LEGION SUPPORTS SCOUTS

That The American Legion
through the nation, the state, and
locally, is behind the Boy Scouts
of America is known by everyone.
but just how and what the Legion
is doing to foster the Scout spirit
in the youngsters of today and why
it is doing this work is not so well
known
In a recent report to the national
commander of the Legion by COM
mittee appointed to investigate and
study the relationship between the
Boy Scouts and The Legion the
following reasons why were re-
ported:
Both organizations are national
in character and both operate un-
der a charter granted by the Con-
gress of the United States.
"The preamble of the constitu-
tion of The American Legion speci-
fies ten purposes, eight of which
relate to the welfare of our coun-
try, and the Boy Scout program is
in harmony with these eight pur-
poses.
zone fundamental purpose of
Scouting is character building, an
other is citizenship training. The
primary need of Scouting is addi-
tional QUALIFIED VOLUNTEER
LEADERSHIP. The extension of
Scouting is limited by the number
of available volunteer adult leaders,
, and many Legionnaires are espec-
cially qualified for Scout leader
ship.
"The Legion is pledged to ser
vice of the community, state and
nation. The development and
training of our boys toward higher
character and citizenship repre-
sents an opportunity for the Legion
to render important service to the
community, state and nation"
SPLENDID REPORTS
National Commander John R.
Quigg of The American Legion,
writing to Colonel A. J. Dougherty
Department Commander of Arizona,
says: Il am hearing many splen-
did reports of the condition of the
Arizona department this year and
| want to take this opportunity to
thank you for the splendid CO.
operation you and the Legionnairs
of your department are giving"
A LIVE POST
Probably more real constructive
work is being done by the Winsolw
post of The American Legion than
any other post in the department
situated in a town of the same size.
The Winslow post has a Boy
Scout troop of its own with 80 boys
who look upon the Legionnairs as
fathers.
