Legion Convention
To Stress Help For
Returning Soldiers
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated PreSS.
CHICAGO, Sept. 1.-THE men in
this war will be much in the minds
of World War veterans when they
assemble here at the American Le-
gion's 26th National Convention.
The doughboys Of yore may recall
how they slogged about Belleau
Wood and Chateau Thierry, but
the major motif is business-and a
considerable portion Of that con-
Germs the Yanks who recently
treaked through those very parts.
On the list Of proposals for the
sessions September 18, 10 and 20
are a number dealing with steps to
help put the current warriors on
their feet, physically and financially,
when peace returns.
Coming up for consideration, too,
are suggestions to request Congress
to amend the Legion's incorporation
act so men now in the armed forces
may be eligible Immediately for
membership. Thousands who have
returned to civilian life already are
on the organizations rolls-at a
record high of 1,412,574.
Has 700 Resolutions Ready.
Among the TOO resolutions ear
marked for the hopper are a num-
Der advocating such plans as max
ing postwar credit available to vet
Grams of the present conflict, facili-
tating Government sale of farm
lands to them, and giving them
preference in buying surplus war
supplies.
Others call upon commercial firms
to reserve sales districts and agen-
cies for the men, seek to extend the
limit for applications for their old
jobs from 40 to 60 days, and ask
priorities for those who want to
establish air routes.
On the distaff side-recognizing
that 100000 women may be in Uncle
Sans uniforms before the enemies
are conquered, and thus would be
prospects for memberships a move
to create the post of national vice
commander at large, and to fill it
with a woman.
The agenda, in general, reflects
trend toward thinking ahead to the
problems to come with the end of
the war. The Legion's commission
on postwar America has outlined
program and plans to elaborate on
it on the eve Of the convocation.
The group suggests encouragement
of individual business enterprise to
aid employment, modified taxes on
individual and corporate incomes,
Evening star., 1944-09-11

and abandonment Of controls over
commodities, prices and wages as
soon as practicable.
Supports Foreign Policy.
The commission pledges support in
carrying on and developing the prin-
ciples of foreign policy represented
by the Teheran, Moscow and Cairo
declarations and the Connally and
Fulbright resolutions. It also urges
ownership or control Of island out
posts deemed essential to the Ma
tion's security.
Some resolutions forwarded by va
rious departments call for a just
and lasting peace implemented by
an international organization backed
by force. These and other proposals
will be winnowed by committees
before the pronouncements on the
subjects are submitted to the 1,780
delegates.
High on the list of topics is uni
versal military training. The present
national commander. Warren H
Atherton, has asserted the Legion
intends to seek adoption Of such a
law by Congress before peace is re-
stored. The proposed bill may cover
Evening star., 1944-09-11

Elimination Of the ban against
holding q Legion ofice by men who
hold public ofiice or who are
candidates for one.
The convention plan adheres to
the streamlined pattern In vogue
during the transportation tight war
period. Attendance is supposed to
be limited to delegates and ofncials.
Discarded again are the teeming,
12-hour parades of yesteryear, and
the sideshow band contests.
But top rank speakers will appear
onlkhe rostrum at the historic COLI
scum. Among them are Govern
ment, Army and Navy leaders and
Gov. John w. Bricker of Ohio and
Senator Harry S. Truman of Mis-
souri,, the Republican and Demo-
cratic vice presidential nominees.
