, the opening meeting of the eighth season of tho club. Home C. Stephenson acted as toantmaster and the invocation whs asked by Rev. C. If. Black.. pastor of Lowell Heights M. K. church. Mr. Bishop gave the history of the submarine from the time the Hrst one was built between 1620 and 1624 down to tho modern ones being used in the Kuropean war. In discussing the attack made on the Laisitania by a German submarine, he told of the words of Tinkling Cloud, a .Sioux Indian, who said, when told of the sinkings "Now you white men can never call us redmen savages again." History of Silymarine. Cornelius Van Drebel built three submarines between 1620 and 1624. Bushneil built one that was used in an attack on the British ships in New York harbor in 177 . Robert Fulton built one for Napoleon in J S01. Fulton also invented the word "torpedo,' taking the name from a fish which the submarine resembled. lie invented mines and the first steam warship. Mr. Bishop told of a confederate .submarine that was used in the civil war. He gave the life story of Holland, who perfected the submarine, saying that like the Wright brothers, he experimented with practical things before he was successful. He describes the Whitehead torpedo and the Nordenfehl steam submarine. I TWO DISTINGUISHED MEN AT NOTRE DAME Rev. Daniel J. O'rley of New York and Rev. Luke J. I!ers of 8t. 1 I i The Very Kev. Daniel J. Curley of New York city, and recently created ' ishop of the diocese of St. Augustine, Fla., accompanied by the Very Hev. Uonsignor Luke J. Fvcrs. chaplain of The Tombs, city bridewell of New York, were visitors at tho University of Noire Dame yesterday. The hrst knowledge the students had of the distinguished guests presence was in the refectory at noon, when the bishop gave an after-dinner speech following his formal introduction by Father Matthew Walsh, C.S.C.. vicepresident of the university. Bishop Curley, in a few particularly wellchosen words and a tine voice, told the students that they should take advantage of every moment's time at the famous institution of learning. He also commended the meritorious work of the priests and brothers of the congregation of the Holy Cross in the education of the Catholic young men of the United States. In the afternoon Bishop Curley visited St. Mary's ami addressed the entire number of girls assembled in the auditorium. He expressed his admiration for the beautiful grounds and buildings of the academy. The bishop w.'.'.j also an interested spectator at the daily practice of the varsitv on Carticr field. FREE RACES TODAY. Springbrook Driving t'ltih Will Present Can! at Track. With good weather practically a surety, local racing enthusiasts will be given the opportunity of seeing a free card, consist! ?c of three events, at the Springbrook track this afternoon. The matinee will be the maiden effort of tho recently organized Springbrook Drhing club, which is giving it to the public free of charge in order to let the fans see the best of the South Bend trotters and pacers in action. Although no money could be expended to bring outside horses here for the matinee, on account of the fact that no admission fee is to be fhiiwd. it is probaMe that two horses from Nik-s. of the IMly Cullen string, will be entered In today's events. The tlrst race will be called at 2 o'clock. The events will be the 2:23 trot, the 2:30 pace and the 2:35 trot.

JITNEY TRAF Committee of Whole Votes Down Lang's Pet Sill After, Much Argument. The committee of tho whole of the common council and Councilman II. F. Lan, fntmer and booster of the fourth jitney bus ordinance to be pre sented to the committee of the whole j within the past two months, learned after a lengthy Meeting of that body last nbjht that the council did not: want regulation of the Jitney traltlc in . fcouth Uend for .the present. ling's j pet bill was voted down after much ' argument the much touted "happymedium" not yet being struck. At a special meeting of the council held prior to the more important business of the committee, the hoard of public wotks, through an ordinance to that effect, was authorized to proceed with the work of improving I.eeper av. from Howard av. to the city limits. This ordinance was framed by the board of public works, at the instigation of property holders of the avenue in question. The council wa presented with the matter because the board of works had recently placed on Tile a remonstrance which wa-s said to have, been signed by a majority of the property holders concerned. However, am Leeptr, local banker and business man, was on hand to assure the council that ther had been a decided change in the attitude of the free holders along the street. These, he paid, having been assured that the proposed pavement would be composed of nsphalt concrete, were willing to pay their share in the assessments if the work would be compk-ted within the present autumn. Although most of the men concerned own property, the rear portions of which lie along Ihe avenue. th council wu.3 assured that they had oU:uised in their attitude In the matier. It v as the nTst time hi the history of the city that a bit of evic Improvement had been furtherei over the riling of a remonstrance with the board of public works. The bill was pas-d under a suspension of the regular rules of the council. Tho meeting also resulted in the authorization of the city controller to pay the owners of the Wooda-Turner tract of land west of the Singer factory some flL&12.S0. that being the amount due, with interest, upon the purchase w hich was taken over by th-i cltv In May. l'JIZ. The city recently i i issued Jll'tSüO in municipal bonds with which to pay for the tract and that money will be turned into the general fund o" the city within the next fewweeks. This also was adopted under a suspension of the rules. Prrs't Kichard Elbel of the board of park commissioners was present at the meeting to speak in behalf of two ordinances recently presented to the

council by his board. These were a bill establishing the oiflce of city forester anil giving over all city trees to tho supervision of the park board, and an ordinance dividing the city into four park districts. In each of which the property holders would equally share assessment on whatever park "work was carried out. l'.oth bills were referred to the next meeting of the committee. v (Jus .Stueckle, former councilman from the fourth ward; K. Louis Kuhn, i'res't Klbel nnd Herman Beyer, former park superintendent, spoke upon the forestry ordinance. The latter declared the bill a menace to the taxpayers of the city. He stated that it would be unfair to the citizens of tho districts assessed in that some of them would benefit little by changes which were not In their community. Steuckle and Kuhn advocated the passage of the bill, as did, of course, Klbel. "The bill is too voluminous for intelligent discussion at the present time," said Councilman Lang, "and I move that it be held over until the next meeting." The motion was unanimously adopted. A petition from the residents of Clinton St., along the line of th Franklin school property, that 210 feet of the street be closed through the school noon hour and ror-esses so that the children could play upon Its surface in safety, was referred to tho board of public woiks, when City Atty. Seebirt decided that the council would have no power to close a street for any purpose whatsoever. "We would not entirely close tho street." said Miss Edith Hrown, principal of the school. "We wish merely the ;nivilege of allowing the children to play upon it. We would like some sort of safety measure, however." In defense of his jitney bus bill. Councilman Lang declared that the jitney buses have become as much a public utility as arty other public service elomcnt In the city, and that as such they should be forced to pay revenue for the use of the city's streets. Ling declared that the Idea which some attorneys and members of the council pefent seemed to hold that he was a tool and representative of the railway company were mistaken. "I want one ind for all to disabuse your minds of that supposition." he asserted. "I am speaking merely as a citizen of tho city cf outh Bend." However, Atty. Isaac Kane Parks of Mlshawaka. one of the attorneys retained ty the jitney drivers to represent their interests before the council and committee, declared that if the sentiment of the public were adhered to. the jitneys would remain unmolested until they, had Income an element of municipal difficulty which would warrant more drastic attention from th council. He suggested that if any regulation at all were adopted, a nominal fe- of $1 be charged merely to identify the driver and list him. To this, he said, might be udded a small bond, the premium upon which would not exceed $2'" annually. When the matter came to a vote, the ordinance lost in a tie. Five members vote! favorably upon it and the other five against it. The yote was as follows: Ayes Miller, Lanu, Hagey. "Wolters and ' icchner. N7a Goebel. Hagerty, Thorn p2T.

These were incandescents. which took the place of arcü, and the complaint alleged that their light was inefficient. Hagerty stated that he had personally been over the ground and that in his opinion the complaint was justilied. However, ho added that the board of works had taken the matter up with the Indiana Michigan Klectric Co. and that the matter would be suitably disposed of.
