Americanization
Week to Be Held
During March
Time to Do a Little Hurrah
ing for Our Own Country,
Says Chairman of . Citi- I
zeiibhip Committee.
"It's time to quit hurrahing about
countries across the ocean and start
a little hurrahing about our own
country," Dr. K. C. Henry, chairman
of the citizenship committee of the
Chamber of Commerce, said yester
day at a meeting of the committee.
"There's entirely too much interest
manifested by Americans in what is
going on in Europe and not enough
of what is happening in this country.
What we need is a propaganda cam
paign to get American minds on
America. We have little use here for
those whose minds are continually
on what is doing in Europe."
Dr. Henry presented plans to th
citizenship committee yesterday for
an Americanization week. Ameri
canization has become one of the
mam activities of the American .Le
gion, in accordance wiin its aims,
the legion heads have designated the
first week in March as "Americaniza
tion week."
During that week patriotic pro
grams will be held in every school
in Nebraska. Civic, commercial and
industrial clubs as well as social or
ganizations will be asked to have pa
triotic programs during the week.
Both the Omaha Chamber of
Commerce and the State Chamber of
Commerce have pledged themselves
to make Americanization week a
success in commercial and industrial
also
circles. Other organizations
have pledged their support.
Sunday, February 27. the day be
fore the opening of Americanization
week, Dr. Henry will ask all pastors
of the city io deliver sermons on the
life of some great American. Each
pastor will be asked to pick the char
acter in American history whom he
thinks represents his ideas of true
Americanism.
"By selecting subjects from men
who have helped make America,
there will be a series of true Ameri
canization addresses being delivered
at the same time," Dr. Henry savs.
Tuesday, March 1, John L. Web
ster has been asked to make a pa
triotic address under the auspices of
the citizenship committee at the
Chamber of Commerce.
