Legion posts have been request
ed to suspend all other activity

On the evening of Aug. 8, the

members. The quotas, if obtained,
would total $50 Navy enlistees for
the period, of which seven would
be from Coolidge.
This is the Legions first real
chance to show what it can do to
help win the war. The Navy isn't
fooling when it says it needs men
in the worst way" the Legion
post head emphasized.
He said that the swearing-in
