wyr irr sj y y ss ' EDITORIALS The American Legion Whon one considers the many threats which l'ace democracy today, and the sub versive and unpatriotic and divisive ele ments which seek to weaken the United States, the role the American Legion plays in American life is appreciated. The American Legion usually takes . patriotic and strong stands, and some times these stands irk those who feel that the Legion is "flag-waving." However, there has not been enough flag waving in this country in the last ten or fifteen years, ' and certainly it is a much-needed thing in the United States. 0 It, of course, can be overdone, and we do not believe that anyone should be persecuted unfairly because of nationalis tic or patriotic excitement. On the other hand, it is time that someone looked out for the best interests of the United States, and its survival, and the American Legion is generally sound on this theme. For example, at the last Legion Con vention, a resolution was passed blasting the United Nations Educational Scientifc and Cultural Organization. The resolution accused this agency of furnishing Amer ican schools with material that was "con trary to the American way of life." We believe this is a sound indictment, and that the resolution passed will do some good. Also, the American Legion adopted a resolution blasting Hollywood movie producers for pro-communist films and dialogues, and we think this is, and was, a much-needed indictment. Of course, the American Legion at its conventions has made some mistakes, but so has every other organization -and everyone. On the whole, the patriotic, "anti-communist vigilant attitude in the American Legion, as reflected in its na - tional conventions, is a good counter-balance in the sea of communist propaganda, communist agitation, communist - inspired race agitation, and other divisive forces which are at work among us.
