F.CHHXSSPEAKS ON AMERICANISM
(Continaed frera paca 1)
The King of Belgium moet truly said, "If anything ahould happen to Amer¬ ica, the world would colUipae. You are the hope of ' all Cbriatendom." The aafety of their republic is indeed the bulwark of civilisation, and we should guard It with sealoua care. Under oui constitution, liberty has flourished as the harveat of the virgin fleld, and material prosperity has come tc us In a degree never before known In all history, nor paralleled elsewhere on earth, but we learn of thoae who .seek to undermine our inatituUons. and hear voices preaching disloyalty to the flag. In a world torn by class, conrmierclal and social antagonism, tbe dangera of radical, anarchistic tendencies permeate every phaae of our nationa] activities.
There can be, and there must be no compromise with the red flag. Ve are willing to tolerate much In a great de¬ mocracy like ours. We oan perhaps ov¬ erlook many shortcomings on the jxirt of those who seek the protecfion and the opportunities of our shores, Init the alien who endeavors to evade the fall duty of citizenship when the nation is in the death throes of war, has f.-r- felted the privilege of enjoying our in¬ stitutions and competing with iho.oe whose manhood and patriotism iia.=
