AND GREAT BRITAIN JOINED winston Churchill Declares Old Prejudices Have Been Replaced by Better Under standing of Mutual Purpose By WINSTON CHURCHILL $Athor ef "Richard Carvtl," "Tht CH," R' on "The riHSEr copytlsnt. iBlii ui Nw npuie mwi citroc. (.oprntni, ivn, in i-udiio i,air wompiny .? n Following is the fourth of a series Tyi'nAf''jhtlngutshed American author, dealing , , ' Churchill shows that it is not only the tut a common purpose in the cause of democracy that has brought the United States and Great Britain together to fight shoulder to shoulder in the world conflict. I it THAT famous phrase of Lord Salisbury's, "We shall muddle through somehow." tho methods of Anglo-Saxon democracy In war were concisely expressed. Shortly after my arrival In Washington I was Invited by Mr. Balfour to call on him, and wo ! began to discuss the peculiarities of both our nations; nor did he- exclaim, like his tVunopVeep'er compatriot of the seventies when he saw "Uncle Tom's Cabin" for the "i' "first time, "How unlike the home life of our dear Queen!" His vision went deeper, and ' what he said was, "How your people remind me of our own! We have the same ' fault, and the same virtues, ond when I set foot on American soil It was hard to . realize, except for a difference In the material environment, that I had left Kngland." In this statement I found a striking confirmation, from a source to be respected, of ft contention now gaining scientific verification, that those who come to our snores from the continent of Europe become Americanized and Anglo-Saxonired. ANGLOPHOBIA STILL PERSISTS That a prejudice against England still exists in the minds of certain Americans ta on indubitable fact, though It is safe to say, as we come to a better undertandlng ef this war, as' Americans and British fight in it side by side, that the prejudice will rapidly disappear. It is easily understandable among Americans of Irish blood, f although all of these are by no means Imbued with It. That England would like to olvo the Irish problem goes without saying but the question as to whose child Is Ireland would stump a Solomon. Does she belong to the Nationalists, the Ulsterltes, or the Sinn Feins' And may not the three tear her to pieces between them? It is not, ot all events, a question to be decided in America but new and common human pauses alone can eradicate past misunderstandings, persecutions and wrongs. The age is vibrant; and day by day new signs and wonders appear, crowding one upon another. I stood on Pennsylvania avenue while triumphantly between the victor's columns marched tho remnant of the men in gray all that are left of them. And as I looked across the tree-shaded lawn to that beautiful house, stately yet simple, the home of our Presidents, I thought of Abraham Lincoln, of tho burden bo bore, of the agooy which In silence he suffered there; and I remembered how his great heart went out to these men who in their youth so nobly had fought for a lost cause, and to their wives and children, their crippled and their dead. And yet 1 knew that the cause was not lost, that in the mysterious economy of the Spirit no cause can perish but Is fused with the Cause of Causes, that Its light may burn the brighter for all mankind. These men had not fought, nor their brothers died, In vain. An(. tho CJethsemane of our great President had its meaning a meaning as bright now as the June sunlight that fell on tho Stars and Stripes and the Stars and Bars, on the Tricolor and on the Banner of that great civilizing Empire on which the sun nover sets, whose awakening drum beats are heard around the world. And the folds of all flutter and mlnglo together In Washington today. What Is the presage? Are Jealousies nnd distrusts, bickerings, tariffs and war of petty national prides to bo eternal, or aro all to go marching down the wide avenue to brotherhood? There are those who say that wars will never end, but let us at least believe and act as if this were the last, though the greatest; let us highly resolve. If they must be fought, that our swords shall be drawn against blindness and Ignorance and lust, for right eousness. WHAT SCHOOL HISTORIES HAVE DONE As a great Frenchman said, "Tout comprendre o'est tout pardonner" "to under stand all Is to pardon all." But there are moments when, though understanding, we must fight. Yet we can exclaim when we see a Hlndenburg or a Hohonzollern, "There, but for the grace of God, goes I!" It Is a queer age when one is thankful that an accident of birth and environment did not make him an emperor or a king or a magnificent, powerful brute in epaulets, but Just a plain American citizen. And this is no Pharisee's prayer, either. What .we used to call sin and prejudlco aro now revealed largely as the reiults of an unscientific education. So with the prejudice against the British stamped deep In some American minds; school books taught us that Albion was perfidious, that tho Stamp Tax was the greatest tyranny ever perpetrated. Hence, when we were boys, we fought against red coats, nnd sow we men, the little grooves made when our brains wero soft have become like ruts In a dried road of clay. 1 We think the British are "stuck up," Just as tho Kansan thinks a New Yorker "Stuck up" and tho kind of New Yorker he has In mind probably Is. The Kansan thinks of New York in terms of the celebrated Four Hundred, tho American thinks of Britain In terms of Lord North and George III, of Lord Palmerston and Dun dreary and the landed aristocracy, and never in terms of Burke or Fox or Cobden, o? Bright and Victoria; he forgets that, during our Civil War when the British mills were unable to get cotton, the starving mlllworkers went to their employers and declared they were willing to take their share of the suffering If human slaves could be set free. We are apt to foi. t that democracy, too, Involves responsibility, world responsi bility that a democracy cannot live unto itself alone. And the plain fact is that we have allowed a large part of our responsibility to rest on the shoulders of others; on the shoulders, Indeed, of the British Empire. Without making any reflection on the personnel of our navy, or Its efficiency, in size It has been wholly Inadequate for our duties and needs. If It had not been for the existence of the British navy, the Monroe Doctrine would have been a dead letter long ago; and Germany would have satisfied her craving for national expansion by walking into Mexico or South Amer ica. It is easier to understand this now that her plans have been unmasked, now that her recent offer to Mexico has been made public. Britain commanded the seas; and on the surface of the seas today her fleet stands between us and a superior German fleet. If she Is starved into surrender, we shall nave to tacUlo the German fleet alone. COMMON AIMS AND INTERESTS Now an entente between nations Is like a friendship between Individuals, it is not founded on sentiment alone, but on common alms and common Interests. Senti ment, in the form of proper understanding and mutual appreciation, plays an essen tial part. What some of us have not been able to see because of our prejudices ts precisely that Britain and the United States have common interests and common aims, as well as a common literature, law and tradition. From that day In 1859 when Joalah Tatnall weighed anchor and went to the help of the sorely-pressed British squadron, uttering the now famous phrase, "Blood Is thicker than water," the relationship between the two naval services has been unique.AVill. blood may be thicker than water; but tradition, a common point of view, a growing democratic sense of responsibility toward the helpless and back ward of the world which Is Anglo-Saxonlsrrt Is thicker than both. The British Admiral Chichester felt It in Manila Bay when he warned the Germans to keep out of that fight as may be read in Admiral Dewey's biography. Otherwise this war against Prussian frlghtfulness would have been waged and won by the Anglo-Saxon democracies In 1898. In 1905. when those justly proudf were on their way around Bronson, a radio message was accidentally picked up at sea giving the details of Chi chester's funeral, to be held that afternoon at Gibraltar. Boilers were fired, the cruisers steamed eastward at full speed, the American ships and sailors arrived in time to pay a nation's tribute to the man who had befriended us in the hour of need. BRITISH SECRETS AT UNITED STATES' DISPOSAL .;, It was about this time an occurrence of even greater significance, as measured by present-day results, took place in the eastern waters of the Pacific, where our China squadron and a British fleet were lying side by side. William S. Sims, now ia vice admiral and In Great Britain, was a lieutenant; Admiral Sir Percy Scott, I think, a young commander. And Scott had originated an Idea that was to revolu tionize the system of naval gun practice. Ho gave It freely to Sims, who reported It to Washington, where it was lost in the sands of bureaucracy. Not hearing from Washington, Sims, risking his professional neck, reported It direct to President Roosevelt, who characteristically ordered him home and put him in complete charge of the target practice of the navy. And as a result, the efficiency of the target prac tice increased in a short time 1000 per cent. I shall have more to say about this iyj,?matter, and how it has raised our navy to the very front in accuracy, Sims con ?? tlnued to make improvements of his own, and twice was Invited to confer with the British Admiralty while the subsequent inventions of Sir Percy Scott were also put at our disposal. Later on, when Sims, as a reward for his service, was as a com ,, mander given command of a new battleship and went to England, with a full knowl- V . jutpa f.f ntiK ,V,1f cn tlrtnn in ft RrlttaVi nfflpr , vHti"'t the priceless value to the world of the tradition for which both nations stand, he lv' '"'.made in a speech at the Guildhall the famous statement that, If the existence of - vBrltaln were threatened, America would spend her last dollar and shed her last drop ." of blood. The prediction was made with a sailor's frankness, a sailor's generosity A' yea, and with a sallor'K foresight. He was reprimanded, of course almost dismissed from the service. Today America' has tho prediction true. " JENKINTOWN HIGH SCHOOL mn -T ATVTI VU TffrmTVV.'H 1U UlUUVUmu ywvjwt t.

Mrs. Hardney was leach ing for the girl when Mrs. Brown an nounced that the babe's clothes belonged to her.

Army Officer Awards Honors at Pennsylvania Military College Brigadier General Carroll A. Devol, of the United States army, came from Wash ington In service uniform to review the Pennsylvania Military College cadet corps In Chester today Alumni Day and to make the honor awards for a year that has surpassed any other In the number of sharpshooters that have qualified for gold bars. Central Devol was graduated from Pennsylvania Military College In 1878. Because every sharpshooter and marks man among P. M.

A salute of thirteen gun from tho col lege battery of three-Inch pieces welcomed General Devol when he rode upon the cam pus. A spirit of "hero worship" pervaded the green. It was General Devol who had charge of the transportation of General Otls's troops to tho Philippines In the Spam Ish-Amcrlcan War and It was he who di rected the relief work In San Francisco after tho great fire. The battry that P.red the saluto was commanded by Captain Lewis Morey, 17. S. A., and hero of Carrizal, who completes his service at P. M. C. tomorrow and leaves Chester to Join his regiment.
