By Associated Press.

of Major General Leonard Wood in the
newly organized American Legion,
which contemplates q first line reserve
for national defense, to consist of $780,
600 former soldiers, sailors and nation
al guardsmen, to take their places in
the fighting line IN the event of a ma
tronal crisis, it was pointed out by
friends to-day, consisted in the fact
that the plan had been submitted to
him and that after he had looked it
over he gave it his approval Us u
good thing He approved it just as
he would rifle range or drill ground
about which a citizen might consult
HIM prior to offering it to the govern
ment
General Wood has been called upon
by the War Department to make an
investigation and report back to the
department all the facts he obtains re-
garding the legion. Such report, it is
expected, will go forward in few days.
Captain Gordon Johnston, aid to Gen
eral Wood, who issued the statement
in which the organization of the Amer
lean Legion was publicly announced, in
a statement to-day said his connection
with the legion is of purely advisory
nature.
The American League TO limit arma-
ments is opposed to the legion and has
sent telegraphic protest signed by
Bishop David II. Greer and others Of
its members to President Wilson.
"We protest against the activities
of officers of the army" the protest
says, Gin organizing civilians and at
tempting to influence public opinion in
regard to the military forces of the
country
