Their combined efforts leading definitely
toward that goal all wish to see attained
Surely we the living could leave no finer
memorial TO our heroic comrades than a
definite understanding among peoples that the
horrors of war shall be no more
1T is a great satisfaction to know that the
members of Fidac are still marching forward
shoulder to shoulder as they did in those war
torn days 1t is hoped that their enthusiasm
may never wane until peace is assured
throughout the earth. / fervently pray that
this contamination may one day be fully
realized"
THE spirit of accord which marks the rela-
tions of Fidac members is noted in the
correspondence received by Mai. Julius l. Pey-
ser, chairman of the Washington Fidac COM
mittee. Here are few samples OF the senti-
ments expressed.
From Jugoslavia: IT and my friends of the
Jugoslavian Ffdac will have the great pleas
ure to visit again your great and splendid
country, which stands at the head of all
humanity in regards to social progress"
From France: THE friendship of France for
the United States, of French ex-seryice men
for the American Legion, constitutes one of our
principal aims. The French delegation will
never forget the links which bind together"
Prominent Legionnaires have always at
tended the Fidac sessions in various lands and
have returned familiarized with the recon-
strBetion, problems that confront these nations.

When the American Legion held its conven-
ton in Paris in 1927 it was the Fidac that
arranged the entertainment of the veterans
and conducted the tours to the battlefelds.
But Fidac does great deal more than bring
together the leading members of the most
important ex-service mems organizations for a
discussion of their common problems. 1t has
taken active steps in Europe to combat the
spread of communism; it has acted as inter-
mediary when strained relations arose between
member nations. For long time there was
considerable friction between France and
Italy. For four years Fidac worked necessarily
to ameliorate this situation. 1t brought into
personal contact at its headquarters in Paris
leaders of the ex-service mems movement who
had influence with their governments A press
and lecture campaign promoted through
the veterans associations of France and Italy
and the improved relation now between these
two Latin nations is largely due to their efforts
Similarly Jugoslavia and Italy have mis-
understood each other eight years and Fidae
has done much to smooth out their difficulties.
MANY of the members of Fidac hold high
government positions. In Italy a man
who later was president of the Fidac Nicola
Sansanelli, became the first general secretary
of the Fascist party. In Poland the members
OF Fidac rallied around their old leader

Regarding the part of the state ment that the republicans did not plan on holding any rallies, MT. OBrien claimed the reason for this vas the lack of anything to talk about at a rally given by the G. o. P. as no one in the party under stood the platform, anyway.
 As for the statement they were not doing anything but were quietly sitting by watching the great stir going on in the democratic ranks. Mr. O'Brien said he did not believe this as their women workers could be seen daily darting from house to house canvassing the electorate. After making these remarks, MT. O'Brien settled down and talked along a more serious vein. assuring his listeners that if elected to office he had been nominated for he would represent the people of Plainville 10 the best of his ability, something he did not believe his opponents could do. even if they wished.
 George Levitt, lessee of the Strand theater and for some time an active worker in democratic circles, was the next speaker and delivered an effective address on the proposed old age pension bill. MT. Levitt moved his audience as he told of the pitiful conditions at many of the almshouses around the state.
 Augustine Lonergan, candidate for congress from this district was the next speaker and placed the blame for present economic conditions on the doorstep of the republican party. Lonergan told his listeners he was honored by membership on the con- mttee of 21 members of congress who drafted the federal reserve act, and though by the adoption of this measure, money panics are out of the question, abuses had crept into the administration of the act under the Coolidge and Hoover regimes that were entirely to blame for the stock market crash last fall which tumbled their house of cards built on quicksand down on their heads.
 Lonergan compared his stand on the repeal of the 18th amendment with his opponents and asked the support of the voters of Plainville on his record in Washington during his two terms. In introducing Loner- gan, Chairman Millerick said that Gus Lonergan had been on vaca- tion from his duties in Washington for the past few years but his Vaca- tion period was about over and he would be put back on the job again.
 Following Lonergan's talk. Minton A. Norton was introduced and told his listeners if he was sent to Hart

 Frank J. O'Brien, one of the can- didates for representative. was the first speaker on the program, and his good natured jibes at recent statement of Ralph l.. Seymour. chairman of the republican town committee. kept the audience in an uproar. MT. OBrien read an article written from statements made by Mir. Seymour and then went over it sentence by sentence. To begin with he said he did not know the redoubtable chairman but did not think very highly of his predictions, as, with caucus registration of 4 to 1 over the democrats. Mir. Sey- mour could see nothing but to 1 victory on election day. Aren't the other half of the republicans go- in gto vote?" asked MT. OBrien, "or are they going to vote the dem ccratic ticket?"

 At a meeting of the board of fire commissioners held in the city hall last evening it was announced by Fire Chief John H. Hayes that d committee of firemen. chosen from the city's various departments. had been named to investigate methods utilized in other cities where fire men receive pensions when they re- tire from active service. Although it has benefit fund, no pension fund has ever been raised by the fire department for it's aged mem- bers.
 It is believed that sufficient infor- nation will have been obtained by troduced to the state legislature re- questing permission to pension local fire fighters.
 The local police department has d pension fund, but no member has as yet retired to benefit from it, Police Chief Ernest T. Belden's last department report showed that the balance of the fund on Novem Der Go of last year was S22,443.27. One and one-half per cent of the police mems wages is added to this figure each month.

LOCAL MEN APPOINTED
TO POTATO COMMITTEE

At the meeting of Potato growers
dealers, and Extension Workers, at
Yakima Friday of last week. Mr.. Leo
Lampson, Manager of the Three
River Growers, was appointed to the
committee on marketing, and Mr.. H.
w. Desgranges to the committee on
Acreage. The committees usually
number about nine so we feel this
leaves Benton County fairly well
represented. Mr.. S. E. Chaffee at
Sunnyside was also appointed to the
committee on Acreage. With his
acreage in this County it really makes
another representative for the County.
Mr.. o. A. Fector of Yakima and Mr..
Bradley of the Old National Bank
Corporation were appointed to the
Finance committee. Since they both
have interests in this County it also
adds to the representation.
The meeting was in direct charge
of Mr.. R. M. Turner, Acting Director
Of the Extension Service for the
State. Mr.. Sherman, Head Of the
Fruits and vegetables Bureau, Wash
ington D. c. and Mr.. Morcker, Sec
rotary of the East Coast potato Organ
ization and Mr.. Drobish, the newly sell
ected Secretary for the Pacific North.
west committee were all present and
discussed various phases of the program.
We believe we are not overstating 1T
when we say that Mr.. Drobish made
very favorable impression upon
those present at the meeting, and we
believe that the potato industry can
look forward to the development OF
a good program under his direction.
The set-up for the State was the
appointment of a committee on mark
citing, committee on Acreage, and
committee on finance, which will be
called upon later to discuss problems
and develop programs along these
various lines. It was to these COM
mittees that the above men were an
pointed. Other states in the north
west will develop similar set-up
and it is hoped that strong pro-
gram will be DEVELOPED.
Mr.. Brown of Cold Creek was TIL
only potato growers from the County
present at the meeting. Franklin
County was represented bv one grow
er and Yakima and Kittitas Counties
by several growers.
