LEGION NOT MILITARY BODY
Aims and Objects Of Organization
Made Clear by Iemuel Bolles,
National Adjutant.

Numerous reports received from all
quarters Of the American Legion, show
that there is a misunderstanding on
the part Of many regarding the or
ganization, and particularly with re-
gard to its purpose along military
lines.
This misunderstanding has resulted
in the issuing Of the following state
ment, by LemueI Bolles, national ad-
jutant:
1T has been brought to my notice
belief on the part Of many that the
American Legion is a military organ
ization. OF course 1t is not. The
American Legion Is a civilian organi-
zation and membership does not affect
or increase liability for military or
| police service. We maintain our civil
ian status and our military obligations
| are the same as those Of all other cit
| liens.
1.-The organization has Interested IT.
self actively in the military policy Of
the country, not because we are a mill
itary organization but because we are
able from the inside to detect certain
mistakes and weaknesses in the mill
tary organization as now established.
Our work in this direction is but an
effort on the part Of patriotic citi-
zens to serve their country along lines
in which they feel they are specially
prepared to speak intelligently.
THE military policy Of the Amer
lean Legion was determined at the
Minneapolis convention and has beer
clearly defined by the military policy
committee there appointed.
"The American Legion is In favo
Of universal military training, but thu
national convention Of the American
Legion also provided, as condition
precedent thereto and as an essehtia
, safeguard thereof. for civilian control
, The convention recognized the fac
that a thorough housekeeping an

FAVORS SMALL REGULAR ARMY
National Organization Supplemented
by Large Citizen Army 10 Ideal
Sought by Legion.

A small regular army supplemented
by a large citizen army Is the ideal
sought In the American Legion Army
Reorganization bill (Senate Bill 3792)
to the which the support Of the legion
Is pledged through its national legls-
lative committee in accordance with
resolutions adopted at the Minneapo-
lis convention.
The provisions Of the bill may De
summarized as follows:
The large citizen army would De
composed Of all young men between
the ages of eighteen and twenty-one,
who would take four-months' course
I'm intensive NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.. cd
ucational and military.
Veterans of the war would not De
called upon to serve these four months
or to take any other training. although
provisions probably would be MADE
| to accept veterans who volunteered 10
assist In the training program.
Young men could elect, II they so de-
sired. to substitute for the four
months of intensive training an en-
listment of three years in the National
Guard. This National Guard service
would be under rules specified by the
federal government requiring weekly
drills and certain standards OF pro-
fciency.
The training proposed would not IN
terfere unduly with the regular oc.
cupations Of the young men enrolled
because there would be both winter
and summer periods Of which they
could make their choice. This wouic
enable the youth working on north
ern farm to select the winter uain
ing period and be assigned to train
ing camp In the south. In any event
he would be away from home a com
paratively short time and ne woui'
not be absent during the harvest sea
son.
Furthermore, young men would o
placed in training according to tn
service for which they are best suited
For example, negro youths Oh III

ions. In these they would acquire IN
rudiments of drill, but. more impo'
tant. would learn habits OF right III

A careful selection of officers woul

against any abuse Of authority. on
GERS unsuited for training Wort
whether they belonged to the regui'
army. the national guard or the r
serve corps, would not be assigne
to training camps. Those developiI
|. traits that impaired their usefulne
would be relieved. Civilian once
would have an equal share with re
ular army officers in the training pr
gram.
Advocates Of the system OF col
pulsory training say that small re
Mar army together with a large Ct
zen army as contemplated would CO
less than even the regular army
enlistment. which would be set
under the bill which the house OF II
resentatives now is considering &c
ously.

A Touch of Mischief.

There had been a difference Of
opinion in the preachers family in
which six-year-old Elizabeth thought
she got the worst of it. So at prayer
time she was unhappy and resentful
toward the world in general and her
own ministerial family in particular.
But she knelt at her mothers knee as
usual and went through her usual eve
ming petitions. Finally she prayed
"Oh. Lord, make all the bad people
good"
Then as an afterthought she added
and, God, if you can, please make
all the good people nice. World
Outlook.

Much Proposed Legislation.

So many ideas have developed ID
congress as to what should be done Tor
the former service man. that Senator
Robinson of Kansas has proposed the
appointment Of a special joint commit
tee to keep tab on proposed legislation
of that nature. Some 1,3Oo measures
relating to insurance compensation
back pay. bonuses. homesteading PRIV,
ileges. home buying schemes. proposed
loans and many other matters OF IN
terest to those who served with tne
co,ors. have been introduced In the
present congress and referred to vari-
ous committees. The average Is al
most three bills per member for both
houses. Senator Robinson would have
three men from the house and three
from the senate appointed to slit the
wheat from the chaff in all such leg
| islation.

A Hearse Horse.

The man entered the cab and IN

residence near the cemetery. On dis
mounting, he gave the cabby eighteen

to the horse:
