 Several days ago it became known that the local post of the American Legion had made request that they be given the use of the Montgomery Hose rooms. This letter was sent to the person in charge of such affairs. The matter was not brought to the attention of the com con council and at later date the Amer can band, through another member of the council, asked if the band might have the use of the rooms, offering to pay for the privilege. The matter was referred to the fire committee for investi- gation and report Finally action was taken whereby the members of the Amer ican band might know the decision soon. Upon the announcement of this news, members of the American Legion felt that they had not been given a square deal, as their request that haI been written first had never been considered. Wednes- day, letter signed by member of the American band gave the position of the men in the band The members had vot- ed unanimously to withdraw their request for use of the rooms in favor of the 1e- zion, at the same time thanking the city officials for what they had done on the bands behalf The members of the band were of the opinion that the veterans were entitled to their help in securing desirable rooms and no member of the band, knowingly. would stand in then way. This again places the mater be- fore the city, officials and before the members of the fire committee and their chairman, William E. Webber.
