In Virginia; Contest
For Offices Develops
By the Associated Press.


NORFOLK, Va, Sept. 15-A re-
volt against what its sponsors term
machine control of the American
Legion in Virginia was revealed to-
day with the announcement of a
slate of candidates to be submitted
at the department convention open
ing in Richmond next Sunday.
The slate is headed by Fred W.
Higgason, Norfolk, for department
commander. and Carl c. Brown
Alexandria, as national executive
committeeman. 1t was announced
by John Twohy II of Norfolk, as
chairman of committee which he
said was Statewide in scope and
dedicated to the election of off,
GERS free from encumbrances aug
mented by a program evolved from
experience and believed for the bet
terment of the Legion" in Virginia.
So far as could be learned the only
other announced candidates are
Morgan w. Strother, Richmond, for
department commander, and Fred
c. Buck, Abingdon, for national
executive committeeman.
Mr.. Twohy said the slate pre-
sented by the committee would con-
stitute the first complete ticket ever
to be placed in the hands of the
elected delegates in advance of a
Virginia Legion convention. He said
he felt no doubt that it would be
elected over a slate known to be in
the making by those recognized as
heretofore dominant factors in the
Legion"
Other than to say that the COM
mittee which he heads is deter
mined to give the membership of
the Legion in Virginia a fuller share
in its administration than in the
past, Mr.. Twohy did not disclose

Veteran of Navy
Finds He's Too
Young for Job

After three years in the Navy,
Walter Lohmann, 20, of 623 Green
wood avenue, Takoma Park, Md,
finds he's too young" for a job.
Mr.. Lohmann came out of the
service with a medical discharge
May %. A week later. he was mar
ried and ready to go job hunting.
The other day the ex-sailor came
into the Service Aid Council in Sill
yer Spring to find out about going
back to school. He told this story
Every place go for a job they
tell me I'm too young. I wanted a
chauffeur's license so I could drive
a taxi or truck but 1 wasn't old
enough. Then I thought about be-
ing a policeman but I wasn't old
enough for that either. 1t seems
kind of funny to be old enough to
spend three years in the Navy and
not be old enough to drive a truck.
Well, 1 think now I'd better 60
back to school till I grow up"

Job Survey Brings Results.
A job survey by the Board of
Trade of opportunities in the area
has brought the council continuing
supply of job offers-enough so that
most of the job-seeking veterans can
be accommodated on the spot. Let
tiers from would-be employers cover
the bulletin board.
Probably the most impressive ex-
ample of community cooperation,
however, is in the supply of volun-
teer talent. interviewers on the
loan committee represent every bank
and building and loan association
in the area. One of them advising
on home loans, for instance, is H. C.
McCeney, who is in charge of real
estate loans for the Suburban Ma
tional Bank. George T. Day. vice
president of the bank, is chairman
Of the loan committee.
The educational advice is given
by E. Merritt Douglass, principal
OF the Montgomery Blair High
School; William B. Marks, principal
OF the Takoma Junior High, and
Comdr. William F. Bulls, head
master of Bulls Preparatory School
Forty other faculty members of the
county schools are on call as inter-
viewers.
Legion Aids rehabilitation.
The rehabilitation work-which
includes all services covered by the
Veterans Administration is d.
vided between the American Legion
posts of the three communities with
10 men from Takoma Park, 10 from
Silver Spring and five from Ken
sington. Head of their committee
is Martin Iverson, Legion State vice
commander, and the interviewers
include several Veterans Admins
tration employees.
The Unemployment Committee is
composed of seven men, sworn in
and trained as Unemployment Of
f1cers by Montgomery Draft Board
No. 2. In addition, the County Bar
Association has put all it's legal
talent at the disposal of the COM
mittee.
In contrast with this community
corporation is the District center,
The citizens committee formed by
the Commissioners to recommend a
center set-up saw its proposals by
passed. No trained volunteers or
experts have been put to work. The
Washington Board of Trade offered
the services of committee to give
business counselling but has had few
calls for its services.
The one thing the center just
north of the District line and the
one south of 1t have in common are
the customers in search
OF information, assistance and ad-
vice.
