Americanization and Publication

THE JOHN O'HARA SOCIETY

On November 23, 1929, publication of "Americanization." The New Yorker. Delphian.

"I wonder if I said that the Orange County Afternoon Delphian Society has been neglecting a patriotic duty . . . . The patriotic duty we have been neglecting is just this: What about Americanization? . . . . Isn't it true that with all the good work we have done for the community, we have neglected our alien friends? . . . . Americanization is nothing more or less than helping the aliens that aren't naturalized by taking out citizenship papers . . . we can help them through all the stages of citizenship until finally the alien is a regular American, entitled to vote and entitled to the protection of the government. Entitled to everything but President."
