word American moans some
thing more than the mere accident of
birth In tho United States. It denotes
loyalty to certain principles. Some of
the best Americans in this country are
men of foreign birth. A mpn's coun

we talk of America for Americans, we
mean America for all who are loyal to
the principles upon which our Ameri
