 Legion Neutral
 Efforts to line up the American Legion as such behind the various "citizens' movements" have thus far failed, though beginning was made at Monroe, Mich, and in other Michigan cities. National Comman- der Colmery of the legion was ready with policy. It is that legion- naires are not as such liable to ser vice as deputies beyond the common liability of all citizens, and that any Jaw enforcement league" activities in which they engage must be as in- dividuals and not as legion mem- bers. Colmery is intent on squelch- ing all attempts to draw on uni- formed bodies of legionnaires in a body for any such purposes.
 Perhaps most significant in the "citizens' movements" in steel strike cities, is a tendency to harden into a permanent movement when the strike shall have been settled. Youngstown Results?
 At a Youngstown, O., meeting of women, mostly wives of steel com pany foremen and minor Superin- tendents, to further the back to work" movement, several speakers advanced this view: We want to continue to meet after the strike and talk over affairs fn- the good of our city and our ny What we ought to do i5 4orrl pa-

 The league has grown to what Weir claims is 1000 members, and meetings held in nearby small towns in the county added many of them. At one such meeting CIC members from Warren and Youngs- town appeared in force. Weir has always averred they are welcome as members of the league if they would subscribe to the pledge.
 Letter of the Law
 Spirited debate at this meeting showed the real cleavage.
 A CIO lawyer maintained that people north of the tracks," know ing nothing of the issues, and hav- ing no interest, should stay out Of the strike situation; that the sit uation was abnormal, and that men on strike had the right to stop men from going into a mill to work; and that a rigid, literal enforcement of the law would mean certain loss of the strike.
 Weir maintained that all citizens have an interest; they must pay the taxes for increased cost of coua- ty law enforcement; they are losing business; they have, beside these di- rect interests, a general interest in law and order.
 That is our principal object. TO crystalline public opinion for law en- forcement," says Weir. In this case, nothing has yet been attempted be- yond that.

triotic organization to stamp out Communism what we need IS a permanent organization that will go out for cleanup all the way to the top." The Youngstown women agreed to continue along some such line after the strike.
 Thus the strike may be incubating results that will persist long after the strike itself is settled, results af- fecting and involving the many who feel themselves somehow vaguely "in the middle" as the giant forces Of labor and capital lock horns.

Brain TwizzIers By Prof. J. D. Flint

Twizzlers come from the strang- est places. This one was fallen into, 50 to speak, by an ardent fan who 1g also Q 'phone-booth artist. While Adding with 8 pencil and paper a conversation one day he drew two kriangles, one above the other. The top one had its apex pointing down, the other one up so that they joined and formed an x.
 At this point the wandering pen- kil started to leave numbers in it's wake. Each was digit an done fell nt each of the four corners of the hour-glass-like diagram. This seem- cd hardly enough so another digit fell at the intersection and then a vertical line appeared running from the base of one triangle through the intersection to the base of the other, and 10 and beholdI two more digits fell where the vertical line joined each of the two bases.
 Now, the strangest thing of all was that wherever three numbers were connected by line, they add ed up to twelve. With the seven little squares ready to receive their seven digits can you supply them so they add up to twelve as specified?
