LEGION ANSWERS
HUSSMAN LETTER
REPLY IS WRITTEN BY DR..
WILLIAM MacNEILL FOR
GRANGEVILLE POST

Grangville post No. 81, Ame-
rican legion, through DR.. Will
liam MacNeill. chairman of i
special committee appointed for
the purpose, has written an open
letter to William 3. Hussman,
of Cottonwood, answering cri-
ticisms by Mr.. Hussman of
Grangeville post.
DR.. MacNeil, who wrote the
reply to Mr.. Hussman, is vet
eran of the battlefields of
France. He was in the two
great drives of the war, parti-
cipating in the battles of the
Argonne and the Mouse.
Letter to Hussman.
Mr.. w. B. Hussman,
Cottonwood, Idaho
Sir:
Your letter published in the
Cottonwood Chronicle was read
by us with some surprise at the
trend of thought you expressed.
The purpose of the legion and
the principles for which we
stand are well known to all and
need no repetition.
1t seems needless to say that
if we, as legions, are to remain
faithful to our country and to
legion principles, we must de-
nounce any element that is not
in perfect harmony with demo-
crazy and civilization. Not only
must the legion take this atti-
tute, but so must all patriotic
people of our country, that "a
government of the people, by the
people and for the people" nigh,
survive. And it would seen
that, if this government of ours
is to survive, at this time wher
there are so many elements
such as the |. w. W., Non-par
tisans and bolshivik at work t.
overflow it, that the patriotic
and loyal Americans must stano
together as a nation and eradi
cate them from our midst.
Mr.. Hussman, if you are in &C
cord with the foregoing, theI
why do you take exception to tn,
action of Grangeville post il
their condemnation of this ele
ment? You critic the post fol
their actions. taken in referenc,
to the |. w. w. prosecutions, a!
well as the denouncing of tn,
Non-partisans. That criticism
to us, is violence to show which
| side Of the fence you are on. Il

are protected AGAINST wrong and
corruption. We fought and
suffered on the battlefields of
our country. Now, we intend
to motect that for which we
bled, by suffrage. and if need
be we can again FIGHT. suffer and
