American citizen found in each state,
and third, general enthusiasm toward
educational work and community serv-

general welfare and progress Of the

Legion is more efficient today in Min

of his Office, by stating that licenses
will be revoked in all cases where
violations of law by proprietors are
shown sufficient to warrant the re-

violations.
The main charges on which the

handling of liquor, he said. PERMITS
