TEST
Military Service Legion Is
Told Of Benefits to Be
Gained BY Leaders

The Military Service Legion at
its meeting last night in the New
Ebbitt hotel, listened to two talks
on National Defense Day given by
Colonel C. Fred Cook, Of the Dis
trict National Guard and Major
Reynold e. Blight, o. r. c. The
meeting was presided over by Major
Sterling Kerr, commander Of the
legion. Major Blight said, in part;
1T is important that officers
upon whose shoulders the RESPONSE
bility of leadership would fall
should be informed as to what
action they must take in a ma.
tional emergency. Never again
must we be caught mapping and
unprepared as we were in 1917.
THE pacifist, no matter how sin.
cere he may be, who opposes the
Defense Day test program is i'm.
periling the national security. Kind
ly sentiments and guileless spirit
would be a poor defense in case
OF attack. We are a great, rich

may well be envied and feared.

chance to star on the broadcasting

OF course, the Martians don't
know it, but their broadcasters and
Signalers are to be allotted five
minutes of each of the earth'S
hours.
1t is quite possible that those
identical five minutes may be made
silent on Mars to permit the listen
ers there to catch signals from the
earth.
Such coincidence, however, is
deemed improbable by our scien-
lists. We are not considered intel

which our seniors by a few billion
