I am as anxious. as is lie. to provide against tib utterance or distribution of disloyal sentiments through any sort of publication issued in the German langutig6. I asked my questionlo with one ptirticular thought in mind. I happen- to be familiar with a very wellestablished and highly loyal religious organization. which is probablydoing as miuich toward the Americanization of the foreign born of this Republic as is any agency in the United States. and I ani wondering if we would not defeat the purpose we have in mind if we undertake to go so far as this amendment proposes at this time. Quite apart from the prohibition on the religious organizations of this country. we have actually encouraged throughout the United States. particularly in my State. the publication of " foreignlanguage newspapers.
