America one hundred percent in
telligence, intellect and an unadul-
terated affection and love for coun.
try" George l.. Berry. delegate from
Tennessee, former National Vice
Commander of the American Legion
Pressmen's Union, said in address
ing the Legions Convention today.
Speaking fo2 organized labor and
its President, Samuel Gompers. Mr..
Berry declared the aspirations of
the two institutions. insofar as their
specific jurisdictions extend, are iden-
tical and that "it was good that in
the life of this country there has
come into existence an organization
such as the Legion, interested in
legislation for human development
and economic fairness
"The International Trades Unions
that make up the American Fedora
tion of Labor are both economic and
legislative in character" Mr.. Berry
asserted.
Federation Is American
"The American Federation of La
Dor is American in its every pur-
pose and sentiment. | venture the
observation that no organization of
men and women would respond in
resentment at anything that is In
contravention to our American ideals
and purposes any quicker than would
the American Federation of Labor.
It stands again sovietism and com
munism; both of which are un-
American and founded upon theories
destructive of the well-being of our
citizenship.
1.-The American Federation OF L..
Dor joins with the American Legion
in that great legislative program
which seeks to eliminate illiteracy
from America. The Federation and
the Legion could mot be consistent,
with the broad humanitarian program
based upon practical experiences, to
hesitate in their support and alleg-
lance to the proposition of eradicat-
ing illitcracy. Consequently. it is
good to be able to point to the rec
ords of the Legion and the Fedora
tion of Labor in their determine
tion to lind the cause and to apply
the remedy to illiteracy."
Federation Backs Legion
The Federation of Labor has
unanimously endorsed the legisla
tive program of the Legion in toto

cause the greatest single numerical
