MESS LINE
MANY IN RACE, CREED, CLASS
But One In Fellowship

The color, race and creed of Legion
fiaifes are many but we are all one
in coinradeship and we should ever
strive to keep that fellowship strong
and express it in uiiselhsh service. So
declared Our department chaplain, Rev.
Art Rustad of Faribault, in addressing
his Minnesota buddies at the fall con-
ference
Cotnrade Rustad expressed the belief
that the public is not fully aware of
the Legion's real work and its high
standard of service to God and Coun-
try. Citizens generally, he said, hear
of the more spectacular Legion par
AIDES and other demonstrations
looking the hard work of committees
working for peace, child welfare, re-
Mobilization, employment; community
service and other worthy enterprises.
Legion's Life Fleeing
"By their works we shall know them"
Rev. Rustad quoted, declaring that
he wished he could tell the whole world
about the tegion's real achievements
He pointed out the Legion's working
days are fast slipping away, and said
that we must enroll as many members
as possible while the opportunity
here for them to do things.
Our potential membership, Rev Rus
tad emphasized, is ever decreasing
thousands have gone West, day by day,
since the Arinistice :" so let's strive ex-
ira hard while we have the strength
to accomplish things of which we may
be proud"
Our country needs the influence OF
a strong and united American Legion,
Comrade Rustad said in conclusion

100 Anniversary OF
Elijah P. Lovejoy

Twenty-Five years before the North
and South were locked in mortal COM
bat on the issue of maintaining or abb
olishing slavery, Elijah p Lovejoy, one
of the first martyrs of an American
free press, was championing the cause
of the Abolitionists.
Sunday, November 8, will mark 100
years since a mob, melted by the re-
dictionaries of that day, descended on
the printing plant which was moved to
Alton, Illinois, smashed his machinery
for the fourth time and brutally muir
dered this fighter for liberty and free
dom. Lovejoy we'll takes his place be-
sides John Brown, Douglas and scores
of other outstanding Americans who
kept alive the traditions initiated by
our Forefathers in 1875. 1t will mark
100 years since reaction silenced the
brilliant mind of this fighter and hi
press which published "The Observer"
The new Midwest Peoples Daily will
take up this fight by conducting mer-
CHESS campaign for the enforcement
of the 1887 demands of the Negro peo-
pie to enforce the 18th, 18th, and 18th
Amendments of the United States Con-
stitution. 1t will add the many other
vital issues of the day which are the
concern of the American people. 1t
will be the. only voice in the midwest
not dictated to or controlled by~b big
money and its advertisers. 1t will
champion the unity of labor, the farm
er. the small business groups fighting
against monopolies, and all sections of
the people whose objective interests
are connected with the cause of labor.
1t is no accident that recent survey
of the midwest on current questions
revealed a decided backwardness of
opinion compared to other sections of
the country The Midwest Peoples
Daily decided upon by a Conference
on August p, intends to fill the need
lOl d pIOSl CSSlNC Champion III pOdSN,
progress and prosperity. 1t is no less
accidental that the tories and Liberty
Leaguers, like their fascist brothers in
Germany will hypocritically exploit the
very traditions that they are viciously
opposed TO in deeds.
1t has been announced that Kolby
College will honor the memory Of
T.ovejoy. The motive has suspicious
taint in the fact that former president
Hoover of depression fame and a die
hard reactionary will be the main
speaker.
Abraham Lincoln noted the murder
Of Lovejoy with the following state
ment: "Lovejoy's death is the most
important single event that ever hap
pened in the new world" The Press
Committee of the Midwest Peoples
Daily calls on all liberty loving and
democratic minded people of the mid
west states to participate in the COM
ing Tooth anniversary of Elijay Love-
Joy. 1t invites them to extend this
honor in a realistic manner by coming
to the aid of the 100000 Founders Fund

not seem to click, although the last

Baron Courageous Sportsman.

The tip-of on the way they feel
about the baron came in his
thrilling bout with Riggs yesterday.
When the mad young man from Cali
fornia, playing like streak, took the
nrst two sets, 60, 8-6. the big
crowd cheered considerably.
Yet the real tumult wasn't heard
until Won Cramm, unf1ustered at his
tremendous deficit, lifted his game to
lts peak for the first time in the third
set and began fighting back to take
three successive sets, 6-3, 6-3, 6-2.

partly by the fact that he had assured

and waiting for-another duel between
