HEAD Of LEGION
URGES SCHOOL
FIGHT ON REDS

Members of local American
Legion posts, particularly those
employed in the school system,
were exhorted today by Frank N.
Belgrano, jr., Of San Francisco,
national commander of the Le-
gion, to band together in a special
post for the primary purpose OF
fighting communism.
Mr.. Belgrano pointed to the
Boston School Masters Post Of
the Legion, the first to be organ.
lied for the specific purpose Of
battling communism. The post is
composed of members who are EN-.
ployed in the Boston school sys-
tenn.
Commander Belgrano declared
the example of Boston should be
followed by every city, where 1t is
possible to do so. He said that
those who form American Legion
posts in their respective communi-
ties were charged with the right
to see that American school chill.

rooms and free from the teach.
1ngs of anything Communistic.
The sentiments of the national
commander we're backed by
James O'Connor Roberts, com.
mander of the District Depart
ment Of the Legion.
Commander Roberts pointed
out that, while no post was or
ganized in the Capital along the
lines Of the Boston post, every
District post was pledged to a
100 per cent American program.
He declared:
"WhiIe 1 think it is an excel

ton Of school system employees
such as the Boston post, never
theleSS we have no information
at the present time as to how
many District school system
employees could qualify as Le-
giOnnaireS in the formation of
such an organization.
"Such a post would be Of
great benefit in the battle
against communism. It would
be a means of getting day in
and day out check on what is
being taught in the schools"

I favor payment of the soldiers

2. The bonus payments can

The money would be distributed
directly to those who are entitled

3. The money would be dis.

The uncertain whims of poll.

distribution.
4. The payment would stimu.

money would be spent in all parts

business would go ahead with
more confidence if the bonus
question were settled. The un-
certainty of what Congress will

5. Most Of the veterans are
around 40 years of age. Many
have families or other response

will give them new courage; it
will enable them to carry on"

6. It is a just debt which must
be paid some day. It is not a

40 the Editor of The Times:
On Wednesday night, May 8, a
fire engine was struck by a street
car while answering an alarm.
Four firemen were injured and
the apparatus demolished.
Street cars as well as automo-
biles should give the fire depart
ment the right of way when
answering an alarm. But the
street cars do not even want to
slow up to give them clear path.
The Capital Transit Company
should caution the motormen to
stop when the fire department is
running to make things safe. The
company should also be compelled
to replace the wrecked apparatus.
