A charge that foreign-born citi-1
zens of the United States are trying'
to levy political blackmail and to )
undermine the influence of the Na" !
tional Government was made by !
President Wilson in a flag day j
speech in Washington on the 14th. !
ins assertion sounaea me Keynote oi
one of the foremost issues on which
Via will fret hafnra tho mimt-rv fnr rp-

tstration to the bt. Louis convention.
Thtt Prooirlont cnnlro hafrtra a rrnwH
of thousands gathered at the foot of
the" Washington Monument, arter ne
had reviewed for five hours a great
preparedness parade at the head . of
which he himself had marched down
Pennsylvania Avenue. He declared
that not since the Civil War had it!
been tested as it now is being tested!
whether the Stars and Stripes stood!
for any one united purpose.
"There is disloyalty active in the
United States and it must be abso-
lutely crushed," declared the -Presi-
dent, speaking emphatically. "It pro-j
ceeds from a minority, a very small!
minority, but a very active and sub'j
tie minority. I
"It works underground, but it also!
shows its ugly head where we van
see it: and there are those at this
moment who are trying to levy a -species
of political blackmail, saying
'do what we wish in the interest of
foreign sentiment or we will wreak
our vengeance at the polls'. This is
the sort of thing against which the
American Nation will turn with a
might and triumph of sentiment
which will teach these gentlemen once
for all that loyalty to this flag is the
first test of tolerance in the United
States."
The President's words were taken
as an open challenge to foreign-born
Americans, who, he has learned from
foreign language . newspapers and
other sources, are opposing him for
reelection. - Officials close to him said
he was outlining his stand on what he
has determined to make a predomin
nt issue in his campaign.
While the Democratic convention
was being opened at St. Louis Mr.
Wilson devoted the entire day to the
flag day and preparedness demonstra
tion. Carrying a large American flag
he walked from the Capitol to the
White House at the head of more
than 50,000 marchers, including many
high Government officials, Civil War
veterans, employes of all the Govern
ment departments and of the local
business houses, companies or caaets
and National Guardsmen. Union and
C.rTf oHorat.A Veterans and Sons of
Veterans marched close together and
were constantly cneerea.
The Sons of Conieaerate veterans,
inr1nHincr rommands from Virginia
and Maryland, were grouped with the
smithpm societv or wasnmE'ion as
the "Sons of the South" and com
nncod a Hivisin.. of more than 1.000.1
They included Senators and Repre
sentatives and otner men oi prom
inence. Ernest W. Baldwin of Ro
annlro National Commander-in-Chief
of the' Sons of Confederate Veterans;
W. W. Olds of Norfolk, Dr. iarence
J. Owens, past commanders-in-chief,
anA Vverett. R Mann, commander of
the Washington camp, headed that
organziation. ,
The parade started from the Capi
tol grounds and as its head passed
the White House the President drop
ped out and took his place in the re
viewing stand. He was joined there
by Secretaries McAdoo, Redfield,
Lane and Wilson, Postmaster General
Burleson and Attorney General Greg
ory, who had marched at the head
of employes of their departments, and
by Secretary Lansing. As soon as
the last marchers passed the stand
intir the President went
to the Monument grounds, where
his address formed the principal part
of an hour's patriotic exercises.
The program began with a Na
tional salute of 21 guns and the ma
rine band played the Star Spangled
Banner, while a huge flag was drawn
slowly to the top of the white monu
ment, 555 feet above the ground.
cn(or,t Tancin cr nresided and in
introducing the President emphasized
the duty of present-day Americans to
preserve unsullied ideals handed down
by the founders of the Republic.

The whole convention of some 10,
000 of men, women and children
went wild. They shouted "repeat
it," and then the band played "Amer

and "Dixie." . '
The applause continued for 11 min
utes, and when a semblance of order
was again restored the vast audience
asked for Bryan. They yelled and
shouted for the commoner until Chair
man James finally promised that
they should have an opportunity to
hear the three times defeated candi

ticket as soon as he could be reach

All the railroads are cooperating

-Beginning June 2oth, Wrightsville
Eeach cars will be run P to the sta
tion tq meet all trains. Baggage can
be rechecked direct from Wilmington
to Wrightsville and will be put off
at local stations at the Beach near
the. boarding house or hotel desired.
Among the prizes which are t
be offered at the road convention is
a silver cup to the owner of the au
tomobile which travels the longest
distance in coming to the convention.
Other prizes are to the county lor
the largest number of delegates in
proportion to the distance; to
the city for the largest number of
dt legates in proportion to distance
from Wilmington and population; to
counties for the best exhibits, in
cluding pictures, maps, charts, ete.;
c!ii tc parties exhibiting the best
r.ad photograph.
Among those who are to address
the good roads convention at Wrights
ville is Dr. II. M. Rowe of Baltimore,
president of the American Automo
bile Association. Dr. Rowe has some
itorv in toroaf intr rlnta in TP trfl rti tt
the use of the automobile tax in
Maryland, and will undoubtedly give
us some ideas which will be of very
great value to the road cause in
North Carolina.
Mr. Henry Ford has been invited
to address the North Carolina good
roads convention, and ha3 not def
initely refused. An address from
him will be of great interest and val
ue to North Carolinians, as the Ford
is a very popular vehicle in thia
State.
Already 4,000 delegates have been
appointed to the good roads conven
tion, and it is believed that a great
many of these will go. Letters are
constantly being received from va
rious sections of the State say'nj
that automobile parties are being
made up to attend the convention,
special Pullmans are being arrang
ed for, and in some cases special
trains.
One feature of the convention which,
will be very pleasant for the dele
gates is a luncheon to be given by
the Carolina Metal Products Co. of
which Mr. George P. Galvin is man
ager. Mr. Galvin has sssisted in the
advertisement of the convention, and
is contributing a great deal to its
success. ..
will take enough interest to look af
ter the welfare of all the boys and
girls in the district. To be a school
committeeman means more than to
hold the office or at least should
mean more. I very often hear folks
say the committee in my district
don't seem to care how things go.
They don't take any interest in the
welfare of the school. All they do
is to sign the teacher's voucher.
One of the things for which the
Farmers' Union stands is a better
educated rural citizenship. This be
ing true, and knowing that the com
mitina Vina nniifVi to do with the suc
cess or failure of the school, I take
this method of urgine the patrons to
see to it that the right sort of men
compose the committees in the va
rious listricts.
Make it known who you want as
committeemen. Don't keen silent un
til the board has made the appoint
ment and then abuse tne Doara. u
vou don't make it known who is the
best men the board may not be in
position to know. You owe it to
your children to proviae me v
;ki fm- tnom in the wav of an
education then you owe.it to them
to see that the three men who take
the most interest m education anu
schools in your district serve as com
mitteemen. , .,
