American Legion Calls For US. Meet RedAgression with
 Armed Retaliation

WASHINGTON, R The Am erican Legion gave overWhelm- ing backing to proposal calling on the United States to meet any further Communist aggression in southeast Asia by immediate military retaliation.
 The Legionnaires agreed at their 36th' annual convention that this retaliation should be taken with or without the cooperation of the free nations of the world"
 In other major actions, the Le- zion voted:
 l. To oppose any move to bar the use of atomic weapons or to come to any agreement with the Russians on atomic matters at this time.
 2. To urge the nation to build up it's air strength and get going at once on an effective and ex- banded Civil Defense program.
 3. To give it's backing to the immediate rearming of West Ger many.
 4. To urge the United States to seriously consider" severing 'all diplomatic relations" with Soviet Russia and it's satellites.
 By overwhelming vote the con- vention adopted a report of it's foreign relations committee which said the veterans organization be- lieves that co-existence is inn possible with the Communists "because Soviet Russia and her satellites or puppets have not offered the slightest evidence of good faith.'
