FAV0RS SMALL REGULAR ARMY
National Organization Supplemented
by Large Citizen Army Is 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 1892
to the which the support of the legion
is pledged through its national legis-
lative committee in accordance with
resolutions adopted at the Mlnneapo-
lis convention.
The provisions Of the bill may be
summarized as follows:
The large citizen army would be
composed of all young men between
the ages of eighteen and t~wenty-one,
who would take a four-mOnths' course
in intensive training-vOcational, ed
ucatiOnal and military.
Veterans OF the war would not be
called upon to serve these four months
or to take any other training, although
provisions probably would be made
to accept veterans who volunteered to
assist in the training program.
Young men could elect. If they so de-
sired, to substitute for the four
lloilliiN vi ihitiiNiNt ai''
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-
ficiency.
The training proposed would not In
terfere unduly with the regular oc-
equations Of the young men enrolled
because there would be both winter
and summer periods OF which they
could make their choice. This would
enable the youth working on a north
ern farm to select the winter train
ing period and be assigned to a train
ing camp In the south. In any event,
he would be away from home a COM
paratively short time and he would
not be absent during the harvest sea-
son.
Furthermore, young men would be
placed In training according to the
service for which they are best suited.
For example. negro youths of the
south, who had not gone far In school
Ing might be enrolled In labor battal-
ions. In these they would acquire the
rudlments of drill, but, more impor-
tant, would learn habits OF right liv-
ing.
A careful selection OF officers would
be relied on to insure the system
against any abuse of authority. Off
GERS unsulted for training work,
whether they belonged to the regular
army, the national guard or the re-
serve corps, would not be assigned
to training camps. Those developing
traits that impaired their usefulness
would he relieved. Civilian officers
would have an equal share with reg
ular army officers In the training pro-
gram.
Advocates OF the system OF com
pulsory training say that n small reg
ular army together with Il large citl-
zen army as contemplated would cost
less than even the regular army es-
tablishment. which would be set up
under the bill which the house Of rep
~resentatiyes now is considering seri-
ously.

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

Numerous reports received from all
parts of the country at National head
quarters OF the American Legion, show
that there Is a misunderstanding on
the part of many regarding the or
sanization, and particularly with re-
gard to its purpose along military
lines.
This misunderstanding has resulted
in the issuing of the following state
ment, by Lemuel Bolles, national ad-
%jutant:
1T has been brought to my notice
on several occasions that there is a
belief on the part Of many that the
American Legion is q military organ
ization. OF course It 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.
THE organization has interested It.
self actively In the military policy Of
the country, not because we are a mil
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 h part OF patriotic clti-
zens to serve their country along lines
in which they feel they are specially
prepared to speak in~telligently.
"The military policy OF the Amer
lean Legion was determined ut the
Minneapolis convention and has been
clearly defined by the military policy
committee there appointed.
"The American Legion Is in favor
Of universal military training, but the
national convention OF the American
Legion also provided. as a condition
precedent thereto and as an essential
safeguard thereof, for civilian control.
The convention recognized the fact
that a thorough housecleanlng and
elimination of the inefficient officers
and methods OF our entire military
establishment was necessary and also
favored equality Of obligation and OPP
portunity for all American citizens,
and adequate protection against an
enlarged or stronger military caste.
while the convention favored the
policy OF universal military training.
at the sGSne time a stand was taken
against compulsory military service In
time OF peace. The American Legion
favors a national military and naval
system based on universal military OBJ
legations to include a relatively small
regular army and navy and a citizen
army and navy capable OF rapid x
pansion sufficient to meet any national
emergency on n plan which will pro-
vide competitive and progressive
training for all officers, both Of the
regular army and navy and Of the citi-
zen forces.
"But our military obligations are the
same as those of all other citizens
the same as the obligations OF any OF
the many fraternal organizations in
the country"

Union Fsvors leeion's Stand.

Franklin D'Oller, national com

receipt of a letter from the Brick
layers union Of Ames, Ia, favoring
the stand taken by the legion on ad-
justment of compensation Of ex-serv-
ice men. The letter which is signed
by Charles Cooney, financial secre-
tary, Is as follows: I'VE wish 10 ex-
press our attitude on the question OF
bonuses for soldiers. The question
was taken up at our meeting and
am glad to state that we are heartily
in accord with the movement and
hope II will be OF sufficient size 10

dered. Please let US know what We
can do to be of service"

Baty arose from a sick bed to meet
the Mexicans after they had inter-
cepted his son with drawn pistols in

young Baty to proceed into the house
and he aroused his father. Mr.. Baty,
partially clad, went to the front door
and opened it. As he did so six bull
