WAIT FOR IT Fancy work bazaar by Federated church ladies; Dec. 15. "Americanization" is a widely used term, the real significance of which is appreciated by but very few. To the larger number who use it, it means merely the naturalization of immigrants. To a much smaller num ber it means the education of Immi grants to the point where they can read and write the English language. Americanization of immigrants ia aomething far deeper than the mere formality of taking out naturaliza tion papera or their superficial edu cation in reading and writing. Ameri canization of immigrants means their acceptance of and belief in American policies and American institutions. It means their willingness and eager ness to uphold American laws. It means their placing this country and its welfare ahead of any other coun try. even the country from which they came. There never was a time when there waa greater need of real Americani zation than now. A study of tne cen aus statistics relative to our foreign population will startle anyone who haa not made himself familiar with the facta. In a half-a-dozen of our eastern and New England states ap proximately one-half tha total voting population is foreign-born. In some states this proportion exceeds one half. In half-a-dozen other states the foreign-born population constitutes such a very large per centt that they easily control the balance of power between the old political parties. Theoretically, at least, those who come to this country, come in order to avail themaelves of American in stitutions, American standards, of living, American opportunities, Ameri can wages. They do not come here in order to transplant to this country the conditions and policies from which they emigrated to this country. One would naturally suppose that these immigrants would readily sup port the policies and institutions which made this country an attractive place as compared with their home land. In a great many cases this is true, but in the majority of cases the contrary is true. They immediately begin to take sides in American poli tics, not from the standpoint of how proposed policies will affect this country but how they may affect for eign countries. They view the queation of a tariff not from the standpoint of American induatry and American wage, but from the standpoint of how a tariff will affect their "home country." They view the immigration law, the prohibition lawa, the courts, local and federal authorities and all poli cies affecting our foreign relations such aa the handling of the foreign debt, not from the angle of Ameri cans and how such policies work to I syilaM c.

The United States is ready to redeem all Victory Notes with the letters A, B, C, D, E, and F in the upper right hand corner. After De cember 15th these notes cease to bear interest. Bring them in and we will send them in for redemption. Many bondholders are starting sav ings accounts with this money. If they have a few dollars to spare, it can al ways be added. Or if they need the cash, it is here to meet the emergency. You've often felt more independent because you've had this Victory Note. Keep that independent feeling by hav ing a savings account in the Firt National Bank HEPPNER, OREGON the injury or the benefit of the United States, but from the angle of their native country and how such policies will affect their former country. Our foreign population can never be said to be "Americanized," until they have lost this foreign viewpoint in considering American policies. Moreover, until they are "Americaniz ed" in the real sense of the word, there exists a very grave danger of America's losing its national integ rity, its national individuality, if such a term may be used, and be coming as tersely expressed by Theo dore Roosevelt, a "polyglot boarding house." Unless there is genuine Americani tation of our foreign elements.St will be but a matter of a comparatively short time until this nation will be but little better than the countries of Europe and those who have come to this country to improve their condi tiona will And that they themselves have destroyed the very thing they most desired. The work of Americanization of our foreign elements, can be tremend ously accelerated by the refusal of political parties to appeal for the sup port of political blocs upon the basis of their particular nationality or the particular interest of their home country. For a political party to ap peal for the support of any foreign element upon any other ground than its policies will benefit that element in common with all Americana, ia to accentuate and perpetuate the foreign blocs which vote as foreigners rather than Americans. When any party appeals to cer tain foreign blocs upon the promise that it is a better friend of that bloc than the other party, it necessarily follows that it must resort to class or bloc legislation in order to redeem its promises, actual or implied. If the opposing party resorts to the same practice then we have the spectacle of the two great political parties en gaged in competition as to which can do the most for the foreigner, which can pass the more legislation pleasing to foreign countries, which cies. can be the less American in its poll There are a great many vital pro blems awaiting solution at the hands of the American people but it can scarcely be an exaggeration to say the most vital one is that of a real Amer icanization of all our foreign popula tion.
