REAL PURPOSE OF
"PEACE MOVEMENTS"
Characterizing efforts of certain so
called "peace movements' as insidious
attempts of radicals to gain controi
of United States, the Americanism
commission of the American Legion is
warning members of that organization
against participation.
"We know tliat war is terrible," says
a bulletin just issued by the Legion's
comi.ussion. Many nrave lives nae
been sto ritieed in defense of Ameri
can principles and ideals. Are we go
ing to allow desecration of these lives
by h lot of extreme pacifists who hide
behind the cloak of the Deity?" the
bulletin asks.
Gtirland W. Powell, director of the
i Aire: i nni-in commission, prepared tne
bulletin, in which he says that the
Y onions Peace soelety, the Woraens'
Pence Unign of the Western Hem-
re. :inl the Fellowship of Youth
for Pence are bodies which, in exact
in? anti-war pledges from members,
will preclude such Americans from par
ticipation in defense of the United
States, should it be drawn into wnr.
He rays that the efforts of these or
ganizations are used by radicals as
ools. and that, working n fertile fields
among The youth nnd Bible classes of
the nation, they are gaining strength,
ile urges that every American who
learns of such meetings attend, and If
possible present the patriotic vlew
':: of America.
". . . They are the tools of the
,;heviks. the revolutionary radicals
mi the communists." the bulletin
says "Nothing would suit them bet
rer than to have all Americans slim
pledces of this kind. Then they would
walk in. seisre our country and destroy
ear institutions. . . If there ever
v a time ;n the history of our na
tion that action is needed, it is now
wlifn such ant '.-American movements
i government." the bulletin concludes.
Trades or Professions
for Individual Posts
Formation of posts of the American
Lpi'.n to speoitically serve certain
trndea or professions is growing rap
idly. Many posts in the organization
number as members, doctors and den
tJstS, employees of great corporations,
member of fraternal orders, or some
other -roup that has a trade or similar
as a reason for their alhha
j '
tion.
On of the most decided of such
moremesta is that of advertising men.
a World war veterans, are asso
ciatlng themselves with the Legion,
and carrying on in their own line.
Strong posts of this character have
been formed in Chicago. New York.
Ptiiinrlplnhbi nnd Boston. In Cleve-
. . nc. MMuuiairf eT-pindvo-
1 . . Ill l"l l V -..-. v - - -
ly of advertising men is in process of
formation, and groups in St. Lonls
and Indianapolis include members of
printing find ailied trades advertising
men. journalists, circulation men,
printers, pressmen and similar profes
sions. From many of these posts come
some of the livest ideas in post adver
tising that are seen in the organiza
tion, and It is not unlikely that depart
ment and national officials of the
Legion will call on the man-power of
posts for he!; in preparation of adver
tising material In the future.
Legion Will Battle
Against Illiteracy
A move to wipe out illiteracy from
the state of Georgia will he undertaken
immediately by the American Legion
In that state, according to recent ac
tion taken at a conference of all posts.
The Georgia Illiteracy commission
will receive not only financial support
from the Legion, but the man power
of the veterans' organization will be
made available as well, according to
statements matJe by officials.
Georgia has more than 70.000 white
Illiterates, and the greatest need of
the state in combating illiteracy is the
pre ision of funds with which to open
schools for these men and women, the
Logionnaires were told.
Garland W. Powell, director of the
Legion's national Americanism com
mission, told the delegates present that
among these illiterates, radicals might
find fertile field for their work for
overthrow of the nation's institutions,
as the insidious propaganda of such
forces is spread through the unknow
ing. Painting Presented to Post
