AMERICAN LEGION NOTES

Sheboygan, Wis, March z. 1892.
The following telegram from Ma
tional Commander MaeNider. was re-
eeived too late to be read at the Con-
ference at Appleton.
Edward J. Barrett. Commander The
American Legion, Sheboygan. Wis.
You fellow who are out getting our
buddies TO join the American Legion
realize as we all do that the strength
of the Legion is in the Posts, and your
Post will be just as strong as you
make H. The American Legion is not
at National Headquarters nor at De-
partment Headquarters, but it is you.
Every man who was in the service
owes it to his less fortunate buddies,
who are still living the war in the hos
pitals; blind, MANNED, and broken in
health, to join the Legion and fight
for them, for if we don't take care of
them who in he'll is going to. We
have got to stick together if we are
going TO accomplish proper legislation
to take care of them and to get adjust
ed compensation for allex-service men.
The Legion is the great organization
of ex-service men accepted for better
or worse by the Nation, who looks to
the Legion as the expression of the
veterans of the Great War. If we
don't all agree with its present pro-
! gram we must all get in and work to
keep it straight 1t is the big going
organization and no man can stop il
Z, by standing on the outside. Ten years
from now the Legion is going to mean
so much to these men, that they can't
afford 10 weaken it by staying out
| now when it is starting its real con-
structive work and establishing pre-
cedents for all times. The Legion
has no invisible inside workings. It
is Just you and me and million other
fellows all plugging together for the
good of our country. Ask these men
who are not in If they want TO desert
their buddies who are out of luck;
and show them that the Legion stands
behind them, Legion members or not,
to see that they get a square deal
from the country they fought for.
We must build this American Legion
of ours so big and fine and strong and
keep it so clean and straight and
American that when we advocate GER
tain policies or ask for certain legis-
lation that the good people Of our COM
munities will know that they can sup
port these things without question.
/ Get every ex-service man and woman
III w lsSOilsin HlNo tue AHleElcdH Ie-
gion. The Legion will be just as
strong as you make it. The Nation is
watching to see whether we really
mean these things that we say we re-
present, whether we are standing be-
hind our own organization and really
1 intend to be of service to our country.
Every man Jack of us on the job.
| Let's gol MacNider."
| Our next meeting will be in the
Band Hall a week from this Friday

LEGION WINS COURT BATTLES
DAMAGES Allowed National Organlza-
ton In First Litigation Instituted
Two Editors Indicted.

From the first court action which 1t
ever instituted to protect its name,
the American Legion emerged victori-
GUS. Judgment by default and dam
ages were awarded the Legion in the
suit against Francis H. Shoemaker of
Omaha, Neb., who was quoted as say
ing that the Legion was subsidized by
big interests" and was Opposed to or
ganized labor"
Shoemaker, who Is an alleged rad1-
cal worker, made speech last Deem
Der In Omaha, during the course OF
which he Is said to have referred to
the Legion as ian organization of
trained murderers opposed to organ
lied labor" Suit was brought by the
Legion commander in Nebraska on the
ground that the statements were
wicked, false and malicious" and for
the purpose of stopping such con-
temptible lies and showing union labor
that we resent charges Of being OPP
posed to them"
The Legion has also secured indict-
ments against two editors of the Hi
nois Stats Zeitung, a German-lan-
guage newspaper, for an editorial
which appeared in their paper libeling
ex-service men.

anything that would make him look
fierce enough.
If you want to be typical" you will
have to stack up as follows: Height, .
feet 1917 inches; weight, 100 pounds;
hair, light brown, and eyes, blue.
Mettlen's other specifications are that
he enlisted when nineteen years old,
while still a freshman at Nebraska uni

for bravery that he is as active in the
American Legion now as he was in the
Sixteenth infantry then, and that, In
addition to being typical American,
he is Scotch-Irish.
