LEGION MEN ON STRIKE DUTY
Ex-Scrvice Boys Aided in Maintaining Order In Recent Disturbance at Denver. Colo.

American Legion men have again played part in maintaining law and order during strike. without taking part in the controversy. During the disturbance in Denver which accom- panied the tramway walkout, Legion naires extended their assistance In directing traffic. patrolling the resi- dence district and doing general guard duty. In the course of this service one Legionnaire was atttacked by thugs and badly beaten.
 The Legionnaires were moblIzed for duty immediately following receipt of an appeal from Governor Shoup X statement was issued declaring that the Legionnaires twill be used In no capacity except the maintenance of law and order In the community. and not In any manner bearing upon the controversy between the tramway con- pany and its employees"
 That this decision was adhered to is indicated in editorial comment by Den- yer newspapers which complimented the veterans on their usefulness, The American Legion made 1t perfectly clear that IL was out for the purpose of maintaining law and order" said one paper. while another asserted that "Denver owes him (the Legion man) an everlasting debt of gratitude"
 A number of persons were killed and injured in riots during the strike.
