' 'BUFFALO. N. Y.. Nov. 12. The
American people are ajrowiua; impatient
with forsift-Q agitators and unless the
attitude chance the door that has al-
ways been open to Europe may be shut
Herbert' Hoover declared - Wednesday in
an address at the convention of Ameri-
cans of I'olish Ancestry.
"Mauy foolish ideas are being circu-
lated arunuK the fofeifn born population
of the 1'iiited Rtatra" Mr. Hoover said.
"Many uf those .foreign born are in-
teresting themselves lu the . destruction
of our primary institutions and defiance
at our laws. The American people are
fact losing patience with thia attitude.
It mv develop tint of th' that the open
door toward Kuropc will be in a large
pleasure closed. Jtut worse than thiH
there may develop out of it a prejudice
against every speaker ' a foreign lan-
guage in the United State. It creates
prejudice against extending aid to those
countries in Europe from which our
foreign born populations spring. i
Any needed reforms in the T'nited I
States he asserted would '"be carried)
out by those wuohc parents have grown
up amid our instil lit ions and those who
have become in sentiment and spirit a
part of our people."
"It is fortunate that the folia!) pOpulsf
tion of the Lmtcd states have been
but little influenced by these forms of
agitation." he continued "If a J'ole
exists who haH associuted himself with
the organizations that devote themselves
to the destruction of our institutions
that I'ole is not only disloyal to the
I'nited States but he is endeavoring
to paralyse the arm that is supporting
the independence of his own mother
country. Those who are dissatificd al-
ways can choose the alternative of re-
tiring to the countries from which they
came."

Criticism and Citizenship
It is the plain public duty of every
citizen to criticize proposed government
measures believed to be harmful.
Swift & Company is in a better position
perhaps than others to understand the
meat packing business in all its relations
to public and private interests even
though the others may have been
giving the subject a great deal of sincere
attention.
Swift & Company is convinced that interference
with its legitimate business function by governmental
agencies however well intentioned would be an injury
' to every man woman and child who wants meat to
eat as well as to the men who raise the meat and
to those who dress and distribute it
Maximum service that cannot monopolize because
of keen competition and lack of control over sources
of supply is furnished at a . minimum of profit a frac-
tion of a cent per pound from all sources.
Therefore Swift & Company is taking every legit-
imate step of citizenship to prevent such interference.
These advertisements are intended to help you
and to help Congress decide what is best to be done.
Mistakes are costly and apt to be harmful in these
trying times.
