Americanize Natives First
, To the Editor of the Hvening Public Ledger:
Sir We hear so much talk about com
pelling all foreigners who come hero to
be forced Into becoming naturalized. My
opinion la that ou pan never mako Ameri
cans out of forcluwers by forcing them to
become American citizens. Signing a piece
cf paper does not chango a man or woman
or their foully from one country to another.
"Americanization" secnn to be based upon
the theory that this can be done, but It
can't.
What wo need Is Assimilation, education,
attention nnd good-will. Show the for
e'gner that this Is a country of good fellow
hlp and opportunity ond mako them Ameri
cans first by educating them In American
principles and Ideals. Then talk politics to
them Inst
Instead of that we usually call these
migrants "squaro heads" nnd we lgnoro
and dismiss thorn ns "Ignorant for
tltrners," Yet you want them to become
citizens nnd mix In politics to help the
. vicious ami ignorant American politicians
In omo dirty work.
The foreigner win, comes to the United
States Is not a wealthy perton, nor tho edu
cated of his race. They stay at home. He
It of the poor, depressed, aupprcssed class
and often un exile. If ho makes a success
here he becomes a good citizen; If not ho
remains p. rebel, Communist, Socialist or
Bolshevist
Tet thoso who term themselves "100 per
cent Amerlcnns" do not asslHt these foreign
ers to lecome it success, but, on the con
trary, call them names, dlscourago them nnd
try their utmost to keep them down In an
economic and social sense.
My advice to theso 100 per cent Ameri
cans I to go after the Americana first-Seientj-flve
per cent of these Americans of
voting mo do not know what they are vol
Ins for. and cannot explain the difference
between the parties. Help the foreigner
and he will help himself and become a good
American citizen better than very many of
the natUc-born. A. fi. CAHILL.

High Prices and Waste
To the Editor of the livening J'uulfc Ltdoer:
Sir Isn't thero any way to get after whole
sale or commission merchants. both of fish and
vegetables? Somo of them keep up the prices
on both fish and vegetables' so high that the
poorer class of peoplo cannot pay tha price
atlej, and before they sell them at a lower
Price thev let them rot nnd send them to the
dump Shad denlrr. for Instance, yester
day were asking thlrty-nvo to slxty-five nts
Per pound, and today they were loading thera
en tho wagons to tho fertilizer plant.
Scrtsgy-looklng apples were selling at $1 to
50, anil tho final resort Is the dump also.
E" hoping thero may bo a way to get after
wholesale or commission merchants, I am,

tteve, a lawyer's opinion of the examination
questions.
I wish to state, firstly, that I had only a
common-school education, am married and
tho father of two children nnd that I am
shoveling stone at present for a living, I
locked over the list of questions. Romp
were, I admit, rather odd, but them were
but few eight, ten or twohe at the most
that I could not answer Instantly,
Mr. Edison's Idea, as far ns I can figure,
wa to get men of universal knowlodge. The
trouble with lots of people nowadays Is
they are experts on ono thing only, and If
they fall down on their line they aro kick
ing: about the whole world being wrong.
As far as law Is concerned, I don't doubt
thero are many questions Mr. E. cannot an
swer, and lots of lawyers aro In the same
class. They soon reach for their reference
books. Furthermore, laws are subject to
change, but Uoorgo Stephenson was the
rnltrond pioneer nnd shall always be known
as such, Hannibal was a former Kaiser
Wllhelm of Carthage, and will always bo
known as such. Ask the Greek bontblnck
who Leonldns was ho knows. Also ask him
who was I'lutarch. It Is a strange thing
to find how much some of our moat Ig
norant people really know, I have worked
with foreigners here and abroad, all kinds of
'em and find there aro many that know
mora of history, nrt, literature, geography
and science than many of our smart men.
I note It was decided that If a man could
nnswer all of the questions set forth by
Udlson he would bo dangeraus. Well, I'm
glad I can't nnswer them all. as I don't
want to be known as dangerous. I have
been complimented at times on my massive
arms nnd chest, and am known as an hon
est, hard worker,
I venture to say education did spoil tho
lalirer somewhat. I don't Imagine they
had much labor trouble 'way back when tho
I'yramlds were built, or the Chinese Wall,
or the Acropolis or the temple of Snchl.
hut I can't see where tho danger comes In
If a man ran quarry stone, lots of It. as
much and mora than tho average. What
narm is u ii mis man nas muaica astron
omy, mythology, archeology, physical
geography, history, art and literature, also
scleral languages, provldrfl he quarrljs the
rocks? Where Is the come-back?
Thero are many things, I'll admit, that
don't get a man anything, also don't cost
anything. Many people can't toll a !p
sparrow from an English sparrow, nor bur
dock from rhubarb. I oven noted somo time
ago an nrtlclo on ragweed or ambrosia. Tho
naturalist gave Its history and habits, but
added so far no use haa been nscrlbed to It.
Well. I did when I was a kid. After par
taking of green apples and water I was sure
to take ragweed next day, -Some people

Questions Answered
"To Carry Coals to Newcastle"
To the r.ditor ol the Evening Public Ledger:
Sir Will ou kindly Inform the writer
the meaning of the saying, "Like carrying
coals to Newcastle"! I". W. T.
Philadelphia, May 1R, 1021,
"To carry coals to Newcastle" Ig a prover
bial expression for unnecessary gifts or su
pererogatory favors, Nnwcnstle being the
greatest coal mart In the world. Analogous
expressions abound In every language:
To send owls to Athens Greek.
Tn glvo fruit to Alclnous (whoso orchards
were famous for bearing fruit alt the year
around) 'Latin.
To enrrj; oil to tho City of Olives
Hebrew. To carry pepper to Hindustan Persian.
To carry wator to .the sea CWmtin.
A familiar proverb In tho Middle Ages was
"To send Indulgence to Rome."
Solves Balloon Problem
To the Kditor of the Evening Public Ledger:
Sir Solution of balloon problem of "W.
P. B.": Let X equal height of balloon. This
forms half an equilateral triangle with the
first observing station. The base of this trl
anglo Is therefore one-third X times the
square root of 3; Hy the principle of
right triangles combine this with the one
mile given and you obtain the square root
of one-third X square 1 ns the base of the
trlanglo' tho second station makes with the
balloon.
Hy trigonometry:
X sine. BO degrees square root (one
third X rquaro 1) slno 40 degrees, whence
X.0.10 miles, height of balloon.

Ball Playing In the Streets
To the Editor of the Evening Public Ledger:
Sir Please tell me If boys havo a right
to play ball In front of any one's touso In
tho street or on the sidewalk, When a
ball comes over on a person's yard hns the
when you want
you need it. Quick pickup and getaway when
occasion suggests or emergency demands.
That's what you get in this season's still better
Atlantic Gasoline.
tYou can feel the difference !
The farther you travel; the longer you use
Atlantic; the more you give it the hill test, the
traffic test, the mileage test; the closer you
observe how little carbon it causes, and how
completely it burns
The more thoroughly will you be convinced
that today's Atlantic Gasoline is the cleanest,
liveliest, most powerful and economical motor
fuel you can use !
And that goes for trucks as well as passenger
cars. In trucks you need steady, sure-footed
power to the utmost and Atlantic is the "gas"
that will give it to you.
owner of tho property tha right to pick up
the ball and keep It, after he has warned
the boys to stay out? The yard Is fenced
In. P. 11. WILLIAMS.
Philadelphia, May IB, 1021,
There Is no law or ordinance on the sub
ject. Their right to play, however, does
not Include a right to Interfere with your
nrnnertv rlhts. The oassaae of a ball bver
,your fence and Into your yard could hardly
re cauea trespass, ana a sun lor aa.iuB
would not lie unless there was actual dam
age. It Is doubtful If you would have a
right to seize and confiscate the ball, and
even admitting such right. It would be Im
politic to do so, ns It might lnclto the boys
to' retaliatory measures.

nificance? W, S. L.

erties to many of the precious stones, Thera
