THEY urged that the United States
should RETAIN the powerful
Pacific Island bases with which the
American forces finally won the Pa
Cific War-islands won at terrible
cost in American lives and resources,
and now almost our sole reliance
against future expenditure of Ameri-
can lives and resources.
They insisted that the United
States, and its associated democratic
Allies-Great Britain and Canada
KEEP SECRET the processes of
manufacture of the atomic bomb.
They recommended the immedi-
ate and permanent establishment of
military and naval academies on the
Pacific Coast, in order that the
armed forces of the nation will al
ways have adequate sources of
trained officers, and that they will
be PROFICIENT in the tactics and
strategy of Pacific warfare which
still remains our greatest menace.
Let 1t be remembered that these
are the earnest and authoritative
views of FIGHTING men who do
not want to FIGHT AGAIN.
They have returned to civilian
life, determined to STAY in the
normal and wholesome and produc-
tive and fruitful atmosphere of a
peaceful America.
They do not want war again for
THEMSELVES.
They do not want it for their
SONS.
These are the men America
SENT to war.
I EFT America take advantage of
II their experience, take inspira-
tion from their gallant service and
heroic sacrifice, take INSTRUC-
TION in the ways of permanent
peace from the men who have made
it possible and have the greatest
stake in it.
The American Legion is THEIR
organization, for the perpetuation
of the comradeship they found in
war, but most of all for the express
sion and fulfillment of their hopes
and determination that there will
never be ANOTHER war
