Legion Auxiliary Important

The American Legion Auxiliary is of
primary importance to the American
Legion's plans for civic and patriotic
legislation because women now have
the ballot" DR.. Kate Waller Barrett,
president of the Auxiliary, told forty
five state adjutants of the Legion at
the opening session of their recent CON
ference there.
"Old-line politicians have found that
they must deal with women these days
and it is not the most pleasant news
in the world for them. Women are
especially interested in those board
measures which are designed to work
toward the betterment of the social
state of humanity The Legion can
rely on the Auxiliary to the limit for
the furtherance of these purposes" DR..
Barrett stated that she was for adj
justad compensation men "tirst, last
and all the time" Service to veterans,
cooperation with other organizations
in civic and worthy enterprises and
effective propaganda were named by
Claude A. Brown of Little Rock, ad-
jutant OF the Arkansas department, as
the "best tools" in an address on "How
to Sell the American Legion to the
Public Mr.. Brown said that "pub-
licity is the T. n. T. of the American
Legion and urged that the Legion
posts establish closer relations with
the newspapers of their communities.
The speaker praised the American
Legion Speakers Bureau as an effective
medium to bring the Legion's message
to the public.

A MAN GIVES EVIDENCE
His Testimony Will Interest Every
Middlebury Reader

The value of local evidence is indis-
putable. 1t is the kind of evidence we
accept as true because we know we
can prove it for ourselves. There has
been plenty of such evidence ~ the
Middlebury papers lately, and this
straightforward testimony has estab-
lished a confidence in the minds OF
Middebury people that will not be
easily shaken.
Thomas Dobson, Sc Pleasant ST.,
Middlebury, says: For a number of
years l have used Doan's Kidney Pills
for my back and kidneys. My back
gave me no end of trouble and when !
stopped over, my back was so bad l
thought it would break. My kidneys
acted too frequently at night and the
secretons burned in passage. used
a few boxes of Doan's Kidney Pills and
they cured me. Now whenever 1 am
bothered l always rely on Doan's for
they always cure me UP in short order

of the New York State Chamber of
Commerce, oldest organization of like
character in the world. owe hear
much of what the coal and steel in
dustries need in the way of raw labor
but this need is nothing to that of last
winter, when a million ex-service men
walked the streets and slept in parks
jobless. These men had fought for
America. 1t was their right to be
given first chance at jobs"
Before Mr.. Owsley spoke and after
some debate, the Chamber had adopt
ed resolution unfolding immigration
restriction. The Legion head com
mended them on their Americanism
and uhselishness in this matter.
81 am here to tell you what the
Legion is doing for the cause of edu-
cation and community betterment
and Americanism," he continued Owe
have 1000 posts, scattered through all
parts of America, carrying onfor our
country. To these men and their
comrades, you delegated in war, the
defense of Americas honor. You can
feel safe in giving into their hands in
peace a similar duty. They want your
help in its performance and the help of
all loyal Americans"
During American Education Week
which closed recently, the Legion set
aside one day as "Illiteracy Day." with
the following suggested topics l..
Illiteracy as a blot on our nation 2.
No illiteracy in 1927. 8 A Citizens
Duty toward the Uneducated A. No
immigration until illiteracy among ma
tive and foreign-born is removed
Middlebury register. (Middlebury, Vt.) 1886-1937, 1922-12-22
Would Exclude Immigrants

Total exclusion of all immigration
for a period of five years will be urged
by American Legion adjutants in all
states, it was decided at recent con-
ference of the adjutants in Indianap-
oils. The Legion will ask Congress to
enact legislation to that end.
The Legion's stand on immigration,
according to a number OF speakers at
the conference, is based upon the in
crease in illiteracy in this country
which in turn is said to be responsible
for all red and bolshevistic movements
now steadily increasing in scope. The
3 per cent immigration law of 1920 was
branded by the Legion as failure.
Immigration must be restricted
even if this restriction pinches certain
industries" Alvin Owsley, national

the Ambassador. 81 know the fine
things the Legion has set out to ac-
complish l know how much you have
achieved already in difficult ways.
When you arrive at unmarked cross
roads, and doubt arises as to the right
direction to take ask yourself which
path Marshal Foch would follow, and
