TO BE GREAT WAR MEMORIAL
State of Indiana to Erect Magnificent
Building to House Legion Ma
tional Headquarters.

The erection of a magnificent build
ing to house national headquarters of
Tie American Legion in Indianapolis
IS assured following the action of The
Indiana state legislature, which voted
that the state war memorial should
take the form of structure for this
purpose.
A tract of state-0wned land In the
center of Indianapolis, 900 feet long by
450 feet wide, will be dedicated to this
project ana the city has been author
lied to include two additional city
blocks adjoining the state properties.
The result will be splendid plaza
with American Legion headquarters in
the center. The land is valued at APP
proXimately S12.000,000
The Legion building will be con
structed under the control of board
of trustees appointed by the governor
of Indiana. All members will be men
of the Legion. Already the Indiana
legislature has voted tax levy which
will yield more than $3,OO0OOO as an
earnest of its desire to adequately
house and equip national hcadquar-
ters of the Legion.
