AMERICANISM
We stand for an Smeriosning, that
allows no American for private gain,
to embroil us in war with any nation.
That allows no hungry children in
a la :d overflowing with food.
That allows no long hours of labor
while plenty can be provided with
short hours of labor.
The People’s College News.
That allows no stunting of child
life by mill, mine and factory, while
idle adults seek the boon of work.
* ®* =® * *
That allows no idle shirker to ap-
propriate the fruit of others’ toil.
That allows no man or set of men
in any office to plunge our nation into
a needless war.
That denies the right of the nation
to interfere on behalf of the properly
of of our citizens in any other lands.
That denies the right of our enemies
within our borders ‘to make enemies
for hs without our borders.
That demands to know all the facts
.| upon which out relation with other
nations are based.
That will fight no war for reasons
upon which we have not passed.
That demands of government that it
serve all the people equally.
That will follow no flag for an igno-
ble purpose.
That stands for a responsible, think
ing citizenship,
That stands for no blind obedience.
That stands for our country for all
our people.
That stands upon the principle that
do unto othen nations as we would
they should do unto us, is the essence
of statesmanship.
