MILITARY TRAINING

When the attention OF former Con-
gresham Thomas w. Miller. chairman
OF the National Legislative C>mmitiee
of the American Legion, was called to
an article appearing recently In a
newspaper concerning the attitude OF
the American Legion toward universal
military training. he stated that when
he appeared before the Senate and
House military committees lately, In
advocacy OF universal military training,
he did so as representative or the
one million or more members or the
American Legion, who had unqualified
endorsed universal military training at
their national convention In Mime
spolis.
The rank and flle OF the American
Legion was represented at Minneapolis,
and the time-worn argument that the
American Legion Is controlled by OIL
GERS Is shown 10 be misleading when
one considers that there were only sew
