BACK TO PLAIN "NISTER."

(From the Pittsburgh Chronicle Telegraph
 The more that is heard of the plans and personnel of the American Legion, the organi- zation of soldiers who fought in the great war, the more general the popular approval. Its leaders seem to be guided by sound common sense. One feature that stands out is its sturdy democracy. This was shown at the initial meeting in St. Louis. No distinctions were drawn between those who had been fcers and those who had served as privates in the ranks The differences that were neccs- sary, and so recognized during the period oi active service, were promptly cast aside when. these brave men met i'll civil life. Now come word that the executive committee of the k zion will recommend to the forthcoming na- tional convention at Minneapolis the disuse of all military titles in referring to officials of the order. "It is the purpose of the Amcri can Legon,' says Henry D. lindsIey, mot only to cease using military titles in the rec ords and proceedings of the national organi- zation, but to foster the same action on the part of the state branches and local post> which are now being formed turnout the cOun- try. Furthermore, the custom handed down from the civil war of preserving an offi- Cer's military rank after he had returned to civil life will be discouraged"
 That last remark indicates a radical de- parture from American customs, but a whole some one. It will tend also to discourage the reprehenSible habit of attaching military titles to persons who never had the slightest claim to them. One IS reminded in this connection of the British general who, upon the occasion of Colonel Houses first visit to london after we entered the war; sought his expert opinion on certain military problems. It would be re- freshing should the American Legion succeed in carrying out the reform which it's execu- tive committee now favors.
