tits hard to believe that Roane War
ing, National Commander of the American
Eegion, was speaking deliberately when he
threatened to resign unless Pennsylvania
legion Post withdrew its criticism of John
L. Lewis in connection with the coal strike.
As we understand it, Mr.. Waring and
the American Legion insist upon American
gm, which includes the right to criticize
any public official.
: Certainly, any post of the American
Legion has right to pass any resolution
that its members approve No doctrine of
Iese majesty applies to the Commander Of
the organization and no Interpretation of
Americanism prescribes the right of mem
bers of an organization to criticize their
leaders.
Meanwhile, it is announced by the
Pennsylvania Department Commander that
ADMINISTRATION will be made into the action
of the Post, which, it is said, did not pre-
sent-its protest through proper Legion
channels. The result of the investigation will
be watched with interest, especially in view
Of the repeated proclamation of American
