LEGION FRENCH
TRIP OPPOSED
BY WILLIAM s. NEAL
international News Service

The proposed American Legion
pilgrimage to the old stamping
grounds Of the A. e. +. IN Paris
today had become d matter Of seri-
Gus discussion among Washington
officials with the prospect that
legion officers will carry into their
Philadelphia convention next month
some notwithstanding reports on the
situation abroad.
Whether the slegionnalres as am
bassadors OF good win can over.
come the anti-American feeling
overseas is regarded by officials
here as one OF the most important
questions the legion has been called
upon to answer.
The imaginative appeal Of Amerf-
can veterans descending upon Paris
10 years after they entered the
war-perhaps led by General Perish
ing again--is strong.
Although friends Of General
Pershing hold he would become
national commander OF the legion
only IL drafted for the post. they
declare he would not lead~ the
legion back TO France, believing tile
mission would be misunderstood.
General Pershing has just re-
turned to his desk from abroad.
Most OF the time be was In France.
The generals friends understand
that he is not favorably impressed
with the project of the legion going
abroad next year because of the
growth OF nti-American feeling,
particularly in France.
