HEADQUARTERS OPEN
Charles A. Moore Will Represent the
American Legion.

Headquarters for the American Lee
eion, an organization for the purpose
of listing and classifying available
men for the army or navy, has been
opened in Topeka. Charles A. Moore,
who has offices in the New England
building was recently appointed an
advisory member of the Legion and
he will have charge of the work in
this section of the state. There are
only 800 advisory members and they
are scattered throughout the United
States.
The United States government has
no record of the present addresses and
qualifications of its hOnorably dis
charged soldiers, sailors and marines
nor has it information of available
men trained in the various occupa-
lions essential to the conduct of mod
ern war 1t is for this reason the
American Legion was organized in
New York with such men as TheO-
dore Roosevelt. William H. Taft, Elihu
Root Jacob NJ. Dickinson and Henry
l.. Stimson as members of the council.
AS soon as Mr.. Moore gets the Gre
dentials and necessary application pa
pers he will start to work getting
available men lined up for Uncle
Sam In this manner it is expected
that q citizen reserve of great strength
will be built up in this country.
