Is The Legion Selfish?

daily and weekly newspapers pub
lished in Minnesota and note the
scores of instances where Legion
and Legion Auxiliary members are
busily engaged in helping their home
town in one way or another, is
to be impressed by the extent to
which the efforts of the Legion and
its Auxiliary are bound up with the
welfare of our great state, notwith-
standing the fact that three years
ago the organization. had not been
thought of and it's members were
spread throughout the world, honor
ably performing whatever duty Uncle
Sam saw fit to assign them to.
Yet some people say that the
Legion is a selfish organization. If
reverently receiving the bodies of
its dead comrades and laying them
tenderly to rest with all the honors due
them is selfish, then the Legion is
selfish. If fighting in the state and
national legislatures for justice to
those who served their country, par
ticulary those who lost their limbs
and health in defense of Old Glory. is
selfish, then the Legion pleads guilty
If getting back of plans to boost for
and brighten community life in the
old home town is selfish, then the
Legion surely wins the prize. And
if lending helping hand to buddy
in distress is dishonorable, then the
Legion has reason to be ashamed of
itself.
Occasionally, other unfair criticism
is made of the organization which
those who honorably served their
country have built up, criticism which
plainly indicates that those who make
it, do so maliciously or through
ignorance of that of which they speak.
But in the heart of the great state of
Minnesota, in the minds of the mai
ority of it's citizens, the American
Legion has earned for itself an
esteem and a confidence of which it
may justly be proud. Perhaps every
Legion post in Minnesota has NOT
burned up the world, perhaps. it
doesn't expect to, but in it's own quiet
way it does its bit and is always ready
to lend hand when help is needed
either in the community or indiv-
idually.
| To ex-service men of this great
state who have been undecided as to
whether or not they should join their
comrades, the Legion extends the
hand of friendship. If you are one
of them, and do not think the Legion
is what it might be or ought to be,
Legionaires will value your advice.
They cannot promise you that all
your ideas will be adopted, because
democratic organization must be
governed by the will of the majority,
and the majority may not always
accept best judgment of one men,
Der. But if you will lend helping
hand, your vote will count, and you
will have the satisfaction of boosting
for your home town, for Minnesota,
your country, and your buddies.
THE City Council of the City of
Virginia has officially instructed me
