second step following the Economy
Act. The Economy Act made the
Congress a rubber stamp. The Re-
organization bill seeks to influence
and control the Supreme Court.
Both bills tend to undermine and
overthrow our threefold plan of
government.
There are five big veteran
groups in this country. The G. A.
r., the United Spanish War Veter-
ans, the Disabled American Veter-
ans, the American Legion, and the
Veterans of the Foreign Wars. The
aims and principles Of them all are
greatly similar. There should be no
conflict between them. They are
like the five fingers on a human
hand-all separate, but all united
and getting their aims and purpos-
es from a common source, the vet
Grams love Of country. All Of them
have as one of their objects, better
care and treatment Of their disab-
led and needy comrades.
Today the world Is an armed
camp. All over the world there is
war and rumors Of war. Every ma
ton is preparing for war, and in
Spain, England, France and Rus
STA ON one side and Italy and Ger
many on the other side, are testing
their war material, ordinances, and
personnel. The job that Americans
have is to remember what propa-
ganda did in the World War to us,
and then to mind strictly our own
business. That's the attitude Of the
servicemen.
1.-The American Legion and the
v. f. w. have a constructive rec
ord of work for World Peace. Ever
since the Armistice we have work
ed to remove the causes of war, to
take the profits out of war. Our
dead comrades are asking us to-
day to remember that they died
that universal peace might come
to a suffering sore stricken world.
These servicemen who died for God
and Country are asking If their sac
rifice was in vain. They ask that
war be abolished, and that univer-
sal peace and good will on earth
that which the Prince of Peace,
Jesus of Nazareth, preached in Gal
lice, over 1900 years ago-be made
a reality"

with a well placed hit Rasmussen
got on base. He was advanced when
Rivette pounded one out on the lot,
and then Hanson drove in Rasmus-

play at second the umpire's decis-

safe, and he scored on the sue

that frame to take the lead. Their
scoring was well scattered through
out the remaining four innings.
And the locals scored two more
runs in succeeding innings.

THE best friends that this nation
has are it's veterans. The first or
ganized group to fight for the
maintenance of our form Of gov
eminent was the servicemen. Now
remember that Congress Is suppos-
ed to pass the laws, and then let's
go back to March, 1888. In March,
1898, during a great national crisis,
there was written by the executive
branch and jammed through Con-
gress, a bill enormously entitled a
bill to maintain the credit OF the
U. S. This bill took away the COM
pensation, care, disqualification and
benefits from the disabled veterans
of this nation :. The members Of
Congress did not write the law,
were not permitted to read 1t nor
to debate it before it became a law.
It was passed under Executive gag
rule. When Congress passed that
bill under those circumstances, they
became a, mere subject body Of the
Executive power, and serious in
Jury was done to our form OF gov
eminent. The National Economy
Act was the most cruel, vicious and
inhuman law ever passed by a civ
ilized nation. That law violated the
spirit of the United States Consti.
tuition, for it delegated to the Pres
ident, the right to enact laws al
fecting the lives, health and brain
and bodies of the nations defend
ers. The National Economy Act
was a revolutionary, dangerous and
radical law.
'fWell what were the results.
Perhaps the violation of the consti-
tutional provision that legislation
is a function of Congress was a
good thing and produced good
works. What does the record show
So cruel and inhuman was the Ma
tional Economy Act, that in one
county alone in California, IS dis
abled veterans committed suicide
within one month, and thousands
and thousands of them were thrown
out of government hospital. To
Economy Act made paupers of 3d.
600 veterans disabled in battle;
struck 154,848 service-connected vet
Grams from the rolls. The act wiped
out all presumptive cases, threw
out of hospitals and onto service
out of hospitals and onto private
charity, men sick with tuberculos-
is, shell-shocked cases, men unable
to work, helpless and crippled. This
contemplate inhuman law, struck
not merely the world war men, but
dropped fifty per cent of the Span
ish American Veterans, and cut
down the benefits of every veteran
in that war. Not even the aged and
crippled men who had saved the
Union were spared.
THE veteran organizations op-
posed the assault made upon our
form of government, by the Ma
tional Economy Act. The American
Legion and the v. F. w. are proud
of that fact
"At the present time, the atten-
ton of the American people is oc.
cupied by the proposal to pack the
Supreme Court of the United
States. Conservatives and Liberals
all over the country are disturbed
over the attempt. The veterans say
to the Conservatives who helped
the president put over the Econ
omy Act, but who now oppose th'
president in his attempt to contro
the Supreme Court-we say to then
that the proposal to reorganize tn
Supreme Court is simply logica

length on the services Of the men
Of the World war. That war is OF
such recent date that it was I'M
necessary for us to speak about 1t.
The community knows of our ser
vice better than we do.
IF we have come here simply
TO decorate the graves of men who
are dead-say a few nice flowery
things about them today, and then
forget them the rest of the year,
then our time is wasted. We have
come here because these men still
live. Memorial Day should be a
day of memory, a day of accounting
a day in which the heroic dead
speak to us, and advise us for our
good.
"Now these honored dead of Am
erica, from the cemetery here at
Sank Centre, and from the poppy
fields of France, tell us that they
died that we might live-that the
torchbearer of liberty and freedom
the United States might live. They
died, and you and fought, because
we thought it was war to make
the world safe for Democracy. Yet
today we look around and see die
tatorships in many countries IN
the world, and a disturbing ten
dency toward it, in many other
countries, including the U. s. Our
honored dead ask us today to sup
port and defend the U. S. Constitu-
ton which has been the best docu-
ment Of government ever framed
by human minds. 1t is not a perfect
document-it has been amended q
times, and probably will be amend
ed again to keep pace with the
changing economic and political
times. But that Constitution set up
the American plan of government.
George Washington, the great
Thomas Jefferson and the other
founders of the Republic, wisely
divided the powers Of government
into three separate, equal and Co
ordinate branches-the executive,
the legislative, and ! the judi
iciary, each supreme in its field.
Why did they divide the pow
ers of government into three parts?
They set up the three fold plan OF
government to prevent in the flu
ture, the establishment of a dicta-
torship, and the end of democra-
cy. Now what is the difference be.
tween Hitler in Germany, Mussolini
in Italy and Stain in Russia, and
our form of government. It is this
Hitler, Mussolini and Stain, pas:
the laws, enforce the laws and in,
terpret the laws, while in the U. S
Congress is supposed to pass the
laws, the President to enforce them
and the Supreme Court to interpret
them. Now if the power to enact
legislation is delegated to the Exc
cutive by a rubber stamp Congress
and the Executive is given OF
usurps the power of the Judiciary
then we have that type of govern
ment where all the powers of gov.
eminent are in the hands of one
man. And the founders of the u
s. were opposed to that form o.
government.
Our dead comrades tell us thi!
Memorial Day that the greatest is
sue confronting us, is that o
maintaining our Democratic form
of Government.
