session of the legislature.
Senator McCray states that the bill for
the memorial should be withheld for the
regular session, which convenes the first
week in January. 1921.
Senator McCray's statement follows:
am opposed to the memorial bill at
the present time and in its present form.
1t is decidedly premature.

SHOULD INCLUDE
OTHER VETERANS.
This bill does not expressly include
the Grand Army of the Republic, the
Spanish-American war veterans nor their
auxiliary bodies.
This provision should be made.
The bill does not provide that this
memorial shall be constructed under the
exclusive supervision of the American
Legion Itself.
II possible, this provision should be
made.
Of this memorial should be the exclusive
right and privilege Of the veterans OF the
world war.
INDIANAPOLIS should Immediately pre-
pare comfortable headquarters for the
American Legion and this can be done
by equipping the library building at
the corner of Meridian and Ohio streets
for the exclusive use OF this organiza-
ton.
Here the American Legion could work
out a comprehensive plan of its own.
This method would place this great
enterprise under the immediate control

OF the world war themselves, and am
ready and willing to vote for any rea-
