It came toi us through no effort of our own but was ours merely by the accident of birth. We sacrificed nothing to gain what the men of Valley Forge;fought and froze and starved to gain . the right to be Americans. ; 'I . -J Thus accepting as a matter of course the boon ofxiti--V zenship, we have too bf ten taken just as casually the duties . that go with it the duty to take an active, intelligent interest inter-est in public affairs; the duty to vote with 'the' Riiblic welfare wel-fare in mind; the duty to give freely a reasonable measure of .co-operation in social matters: .'."''- . ' - , Since 1929 there has been a change. Conditions , have leen such as" to show even the indifferent that public affairs af-fairs really do matter. Circumstances have placed the : na- tiohal government on every man's doorstep, and interest in public - affairs has mounted: The -same thinghas become doubly true since Europe's long mismanagement has finally brought that continent once again to war. Now asnever -before, public affairs matter . v ; ' " ' It is jnspiring, therefore, to see new citizens flocking" 'to the courts to take the oath of allegiance to the government govern-ment of the United States. Anyone who has'1 had the least touch with the process of naturalization, and seen the glowing glow-ing eyes and upraised heads of those wnd take that oath . ' for the first timei knows how valuable the" great majority of these new citizens are to the Republic.' For the time has passed when passive acquiescence to thelaw is enough. The Republic needs active, loyal work in its Jbehalf as it has not needed xit for tnariy years. It needs' the firm, intelligent guidance that can come only from an alert, informed, loyal and determined citizenship. . It needs not blind and unthinking unthink-ing cannon fodder citizens, but free men and women who 'will gladly and .voluntarily playtheir part as eitizens-of a - free Republic. . ". - - - How long has it been since you, nativ'e-borrr American, 'have repeated the oath that new citizens?. It would not hurt every one of us thread it through and.accept, mentallyut consciously," th-responsi- bilities it implies. Here is that oath : '-sF-Mt -? :.'I do. solemnly declare, on oath, that-1 : will absolutely .and entirely renounce and abjure all allegiance and -fidelity " to any foreign prince, potentate', state, or sovereignty that I will support and defend the Constitution and Laws of the United States of Amerjcaagainst all ehemiesforeign and domestic, and .that I will bear true faith and alleglence to .the same. ; So help me God!" . ."

The real showdown, on' the arms embargo em-bargo fight is apt to come when amendments to the administration bill are offered on the floor of the Senate". , ". . . . V The administration1 leaders cfaini a solid majority for repeal of the fimbargo, as of today. But the bill is complicated and after all 1 the general debate is over-r-v which won't be for a little while yetat least half a dozen amendments amend-ments to various . provisions . will come up. . ., . . " . . 5 'A number of senators who are for; repeal of the embargo ' itself are not in favor of- some of .-the other propositions in the -bill. One item which is sure to', bring fireworks fire-works is , the .90-day credit provision provi-sion of the . cash-and-carry part of the measure. Andther is the strin-gentet strin-gentet of restrictions which the bill puts on American shipping. ,, Much may depend on tne ae eree to which the -administration is willing to. compromise on sucn points as these. It will undoubted ly lose some votes t wmcn u is nuw counting on unless such provisions are changed. Incidentally, each amendment that is offered will be accompanied " by a good "deal of debate which means that a final vote on' the bill, as a whole is still a considerable distance away.
