EXPLANATORY NOTE

This volume on Americanism and Americanization is offered as a means for further clarifying our national thought in regard to present vital problems. From the Elder Statesmen and writers of today essential excerpts are quoted briefly. These writings have not been readily accessible to many, and yet they should be known to all of us, native-born and new citizens alike, in order that we may all become better Americans.

The chapters on Americanism and Americanization are a digest of American philosophy in relation to those ideals and principles which inform American life. The chapter on Technic of Race-Assimilation is a compendium of practice, giving the details of assimilation-methods in education, industry, politics, and everyday living. The annotated Bibliography is a helpful selected list of books on Americanism and Americanization. The titles relating to Race-assimilation include all the available periodical references since 1900. The whole volume constitutes a reference book of unique value to everyone who believes in America as a world force for civilization and democracy as opposed to exploitation and autocracy.
