Now, in the first place, there was no reason why Italians or Spamards or Portuguese should. Erd: "dago** un- pleasant. It is merely a corruption of the Spanish Diego," Portuguese Thiago equivalent to the English James," and a common name in Southwestern Europe, particularly in
saint of the country. Originally fast- ened on Spaniards by English sailors, it was extended to cover Italians and Portuguese, and id this country has been applied clely to Italians. But though originally harmless enough, the term has come to be contemptu- ous. As such, Italians do not like it. And that is sufficient reason for not using it.
Derisive nicknames of any sort and the coriscious assumption of superior- ity that goes with the use of them are not only marks of ignorant vulgarity. Ebut are positively vicious in result A large part of the ill will that Mexi cans feel towards Americans is due to a bumptious, assumption on our part that Mexicans are an inferior race. In a similar way we have alienated the South Americans. It is only the ignorant provincial who asserts that his but race is beyond compare. The world has produced, and now pos sesses, several superior races, differ ing, but each excelling in some quali tics. Let those who assume that Latin-Americans
Are uncivilized examine the fact that though the United States has built one great city. New York, that we may be proud of, South America has created two, Buenos Ayres and Rio Janeiro, that Americans are compelled to admire.
As for the Italians, they are so great a people that they really ought not to rake notice when some ignora- mus publicly calls them "dagoes. They should consider the source, and when they fed the term in the speech of a United States Senator ler' them remember that Senators are not al- ways chosen for breeding, knowledge or breadth of understanding--San Francisco Chronicle,
