Women Veterans Join Fight
for Passage of Amend
ment No. / Granting
Civil Service Preference
Greenwich Village TO I'm
veil Monument Sunday;
National Convention to-
Urge Aid for Jobless

On the eve OF the national conven-
tion of the American Legion, at Kansas
City, members of the American Legion
in this state are giving ali their atten-
tion to only one issue-the adoption of
amendment No. i to the constitution
of New York State. which provides
for civil service preferment for World
War veterans.
Even the women veterans of the war.
OF whom there are many, have inter-
ested themselves in the fight, and on
Tuesday afternoon they held meet
ing in State Headquarters, Hall of
Records, which they believe should be
an inspiration to ex-serv.ce men.
More than twenty-five of them, some
of whom bore wounds and dozen of
whom are now taking vocational train
ing, passed resolutions urging the
mothers, wives, sisters and daughters
OF veterans to see that justice is
done to the boys on Election Day by
working for the passage of Amendment
No. /.
The organizations represented in
Guided women's auyiliaries of the
American Legion, the Gold Star Moth
ers, Jane A. Delano Post of the Amer.
ican Legion, the Police Department
Post, the Women's Signal Corps Post,
and several posts of navy yeomen.
Mrs. Taylor, who had twenty months
service overseas and was at the front
for long period with Mobile Hos
pital No. 10, was outspoken in her in
dorst.nent of civil service preference
for veterans.
Appeal to Women Voters
ANY woman who saw service in
France in those days cannot fail to
approve the amendment" she said.
The people who are opposing it now
are those who stood on the curbstone
waving the American flag when the
boys marched away. They promised
everything then. Now these same peo-.
pie would have them crawl along to
the old ragtime music, Il Don't Care
II They Never Come Back"
Mrs. That's Magrane, president of the
New York State Women's Auxiliaries
OF the American Legion, which com
prises 10000 members; Miss Gertrude
+. Robinson, representative of the Jane
A. Delano Post, the largest army nurse
post in the United States; Miss Flor
ence f. Kelly, who served with the
Naval Intelligence Department in Brest,
Toul, . Nancy and other points in
France; Miss Laura Curtis, who was
disabled while in the service as an
army nurse; Mrs. NJ L. Humphrey, a
gold star mother, and Miss Ray II.
Sawyer, who was detailed with the
Marine Corps publicity bureau with
the rank of corporal, all urged the
voting women to go to the polls with
the fixed idea of expressing their graft
tude to the men who served.
