Legion Leader Calls
For Full Overhaul Of
National Defense Act

American Legion Commander
Paul H. Grifith last night called for
complete revision of the National
Defense Act of 1916 and urged wide
spread expansion of national Sc
!curity forces.
Mr.. Grifith spoke at large
@home me-coming rally. at Uniontown,
Pa, his official residence, ON his
first visit there since he was elected
to head the Legion last month. His
Washington address is 1886 Livings-
ton street NV.
Outlining the American Legion
program, he urged unification Of the
armed forces and "modernization of
the armed forces to cover every
angle OF modern preparedness for
war"
Revision Of national defense legis-
iation, he said, should provide for
stockpiling of strategic war ma
terials. retention of bases, establish-
fnent Of q world intelligence service,
building of strong merchant ma
'rine, establishment of a long-range
program Of civilian defense and ex-
pansion of civilian reserve COM
pohents of our armed forces"
Universal Training Urged.
Mr.. Grifith also called for fast
action by the Eightieth Congress to
establish universal military training
along lines proposed by the Ameri-
can Legion.
Speaking on foreign relations, Mr..
Griffith called for a policy that
is hostile to none, subServient to
none: that appeases none and that
news to the line of justice for all
nations" Previously. the Legion
strongly Endorsed Secretary of State
Byrnes' policy.
A declared opponent of all eisms, !"
Mr.. Griffith said the Legion will
fight ''creeds which have for their
obvious purpose the undermining of
our American system and added:
I'VE believe that the capitakstic
way Of life, based upon free enter
prise and private initiative, is the
best pattern yet devised by man"
Higher Teachers Pay Asked.
A high light of the Legion Ameri-
canism program, he said, will be to
fight for more and better teachers"
through increased salary scales.
I'VE have degraded the teaching
profession with salaries that day
laborers would spurn," he declared.
Some lis resolutions calling for
legislative action on veterans af-
fairs are before the Legion's ma
tional legislative office, he said.
They include:
Abolition Of on-the-job training
ceilings; restriction of all immigra-
tion until January l, 1913; preserva-
tion Of veterans unemployment
rights and enforcement 81 their
preference in civil service jobs and
expanded social security provisions
Tor aid to dependent children.
!. MIR. Grifith termed housing the
returning veterans big worry" and
said the Legion would announce a
housing program from findings of
a special World War II committee
which held q. five-day hearing here
last week. ~

There is a strong possibility that

may have to draw in their belts
several notches and try to forget
those lettuce salads, radishes, and

their appearance at the evening

The reason: A severe labor short

Food Is Necessary
Yesterday afternoon, R. W. Galp-
hin, New Hanover County Farm
agent, painted dismal forecast
of acres of vegetables rotting in
the fields for the simple reason
that there may be no one to pick
them, put them in baskets, and
carry them to market.
