peril of radicalism, and TO awaken 10
the need of intelligent cooperation In
the governments efforts to combat the
menace.
"In the past the American Legion
has stood foursquaTe in Its opposition
to radicalism, to everything that might
tend to undermine our government and
its institutions" Colonel Owsley said.
And always In the future can our
organization be depended on to fight
any force that does not represent lOo
per cent loyalty.
"At the present time the disloyal
elements in our society are more ac-
tive than ever befpre. Long-haired
dreamers prate of the new order OF
things. and at the same time bolder
spirits lay dark plans for acts OF vio-
lence that they hope win serve In un-
dermining the public's faith and trust
in the government, or by force of ter
rorlsm win support. The recent ar
rests of communist leaders in Illinois;
the necessity of state government ac-
tion against the I. w. WIS in Kansas;
the stirring of radical movements In
many parts of the country concomitant
with the unrest and troubles of labor
disputes show the necessity OF con-
stant watchfulnessA and readiness for
action on the part of the American
Legion
Mr.. Owsley declared that wherever
he had been he had found the program
of Americanism prepared by the Amer
lean Legion close to the hearts of Lee
glonnaires. and of the public as a
whole.
There are three big important
things that stand first with American
Legion members everywhere" he de-
clared. "They are disqualification, re-
babilitation and AmericanizatiOn. All
are embraced In the term American
izatlon.'
'Education of foreign-born elements
Of our population in patriotism and
duty to government, and restriction Of
immigration in order that we may not
be surfeited with aliens unable to as
simulate Americas ideals and purposes,
but more likely to affiliate themselves
In their ignorance with the evil forces
that seek to tear down-these and
other essentials of the American Lee
gion's program of Americanism have
a strong appeal with Leglonnaires
everywhere.
"Care of the disabled veterans trans
cend every other thing. as find 1t, In
the hearts and minds OF American Le-
gion members. Wherever I go, hear
this subject discussed-Leglonnaires
want justice done for their buddies
who have paid price of suffering, and
illness, In inability to properly sup
port themselves and dependents.
"No other question. be 1t adjusted
compensation or what not, looms so
large In American Legion gatherings
as does this ones The last year has
been one of achievement of the Lee
gion in this vital matter. There still
is much to be done. And find that
not only every .Legionnalre l have
talked to Is determined not to rest
until his disabled buddies are cared
for, and restored to gainful employ
ment, but that the public stand
squarely and deliberately back Of
them.
Recent figures quoted are that less
than 1000 veterans out Of 11,0O0 ap,
proximately, trained by the govern
ment. have been restored to gainful Uc-
equations where they can compete sue.

This is condition that appeals to
the American Legion. 1t Is condi-
tion that calls for reorganization OF
