post put on its campaign for four
days recently. The city was organized
into ward and precinct teams. Solicit

p~licants into n and took their
cash. usually without protest. The
names of men who refused to join
were turned In at post headquarters
and a corps of expert statesmen were
put on the trail of these hard nuts.
The friendly cooperation Of business
houses. newspapers and motion pic

doomed up when the dust settled after
the four days and 1t was discovered

OBJECTS OF THE AUXILIARY
Women's Branch Of Legion Has Same
Ideas and Plans a. Mems
Organization.

The objects Of the women's auxil-
larry are the same as those expressed
in the constitution of the American
Legion. and as that constitution was
adopted cOnformably to the act Of
congress of September 16, 1919, incor-
porating the legion. the auxiliary and
all its units.
For God and Country" reads the
preamble to the constitution, 1--WE as
sociate ourselves together for the fol
lowing purposes:
L uphold and defend the Constitu-
ton of the United States of America I;
to maintain law and order. to foster
and perpetuate a 100 per cent Ameri-
canism; 10 preserve the memories and
incidents of our association in the
great war; to inculcate a sense of in
dividual obligation to the community,
state and nation to combat the autOc-
racy of both the classes and the
masses; to make right the master of
might; to promote peace and good will
on earth; to safeguard and transmit
to pOsterity the principles Of justice.
freedom and democracy; to cOnsecrate
and sanctify our cOmradeship by our
devotion to mutual helpfulness."
There are many forces which have
served to give impetus to the move
ment among eligible American women
to become ACTIVELY identified with the
legion through one or another of its
more than 1900 community posts, but
to this preamble, more than to any
other one thing. Is attributed the sue
cess and nationwide enthusiasm
which has greeted everywhere the
suggestion of forming an auxiliary
unit. When II is considered that this
suggestion usually comes from the In
dividual l%egionnalre direct to his
mother. wife, sister or daughter, who
In turn transmits 1t to women rela-
tives of other ~legionnaires In her
community. thus invited to join by the
double i~nstigation both within and out
side the immediate family circle. 1t Is
easily understood that such an appeal
proves almost universally irresistible.

signed article In n recent ssue of the
American Legion Weekly. He writes (:
The American Legion's fight for the
fourfoId optional compensation plan
has entered a new phase.
The opposition. defeated in its at
tempt to invoke popular sentiment
against the measure itself, has turned
from the direct to the indirect method
Of attack. The new strategy Is to
strike the bill. through the instrument
OF a fomented controversy owe meth
DDS of money raising.
ALREADY the attempt is being made
to divert attention from the bill to
the question of the means by which
the money shall be raised to carry out
its provisions. IL the advocates of
different revenue-prOducing schemes
can he played off against one another
W money raising. in which the bill.
occupying the role Of innocent by
stander, shall receive a mortal blow,
this design will have succeeded.
1.-The fourfold plan has withstood
the closest scrutiny. The economic
soundness of the land settlement,
home aid and vocational training OPP
lions and the fact that the fourth OPP
zion can be paid automatically to the
dependents of those who died. to all
disabled and to those needing assist
ance. makes the plan the best solution
Of the problem of beneficial legislation.
"A majority of congress favor the
hill. Congress, however. begins its
summer vacation soon. Unless the
bill is passed before that adjournment.
the chances of its ultimate passage
will be greatly impaired and the flu
ture of all ex-service beneficial legiS-
latiOn injuriOusly affected. National
headquarters has pressed the legiOn's
ease with all the vigor 1t car COM
mand and has received admirable sup
port from the membership. Ii Is i'm
perative that these efforts be sus-
tanned. State departments, posts and
individuals throughout the country
should continue to impress upon their
senator's and congressman that the bill
should be passed before adjournment
and the question OF money raising not

BACK TO EARTH WITH BUMP
Oregon and Wyoming Land Fiascos
Not creditable to Nation. Says
Legion Weekly.

The Oregon and Wyoming land fias-
cos. states a writer in The American
Legion Weekly, are not exactly cred
liable to a nation that prides itself,
above all else. on It's business eficien-
cy. The machinery jammed some
where-what machinery there was
for when farms 90 TO 10 men out of
10000. who exhibit enough interest to
write to Washington about the land,
then It il evident too few wheels are
grinding.
To the returning soldier his familiar
America took on the aspect OF an FL
Dorado. He ~e%approached II with
something Of the practical idealism of
the immigrant. To be sure. he knew
Its streets were not gold paved. but
he recollected how he had always
heard II was the land Of opportunity
and how. from boyhood. he had e
people taking advantage Of the oppor-
tunity. And 10 whom would America
quicker extend the helping hand than
her homecoming defenders?
He had been shaken mi Of a rut in
which he probably would have lived
and died but for the wars coming.
Being out. he determined not to drop
back. He heard the call Of the land.
Picture the feelings, then. of some
$40 Of these pioneers who travelled TO
Wyoming only to find that less than a
tenth OF them could get the land they
sought. Picture the feelings Of the
men who went 10 Oregon to be shown
desolate tracts that reminded Of the
rockiest. thorniest passes Of the Ar
come.
The land and home features Of the
~Iegion's four-foid compensation plan
cannot make the desert bloom. nor can
they divide government sections 50 as
to make room for all comers. But they
can see to 1t that the machinery is nd
sauat to give all land-loying ex-serv-
ice men opportunity to establish their
homes wherever they want them; and
to prevent such costly and disappoini-
ing stampedes as Oregon and WyOm-
Ing just have Witnessed.

LEGI0N'S F0URF0LD PROGRAM
Members Urged to FamiIiarire Them.
selves With Facts Concerning Ben
efieiai Legislation.

The American Legion's fourfold op-
tIonal plan Of beneficial legislation EN-
braces the following provisions:
I. Land settlement. whereby ex-
service men will be assisted in pur-
chasing n farm In any state. reimburs-
ing the government for funds adj
vanced by easy payments extending
over n period of ten years or more.
.. Home aid. whereby ex-service men
will get government assistance in pur-
chasing "A home.
3. Vocational training. whereby an
ex-service man may learn a trade or
vocation with the assistance of the
government.
4. Adjusted compensation based on
length of military service. This would
go automatically to the beneficiaries
| Of those who died In service. to all dis.
| abled men. and to those ex-service men
who do not elect to avail themselves
Of one Of the foregoing provisions.
The plan Is designed to overcome
the financial disadvantages incidental
to military service. 1t Is the result or
a careful study Of the needs and
wishes Of ex-service men of every
state. The economic value to the
United States OF r~e-establishlng the
ex-soldier in the present period Of re-
adjustment and low production Is con.
sidered to he great.
The legion has asked that congress,
In meeting the nations obligation to
the ~ex-service man. be as liberal as is
consistent with the welfare Of the
country. II has recommended that
the extent to which assistance Is CIV
on the individual ex-service man be
based upon his length OF service.
Members Of the legion are urged to
familiarize themselves with these
facts so that they may assist In dis
polling the misunderstanding now sur.
rounding the legion's program.
