The Progressive platform adopted at Chicago on June 8. 1916. contains as splendid an exposition of Americanism as can be found anywhere in our literature. My attention has never been called to any pronouncement of the Communist Party that comes within hailing distance of it. Let me read a few excerpts from that platform: As members of an international community we are subject to certain basic duties: To secure the rights and equal treatment of our citizens. native or naturalized. on land and sea. without regard to race. creed. or nativity. To guard the honor and uphold the just influence of our Nation. To maintain the integrity of International law.
