EX-SERV|CE MEN
D|SAPPR0VE ACTS
Of CAPT. HE|NTZ
Editor Morning Journal:

Editor Morning Journal:
The publicity the evening sheet
has given the voters of the state
regarding the activities of one
Capt. Victor Heintz, said to have
been sent out by the national coun-
Gil of the American Legion to
speak in this state in behalf of the
candidacy Of Bursum, has come to
our notice. Because Of the fact that
the constitution of the American
legion emphatically states that it
shall remain non-partisan in re-
gard to political candidates we
question the propriety of the ac-
tons Of this gentleman. The VET
Grams of Foreign Wars and all
similar organizations takes a like
stand in the matter of political
candidates. Therefore. we. as ex-
service men, acting not in the name
of any organization. want the
voters of this state to know that
whatever course others may
choose, we are unalterably against
this candidate in this campaign.
We have received no recognition
from the present administration,
ollu II blli lIt ICSSiIl dSllOIlc VI llS
leader, we expect none; however,
we are opposed to any candidate
for the United States senate who
is unable to stand out and vote on
a measure until he knows the re-
suit of the entire vote on that
measure.
Regardless of how a member of
the national committee Of the
American Legion believes, We be-
lieve that we want a man to rep
resent us in the senate who is fit
both by educational preparation
and past record of service.
We realize that the evening
parer prints numerous endorse
ments of this act by ex-soldier or
CARNATIONS at Washington; how
ever we are unable to find any
posts in this state making any such |
endorsements; therefore we urge
the voters of this state not to be-
come blinded by this propaganda
into believing that this candidate
has monopolizeA the ex-service
mans vote in this impending cleo
ton.
We trust that the great organi-
cations of ex-service men have not
so far completely forgotten their
purposes and constitutions as to
voluntarily aid and assist such
candidate in such campaign.
We hope that this instance Is
without authority and that this
"Heintz ST. who we are informed
is paid employee of the republican
n n y,noipp MN, ,itf On will ha COLL
ed back to headquarters to greater
and more worthy service.
