How post of the American Le- zion purified little oil-boom town in Texas when respect for law and order had become a mOckery is told in the American Legion Weekly.
 Desdemona. Tex, was hardly more than a stop for wayfarers on the road. slumbrous, dusty community, until oil came and the town took on new life and lured hosts of brawny adventur- CTS. The treasure hunters came to prospect and pioneer but, as is inevi- tably the case. there followed after them horde of shifty-eyed gentry and red-lipped women. The word was passed out that the lid was off in Des- demona.
 Then the ring ran up against The American Legion. Individually for a long time the members of Peavy-Brice post tried quietly to combat the spread of vice in Desdemona. The ring, aid ed by the town constable. deputy sheriff and the justice of the peace. de- cided that it would crush this organi- zation of veterans who stood for ideals that were not compatible with places of unsavory repute. IL began by threatening the Legionnaires with vio- lence and when IL found them unwil- ling to retaliate IL grew more arro- gant The post quietly called cap tain of Texas rangers from Austin.

ATTENTION TO DISABLED MEN
Many Posts Join in Campaign to Pro vide Aid and Care for Afflicted
 Ex.Service Boys.

Quick response has been manifested by scores of posts of the Legion in the campaign launched by the American ism commission to aid and care for disabled service men. Reports from all sections of the country tell of en- tertanments arranged tor the wound ed and of visits 10 the hospitals where they are confined.
 Eight service men who are now In the Fox Hills (N. Y.) hospital have been assigned to the Scarsdale post, which is planning to look after them following their discharge from the in sttution. while the New Haven (Conn) post presents a weekly enter tainment for the 100 veterans conva- lescing in the hospital in that city.
 Plans along similar lines are being carried out by the John Purroy Mitch el post of New York city, which has appointed committee to advise and assist wounded men in the Polycllnic hospital and a group of patients from this institution are entertained each week at the KnollwOod Country club at White Plains. The men are taken out into the country in motorcars.
 Henry J. Ryan, state Americanism chairman of Massachusetts, arranged an outing when many soldier convales- cents in the hospitals in and around Boston were motored to a country es- tate in Chestnut Hill, where they were guests at a luncheon and horse show was staged for their benefit.

The captain found Desdemona in tumult. Armed members of the vice ring were paradng through the streets in confident bravado. The post mar shaled its forces and ordered the three offending "peace" officers of the town to leave within twenty-four hours. The latter returned contemptuous re- fusal Desdemona seethed. From oil fields and camps hundreds of men poured into town to be present when the utimatum should expire.
 Eighteen Legionnaires were sworn in as deputy rangers and mingled with the crowd while the offending officers swaggered down the main street. Just as the time limit expired one unarmed member of the Legion post stepped up to the officers and ordered them to surrender. A dozen revolvers ieaped from dozen hips and all the bravado went out of the ring. The Legion dep uties disarmed the leaders and march ed them off to an office, where they wrote out their resignations as town officials.
 The next morning the roads from Desdemona were dotted with automo- piles bearing the exodus of the sport ing fraternity to newer and greener pastures. Desdemona was through with them.
