During the next five years the United States will have the chance 1.o become the greatest nation on the globe. She will be able to obtain and to hold the world's shipping and its trade. Can America afford to throw' away its chance? That is exactly what it is doing every day I ill! i that it allows the Reds to go up and down the country, spreading dis­ I content and sedition among the people. These misleaders of labor are § I the greatest influences for disorganization and destruction of the social ~ organization, that there are today. The cities are the greatest breeders ! of this trouble. The foreign element has been allowed to herd into cer­ I tain sections of the cities occupied solely by its own countrymen and this element has made effort to assimilate with American citizens. Their modes and standards of living ancl of thinking are the same today as they were in their own homeland. Why did they emigrate? Because they were dissatisfied at home and they thought that this country was full of golden opportunities, which would be theirs merely for the ask­ ing. When they found nut they were not, they were again dissatisfied and filled with hatred, and they bred this discontent among themselves and then spread it abroad. Their little single-track minds could not see anything but hatred toward all other peoP.les who were happy and con­ tented.

It is natural for fnreign-born peoples to prefer to be with their own kind in a strange land, but the congestion and herding in certain sec­ tions of cities will have to be prohibited, once and for all time. In the emigration to these shores in recent years, there have been far too many of the -riff-raff of Europe. Their own countries are only too glad to • dump them on the <>hores of this country, and now a policy should be adopted and rigictly enforced to dump them right back where they came ±rom. Entrance to this country has been far too easy in the past, our immigration laws have been far too lax, and absolutely no surveillance has been kept over the alien after he has left Ellis Island. One of the least desirable of the foreign classes who come to these shores, is he who enjoys all of the benefits of thi'S country, who lives here for several years, raises a family possibly, and ·yet never even takes out his first citizenslup papers. That method of doing business is one of the lowest and meanest known to the civilized world. It is comparable to accepting a man's hospitality for a long timt> and not even thanking him for his 'kindness This country will welcome any alien who is willing to adapt ihmself to the prescribed standards and ·who will publicly signify his in­ tention of living up to those standards. Honest healthy-minded men are alwavs wanted in any country, no matter what country might have ' bter, tneir birthplace.

The principles of Bolshevism, for which the Red element stands in

this country i~, a reversion to conctitions prior to the birth of modern civilization, when brute power wrested whatever was desired from the opssessor. It is sinister and it is an aggressive war maker. February, 1920 THE VETERANS' JOURNAL Page Nineteen
