She was the first woman to become u member of the Leagues .National Ex ecutive Committee, und is secretary of Lite League s Committee on Patriotism Through Education. Mrs Preston's message to the wo men of the country reads in full: “Proclaim Liberty." “'Proclaim Liberty throughout Ai.L THE LAN’Li unto u 11 tlie inhabitants thereof.' “These words were written about 1480 years before Christ, as part of the Law of Holiness in the liook of Leviticus. Our fathers inscribed them upon the Liberty Bell which called our mighty nation into life. “Today ‘all the inhabitants enjoy liberty, the Jew and the Gentile, the rich and the poor, the native and the alien-born, the weak and the strong. The old Liberty Beil is silent, for its voice tins been heard 'throughout ali the land.' “But Liberty is not safe, it is men aced along tile battle fronts of many nations, our own among them, and America requires a new motto for tier old Bell: 'Proclaim liberty through out ALL LANDS unto all the Inhab itants thereof.' Until liberty is safe in all lands, it can not be safe in our own. Hence the task to which Amer ica has reverently and unseltlshly ded icated herself. "Make Motto Real.” “The Fathers of this Republic, men of many races, with a common love of liberty, wrought Into law our ancient motto, thus giving liberty a chance to enlighten the world. “Today we, their descendents, are called upon to make real the new motto, and thus to give liberty the undisputed right to bless the world.

"Victory means pence anti safety for our children : defeat means hu miliation and practical servitude fur them: while a negotiated peace, with the military machine of Prussia un broken, means that everything in their lives must he subordinated to the task of preparing for another war with Germany, We can win now if Amer ica can be held steadfast and un swerving. and the women of America cub hold her steadfu.tL" _________ r—■ FIGHT AGAINST GERMAN PAPERS — National Security League Starts Crusade for Their Elimination, Together With the Teach ing of German. A vigorous campaign to tiring about \ j the elimination of tlie teaching of Ger man in tlie public schools of the coun | try and in obtain tlie discontinuance i of tin* publication of newspapers prim ed in German lias been launched by | the National Security League. To or ganize its effort for these ends tlie i League lias formed a Committee on 1 j Foreign Language and Foreign Press j j which will carry tlie light into every : nook and comer of tlie United States Tlie Committee is composed of Col. ' Charles E. L.vdecker, member of the I Hoard of Trustees of the College qf \ the City of New York and Chairman | of the National Security League's ; Board of Id rectors; Edward II Clark, Treasurer of tlie Security League; Ernest <'.

McElroy, Educational direc tor of the National Security League j under leave of absence from Pritieeton University, where be is bead of the Department of History and Politics. Stop Advertising. The principal basis of the Commit tee's campaign against German news papers will tie ihe obtaining of the dis continuance of advertising in them. Col. Lydeeker's committee lias laid tlie following plan of campaign before the Chairmen and Secretaries of all the 281 branches of the Security League: •‘There is no immediate need to have laws enacted to suppress tlie i foreign language dailies. In (owns where there is a strong patriotic senti ment a hostile minority should be per suaded by a clear and forceful expres sion of tlie views of tlie majority that ours must l>e, from this time forward, u one language nation "See Our Mistake.” ' if a community will not support a newsdealer who ha idles tlie daily pa pers printed in foreign tongues It can thereby force him to deni only in Eng- j lisli language papers. ''Recognizing a general willingness to be patriotic and the rapid acqui escence from many tjuarters to compel the use of English dailies, we urge reasonably active measures on tlie part of the brunches of tile League. ,Ius ti ’e requires tills, for the fault does not lie wholly with tile alien We have failed tiiilierto to provide the inaebin- j cry of education which tlie welding process required. We have eounte- I tu need and even encouraged the Idea ! of preserving linquistie and racial gr nips in our midst. At last we see our mistake, and we must correct It as speedily as justice wl'l allow. 'But we inesl not forget, and we must not allow alien enemies to for get. that tins is a time of war. tjuiek processes of producing unity are justi fied by tlie peril of those institutions which we hold in trust for till human ity.
