Corporation of theUnited States Shipping Board:  \n\"There can be no doubt of the value that willacerue to our industries and to our nation throughthe Americanization of forcign-born workmen.Our failure to teach employees to speak the Eng-lish language leaves a door open to many evils.This is particularly true now,when many sortsof destructive propaganda are being circulatedand when foreign enemies are trying to under-mine our system of Government.  \n\"It has been proved repeatedly that the Ameri-canization of workmen has a stabilizing effect.Itshows quick results in the reduction of laborturnover and tends to create a spirit of co-opera-tion among the workmen which is impossiblewhen they do not speak the same language.\"  \nF.A.SEIBERLING,President,the GoodyearTire &Rubber Co.,Akron,Ohio:  \n\"About five years ago we established a rulein our factory that we would employ no one whocould not read,write and speak the English lan-guage.We established at the same time dayand night schools for teaching English to for-eigners,and made a ifferential rate of 10%be-tween foreigners unable to speak English andthose who could.We have conducted theseschools at our own expense with excellent re-sults.The rules have been adhered to up tothe present time,but are now relaxed on ac-count of the great shortage of labor.As soonas conditions become normal,they will be rein-stated.  \n\"We believe thoroughly in the idea of Ameri-canizing our alien population,and it is our mis-fortune in this war that this work was notinaugurated years ago.\"  \nJOHN F.MILLER,President,WestinghouseAir Brake Co,Pittsburgh,Pa.:  \n\"The Westinghouse Air Brake Companymaintains a Club for foreign men,women andchildren.The plan s educational in every aspect.The English and Citizenship school is not moreprominent than the Reading Room,Gymnasium,  \nBaths,Motion Pictures and Music School.Themost important feature of the Club is the per-sottal relationship between the community and ClubStaff.On the average.200 men attend the Eng-lish and Citizenship School every year.Our aimis not naturalization,but Americanization.Never-theless,on the average,50men become naturalizedannually.\"  \nW.A.C.SMITH,President,The Ohio QuarriesCo.,Cleveland,Ohio:  \n\"It seems to me that there can be no differenceof opinion as to the advisability of Americaniz-ing our labor,not only because of the resultingincreased efficieney,safety and harmony,but also,and especially,because it will result in an ap-preciation of our country's institutions andideals heretofore as foreign to millions of ourworkers as the languages by which they expressthemselves.  \n\"Let us see that every one in this country isAmericanized as quickly as is practicable,or sentback from whence he came.”  \nWILLIAM C.REDFIELD,Secretary of theUnited States Department of Commerce:  \n\"The work of Americanization of
