''Merlin Elmer
 Palmer Post"
 Is Name Chosen
For Local Branch of the
 American Legion
In Honor of FormerWr Wrangell Man Who Died a Hero
 on Foreign Soil

A tentative organization of a post of the American Legion was formed in Wrangell last Sunday afternoon. The proper blanks having arrived. the eX-service men met in the Wrangell hotel and an application for a charter was made in regular form.
 The matter of an appropriate name for the local post was brought to the attention of the meeting, and it was voted that the Wrangell organization should be known as Merlin Elmer Palmer Post.
 Merlin Elmer Palmer made the supreme sacrifice Somewhere in France" on October 6, 1918, He was not enlisted from Wrangell, but being identified with the town, and having died a hero on foreign soil, the organizers of the local post were unanimous in wishing to honor his memory by naming the local post for him. A copy of the minutes of the meeting were ordered sent to Merlin Palmer's father in Nebras- ka.
 It was Merlin Palmer's inten- tion, had he lived, to return to Wrangell as soon as the war was over, He was a brother of Orville c. Palmer, proprietor of .he Wrangell Electric Light & Power company.
 Early last March Mr. Orville c. Palmer of Wrangell received the following communication giving an account of the death of his brother:
 In Germany, Jan. 3.-Your let. ter ot November I7 10 the comman- der of the Seventeenth in re Merlin Palmer has been received. As l was a special friend of Merlins the clerk referred the matter to me.
 I was with Merlin at the time of his death, and l know that there was absolutely no suffering, as he was killed instantly. We were in a small hole together on the 9th of October where we had made an at- tack on October {. We were un- der heavy shell fire.
 I have Merlin's pocket-book, gold knife and ring. A Y. M. C, A. lady in Paris had his camera and leather bound diary book. Merlin left these things with her with the understanding that in case of his death they were to be sent to his people in the States. 1 will send his things that 1 have the first op- portunity.
 am very sorry tQ state that l have DO way of knowing the exact location of Merlin's grave as he was buried on the field.
 am glad to say that l was a good friend of Merlin's. We had been together always from the time we enlisted until his death. He was good Christian boy and a good soldier, and set a good ex= ample to all his associates,
 would appreciate hearing from you on receipt of this. am,
 Yours sincerely,

to criticism of motives and inter- pretatieps of purpose that are far from just or accurate.
 Commander D'Olier has been smoothing out these wrinkles. He explains that the Legion holds no menace for any class of citi- zens, being made up, itself, of all classes. It is centralizing it's ef- forts along certain definite lines. It is interested in getting jobs for returned veterans, and taking care of the disabled men through oecupational direction. It is vi- tally interested in the doctrine of military preparedness for the United States, and it is deter mined to make America 100 per cent American, and the years to come. It intends to sustain law and order, and it will oppose any change in the government of the United States by violence.
 The Legion has assumed a fine, patriotic duty in its determina- tion to work for the education of the immigrants and alien resi- dents in the principles of Ameri- canism. It intends to inculcate among these the basic American principle that the interests of all the people are above those of any special class or section of the peo- pie. And finally, the comman- der of the Legion announces that the purpose of his organization is to deal with the existing unrest and its causes in a common sense and patriotic manner.
 Give the people all the facts in the case," says boiler. Ed ucate those who do not know what America really and fearless ly stands for-and then common sense, just American common sense, will work out the problem of our salvation
 Propaganda encouraging unrest has had little organized opposi- tion in the past, and it has been allowed to continue, practically unopposed, to the detriment of the whole nation. It is high time the other side of the question was presented to those who need it most, and in the performance of this duty the American Legion will render a national service no less important than the service the members conferred upon the country as soldiers and sailors in the line of duty.
