Women Resent Having
Traitors Kiss Flag

The following resolutions were adj
opted by the Degree of Honor at the
Eastern Oregon District Convention
held .June-3 and 4 at Heppner:
Whereas. it has been the custom Of
late in this country to compel traitors,
pro-Germans and enemy aliens to kiss
our flag, and whereas, we the patriotic
women of America feel that the said
custom is an insult to our flag and
that such traitors should not be al
lowed to pollute and profane our flag
by the touch of their lips, but rather
should they be compelled to kiss its
shadow in the dust. Therefore, be it
resolved that we. the Degree of Hon
or. of Eastern Oregon in convention
go on record as .unalter-j
ably opposed to the practice beford
described. And be it further resolved,
that we viii use our Influence to op-
pose the same and voice our protest
on every occasion.
Be it also further resolved. that
these resolutions be presented to the,
National Convention and placed OH
the records of the local convention.
